Energetic, fun and REAL CONVERSATION classes with a motivated teacher 🗣️🇩🇪 I am a teacher but first and foremost I am also a forever student. Through my work as an Aupair in which I practised German with Kids aged 6 to 10 and through my language studies at University I learned that you can only teach others if you are also willing to learn and consistently drive to better your own skills. From learning many foreign languages myself I have developed my own personal hacks and tips on how to most effectively learn a new language. I accept lesson cancellations or reschedules with less than 24 hours in advance. However, this depends on my current lesson demand and schedule therefore I will decide on that for each individual case.

Certified CELTA instructor with more than 20 years experience teaching in-person and online. If I have one regret in life, it is that I didn't start teaching earlier. It is a second career for me and I enjoy it very much. One of the best things is hearing and seeing people of all ages begin to gain confidence using one of the languages I love and enjoy teaching.

Aufgeschlossene Kommunikationspartnerin Sprachen leben davon gesprochen zu werden, weswegen es hauptsächlich darum geht alltägliche Kommunikation zu führen. Andere verstehen und verstanden werden ist erstmal das wichtigste und die fachlich korrekten Ausdrucksweisen kommen dann automatisch. Auch wenn man vielleicht noch unsicher beim sprechen ist, weil man das schlecht alleine üben kann, sind Unterhaltungen ein ganz wichtiges Element, wenn man eine neue Sprache lernt. So werdet ihr nicht nur euer jetziges Sprachniveau halten, sondern auch verbessern, indem ihr Redewendungen, bestimmte Formulierungen oder neue Wörter kennenlernt.

German teacher with around a decade of experience and about 6000 lessons with 800+ students. German obviously is my native language, and I basically have a whole life of experience speaking English at work or privately. Russian is my 3rd strongest language, and although I have no certificates confirming that, I can teach you that language up to a pretty high level, as you can see from my intro video. Besides that, I am also very interested and knowledgeable in the field of linguistics and I can help you with pronunciation and accents on a semi-professional level by applying things like the IPA, speech training and logopedic practices. Having said that, I do not specialize in teaching children and I very much recommend looking for a teacher that is experienced in that field.

I have taught German and English in several different circumstances. During my early internships in China I organized basic German and business level English trainings. In the German Chamber of Commerce, I was also involved in editing a yearly bi-language training brochure for special trainings in Shanghai. But I also taught English and German for a year in kindergarten, where I focused on fun in acquiring a new language. In Germany I mainly taught German privately, mainly focusing on the Testdaf-exam but also the German high school-diploma Abitur. Occasionally, I also prepared students for the TOEFL-Exam.

Language learning needs structure, humour, and the right kind of obsession. I bring all three. I’ve taught Dutch and French in secondary school, and German and Dutch in adult education. I’ve been tutoring since I was a student myself — in law, languages, and study skills. My lessons are conversation-based, flexible, and adapted to your needs. I won’t give you a step-by-step textbook course — instead, I’ll coach you through real-life communication, at your level and pace. I don’t teach Dutch from scratch, but if you already speak a little, I’ll help you build fluency, confidence, and clarity. Because language is a skill — and you only learn it by using it.

✔ Take your German to the next Level I’ve started private teaching in 2014. I have no accent, and I teach in standard German. In the beginning I taught people from East Asia, but today my students are coming from all over the world. I'm particularly interested in languages like Japanese, Chinese and Korean. Right now I'm trying to master Japanese. Understanding how these languages are structured gives me the opportunity to teach you German in a more understandable way. In addition, I can help you, to pass the TestDaF, which is the general German language test for foreigners, who want to start studying at a German University. I've also experience in preparing students for the DSH language test and the Goethe-Zertifikat.
