In 2001 I began to teach German as a Foreign Language at the German Cultural Center which is the official representative of the Goethe Institute in the City of Monterrey- Mexico. In 2012 I taught German at the University Regiomontana. It was very satisfactory to prepare students to obtain the Scholarships offered by the DAAD (Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst) to study and to do their Internship in German companies

Learn German with fun - don't be afraid of mistakes and let's have a good time talking :-) Language learning should be FUN! I want to help you feel RELAXED and not nervous when speaking German. Since I have many italki teachers myself, I know how important it is, to make the student speak. YES - YOU HAVE TO SPEAK! IN GERMAN! And I promise: It's not as hard as you think! Let's neglect the difficult grammar for a while and you will be surprised how soon you will be able to comunicate! Let me give you an example: What if I said: "Have he cat?" instead of "Does he have a cat?" - It's wrong, but totally understandable! -> So if you say "Er haben Katze?" instead of "Hat er eine Katze?" everybody will be able to understand you!

Professional University Teacher with a PhD and 16+years teaching experience My teaching experience comprises 16 years: university tutor and a private language trainer one-on-one and in-group classes. I taught around 1000 students worldwide and helped them pass international exams, be more confident in speaking, get ready to write an essay or gain linguistic skills, and succeed in academic studies. I'm passionate about my profession, love it immensely, and devote myself to what I do helping my students master their language skills. I'm always in search of the most efficient methods, techniques, and ways to make it better for my students, so I'm sure the best way you can teach someone is when you don't give up learning yourself all the time.

Hi, I’m Niels — a passionate language and politics teacher specializing in German as a foreign language. Since 2013, I’ve been teaching German in both private lessons and group courses — in Spain, Italy, and Greece. I’ve worked with learners from all kinds of backgrounds, from absolute beginners to near-native speakers looking to polish their fluency. My teaching style is communicative, personalized, and always connected to culture. I believe language learning should be more than grammar — it’s about understanding people, habits, and ways of thinking. In my lessons, you can expect clear explanations, patience, and a motivating atmosphere that helps you build confidence step by step.

Learn German in a relaxed, supportive way, and start speaking from day one. See you in class! I hold a Magistra Artium in Ethnology, Archaeology & Sociology – and yes, I worked as an archaeologist in Peru. That background shapes everything I teach. Language is never just grammar; it's culture, history, people. I love absolute beginners – there's something special about that first "Aha!" moment. Based in Spain, teaching online since 2016. Tengo una Magistra Artium en Etnología, Arqueología y Sociología – y sí, trabajé como arqueóloga en Perú. Eso define cómo enseño. El idioma nunca es solo gramática; es cultura, historia, personas.

I am a very patient and easy-going teacher. In my class mistakes are very welcomed because only through them, we can learn in life. I adapt my teaching to the student because everyone is unique, the learner has his own tempo and there are different types of learners like auditive, visual and kinesthetic ones. First, I want to know the student better, what he likes and then I will design the perfect lesson for him or her where boredom will be just an old memory.

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.
