Certified teacher and linguist with many years of teaching experience As a trained linguist with many years of experience, I’ve had the joy of teaching students from all walks of life. From Russian and German at a Japanese university to shaping a Russian coursebook and teaching across Germany, Russia, and Japan, my journey has been all about helping people unlock new languages. I’m known for my patience and love for making even the trickiest language rules—like grammar—easy to understand. Whether you’re stuck on a word or curious about culture, I’m here to guide you. But what I enjoy most is watching my students’ progress (I know it sounds a bit cheezy :)) —but it’s the best part of teaching, knowing that every step forward brings a new sense of achievement.

Grüezi! A German & Swiss German teacher who likes a friendly and fun learning atmosphere :) I’ve been a dedicated italki tutor for 5 years, gaining valuable experience with diverse students. Additionally, I have over 8 years of experience coaching acrobatics online with a global audience. I’ve also assisted Japanese Aikido teachers in Switzerland as a translator. These experiences have enriched my teaching skills and deepened my understanding of effective communication. Recently, I launched my YouTube channel, 'Swiss German Storytime,' featuring engaging content on reading and listening comprehension. I also run a Patreon page with Swiss German materials to support your learning.

German and Spanish native language speaker with years of experience of teaching Not at all strict, a class with a lot of conversation increases the versatility of learning, and I believe that anyone can learn a new language regardless of their current level. Nicht streng, ein Kurs mit viel Konversation fördert die Vielseitigkeit des Lernens, und ich bin überzeugt, dass jeder, unabhängig von seinem aktuellen Niveau, eine neue Sprache lernen kann. Para nada estricto, una clase con mucha conversación aumenta la versatilidad en el aprendizaje y considero que cualquiera puede aprender un idioma nuevo cualquier nivel que tenga.

I'm a very patient and empathetic teacher who thinks mistakes are an important part of the learning process and whose goal it is to create a comfortable learning atmosphere for you.

Approachable, curious, genuine ... somewhat silly. 😌 I do not offer grammar lessons, and I work exclusively with fluent speakers. My lessons are laid back. I am good at listening, helping you find the right words, and I'll correct you if necessary. I will also type the words down in the chat if you find it useful. Session recordings are welcome.

In the past I have lived in many countries. Whenever I am back home in Germany I go back to driving an abulance. My students appreaciate my slow and clear speech. I am very patient - I dont mind repeating myself over and over again :) Repetition is essential. I encourage students to make mistakes as they catalyse the learning process.

I'm a perfectionist. I like to see my students succeed. My students have a very high (above 90%) success rate when it comes to passing their language exams. Having been a language learner by myself, I have unbeatable strategies to pass even the most difficult exams (IELTS, TOEFL, FCE). Having learnt different languages allows me to shift between grammatical terms and explanations easily: if you learn Hungarian with me, you can be sure that I can relate it to one of the other languages you are speaking - thus making it easier and easier to proceed! :)Call me now to get a trial lesson with me! :))
