My teaching style is very open minded and flexible. During the intro I find out what the students require and how committed they are to their goals. I adapt my style to theirs: with some students I will be more laid back and with the more ambitious and focused ones (my favorites) I will more actively plan ahead. Both will get links to their hobbies/profession/studies. i am known to be "living with my students" and rejoice at their success e.g. passing the language to get the visa to reside in the UK.

Let’s Talk in German – Step by Step Together I always prepare lessons that match each student’s goals and interests. Since everyone on italki learns differently, I like to make sure every class feels personal and relevant. I also believe that the best way to get better at a language is simply to speak it a lot!

Teacher with the state exam, a Master of Education & a teaching certificate of the Goethe Institute! As a teacher I have gained a lot of experience in different school types, social classes, but also cultures and countries and therefore I cover a broad spectrum. My wish is to make your learning process as easy as possible, because I can put myself in your situation very well. Due to my teacher training I can fall back on many methodical tools which will make learning easier for you.

German native speaker (Standard German) with a passion for teaching and learning languages. For several years now, I have had numerous video calls with people from many countries of all continents including a lot of English, French and Spanish native speakers, practising my own foreign languages and helping them to improve their German. So if you speak any of the languages mentioned above, I can assure you that I am very well aware of the typical challenges you encounter with regards to German grammar and pronunciation. I prefer an informal and relaxed teaching style. Besides my passion for languages, I enjoy reading, running, travelling, photography, psychology, philosophy, learning about different lifestyles and cultures, and many more.

Erfahrener Deutschlehrer (ideal für B1 bis C2) I've studied to be a teacher in Germany (university of Wuppertal).

Ich habe in Deutschland "Lehramt" studiert (Uni Wuppertal). Aber mehr als theoretisches Wissen habe ich in meinem Leben viele praktische Kenntnisse und Fähigkeiten erworben, indem ich Menschen Sprachen, aber auch Softwareprodukte oder das Führen von Verkaufsgesprächen beigebracht habe (Vertriebstrainer und Ausbildungsleiter, Allianz Versicherung)..

Tutor in German literature, philosophy and art As a teacher I apt for mutual respect, always trying to foster my students' skills instead of being too insistent on their weaknesses. Depending on the respective level of my students, I give them different - often more creative - tasks in order for them to become familiar with difficult demands such as German grammar in a more playful way.

I love teaching German 😊 Dear Students, Teaching is something I truly love. My goal is to help you learn German in a relaxed yet focused environment—on your schedule and at your own pace. Our shared objective: that after each 60-minute lesson, you walk away knowing more about the topic than you did before—*and* we’ve had an enjoyable time learning together 😊 A little about me: • I previously owned two language schools in Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spain. • I’m also the author of *Aber Gern! Deutsch im Hotel*, Volumes 1 and 2 — coursebooks I created for German classes at the BPLP Hotel College in Bali, Indonesia

Not sure where to start or how to feel more confident speaking German? Good. That's where we begin. I hold a Magistra Artium in Ethnology, Archaeology & Sociology – and yes, I worked as an archaeologist in Peru. That background shapes how I see language: not just grammar, but culture, history, people. It's what makes every learner's story interesting to me. I am based in Spain and teaching German online since 2016. Tengo una Magistra Artium en Etnología, Arqueología y Sociología – y sí, trabajé como arqueóloga en Perú. Esa formación define cómo entiendo el lenguaje: no solo gramática, sino cultura, historia, personas. Es lo que hace que la historia de cada estudiante me resulte genuinamente interesante. Vivo en España y llevo enseñando alemán en línea desde 2016.

Speak German Naturally – With Guidance, Structure, and Joy I began teaching German professionally in 2017. In a refugee education project, I worked with mixed-level groups — from literacy classes all the way to B2. My focus was always on communication and pronunciation, helping learners use the language confidently from the very beginning. To bring German to life, I organized trips and excursions connected to our lesson topics, giving students the chance to apply what they learned in real situations. For me, this is the most powerful motivation in language learning: experiencing that you can use the language in everyday life!

My work as a teacher includes teaching groups, kids and private students and preparing them for exams from beginners to B2. Some of my students want to improve their skills in order to study in Germany or a German-speaking country. Others need to improve their language skills because of their work in a corporate environment. My classes focus on language skills, such as fluency for professional and private settings, preparing for job interviews or presentations, and dealing with all kind of real-life situations the students may face.

German through dialogue, focus, and inspiration Lessons with me are not just 60 minutes of German. This is not about “covering the material.” It is about being in dialogue, attention, and real connection. I hold a Master’s in Pedagogy (Switzerland) and a Bachelor in Pedagogy (Russia), and I have Goethe Certificate C2 in German (2023) and C1 in English (2021) + Russian and Spanish. I have over 10 years of experience teaching children and adults in schools and language centers (Moscow, Bern, Malta, Barcelona). Here, it’s not about being perfect. It’s about being engaged. You are hearty welcome!

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.
