Patricia

Ich würde allen Lernenden auf italki eine Unterrichtsstunde mit Patricia empfehlen. Meiner Erfahrung nach ist Patricia eine der besten Lehrer*innen auf dieser App. Hilfreich, intelligent, zuverlässig, direkt, unterstützend: alles, was man von einem/einer Lehrer/in braucht.

Patricia is a great teacher. She is familiar with the small nuances of German, and can readily point out mistakes and imprecision. Because of her proficiency with both German and English, she is great at finding the best ways to formulate exactly what you want to express. She explains things well, and has had many insightful experiences as a longtime language learner herself, which enables her to understand and sympathize what you are going through in terms of language learning and the difficulties that sometimes arise out of it. Most of all, she is encouraging yet truthful, qualities one should be looking for in a language teacher. My spoken German has improved significantly with her being my main conversational tutor. I definitely recommend that you go and book a lesson with her!

Was ich heute gelernt habe, war auch Seher interessant. 1. Kleine Wörtchen”es” und 2.”vor”, “vorher “ und “davor “habe ich gelernt. Nach Patricias Unterrichtet habe ich das Gefühl, dass verstehen kann, immer Fehler gemacht habe. Das bedeutet nicht, dass ich alles sofort richtig beantworten kann. Danke, du mir immer eine sehr sinnvolle Klasse gibst!

Patricia is really an amazing teacher ! She is very intuitive and able to adapt to your personal learning goals. At the start, I was unsure about what level of german proficiency I was at. We decided to brush up on a few things like grammar and pronunciation and then Patricia helped me prepare to take the A2 Goethe Exam. We focused mainly on practicing speaking and writing together, but Patricia also went over the structure of the exam and sent me plenty of resources and materials to go through in my free time :) After the exam (which I passed with a 97!), Patricia helped me determine what steps to take next. We decided it would be best to work through B1 while mixing in different concepts from B2 and C1. Together we discussed a whole range of topics. I always enjoyed the conversations we had and the thoughtful explanations and feedback Patricia always gave me :) I can only recommend choosing Patricia as your teacher !

Heute hatten wir über verschiedene Dinge gesprochen. Es hat Spaß gemacht. Ich wünschte immer, ich könnte fließender Deutsch sprechen und hätte einen größeren Wortschatz. Am besten wäre es Bücher zu lesen oder YouTube anzuschauen. Aber aus irgendeinem Grunde ist das schwierig. Nun das ist meine eigene Schuld. Leider ich zwei Wochen lang keinen Unterricht nehmen, aber lass uns in der ersten Maiwoche wiedersehen, Patricia!

Patricia was very helpful with her words and explanations.
