With a Master's Degree in TEACHING, I have also worked in BUSINESS for over 20 years, mostly in the area of sales/customer service in Germany and Canada. I was always keenly interested in supporting people to achieve their goals in COMMUNICATION and started coaching colleagues from early on. I began my career as a BUSINESS ENGLISH Teacher for TAITRA, the Chamber of Commerce in Taiwan, 22+ years ago. Now, I have been living in Ecuador for 9+ years, and I have been teaching on italki since 2017. Ich unterrichte auch in meiner Muttersprache DEUTSCH für die GESCHÄFTSWELT!
Ik als leerkracht
Over more than a dozen years in Taiwan, I developed my skill-based concept of teaching, with an approval rating from my students of over 95%. I have been teaching all levels of an organization, from engineers as technical support for the sales team to the C-Level in one-on-one sessions to an auditorium of up to 100 students at the leading university in Taiwan.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
I customize each lesson to the individual student's needs and goals, providing specifically designed material to create professional, motivating lessons, always with the objective in mind to support my students in becoming outstanding communicators. My concept of skill-based teaching introduces the business skill (presentations, negotiations, conflict resolution, report writing, and more) using a practical step-by-step method demonstrating the skill’s role in the work world before proceeding to language work and role plays. I also specialize in Job Search, especially CV formulation & interview preparation. EXCELLENT Communication means EXCELLENT Career!

Actually this was at least the tenth class with Vera. From the first trial class to the second impressive 1 hour class, then to our speech script revise class two days ago, Vera has taught me a lot and helped me a lot. What I learned from her is not only English, but also including many cultural knowledge, business communication skills. She is more like a coach than a teacher.
Apart from her professions in English teaching and business coaching, Vera is always very punctual and focused. Is this because she is a German? :P
Lastly, Vera is a teach with very unique profile - A German living in Ecuador and teaching English. Is this special? Yes. But to me she is the best. A non-native speaker must know more about how to LEARN English but not acquire it before 2 years old. Once more, she is a German who knows the culture of my most stakeholders(German speaking guys) the best.
Please book class in advance(one or two weeks at least) as her calendar will be full very quickly.

EXCELLENT interview training done with an EXCELLENT professional" Vera is more than a language teacher, she is a career coach. She puts you under real interview conditions and makes you improve your answers. I am very grateful for having met such a wonderful woman. I definitely recommend her for your interview training. If you are searching for a professional teacher to improve your business English or German, she is THE one!

I highly recommend Vera to anyone who wants to make progress in learning English and/ or German. Vera is a unique language teacher because she understands cultural contexts for both languages - English and German. Vera can explain the nuances of speaking the languages very well. If you need to perfect your language skills, lessons with Vera will give you immediate results.

I have been having English classes with Vera for about half a year. I improved my oral English a lot. My key stakeholders can see my progress and give good comments to me.
To me, Vera is not only an English teacher. She is more like a coach and mentor. I discussed career development with her, and she always gave me advice like a mentor. I also asked help from her to rephrase my critical article or email, and she not only revised it, but also told me where the improvement area was and how to make it impactful.
Now I am facing a challenge to manage multi-cultural team. She also agreed to give me a lecture on culture. When I asked her how I could thank her with a commercial way, she said no need. She is a real teacher, a knowledgeable and kind teacher. I hope her a good health and happy life.
Lastly, I hope the electricity in Ecuador back to normal soon :)

In this class I learned Tense. It’s very important when I speak to my client or listener. If the tense were used wrong, it would cause misunderstanding. I will take care of tense when I speak in English in the future.
