TRIAL LESSONS CANNOT BE USED FOR JOB INTERVIEW PREPARATION OR TEST PREP!

B1-C2 

Trial lessons are the perfect way to get to know each other. That way both of us can determine whether working together is a good fit. 

[If you're a complete beginner I recommend starting with a professional teacher for the A1 level. I'm happy to tutor levels B1 and up.] 

Don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions. I look forward to talking to you! :)

Depending on your level in German, we come up with topics to talk about in order to practice your conversation skills: travel, politics, the cities we live in, art, culture, the news, your job, your dreams and goals - anything :) It doesn't matter if you're fluent or not, I will adjust to your level so that you don't feel overwhelmed.

Corrections and suggestions will be provided in the chatbox.

This class is NOT for absolute beginners. As it is a conversation class, you must be able to hold at least a basic conversation. (B1 and up. Please feel free to send questions prior to booking if you're having doubts about your level.)

*To accommodate back-to-back classes the lessons may end after 25 / 55 mins*

Conversation Practice & Vocabulary (B1-C2) -- Buy 15 lessons, save 10%!

*Since the teacher can't be an expert in all professional fields, the student is requested to contribute industry-specific topics and ideas.*

-> Keep in mind that you can print out your italki lesson or package purchase and show it to your employer, as many employers allocate a budget for language training.

After this coaching session, you will gain a significant boost in confidence for your upcoming job interview. I will offer comprehensive feedback on your responses to interview questions, while also guiding you through effective strategies and a winning mindset to ensure your success in the interview.

Please make sure to send your documents (CV, job listing) for me to prepare prior to the class!

Test Prep *mündliche Prüfung* - TELC / Goethe / ÖSD / fide / etc. - B1-C2

Falls Du dauerhaft in der Schweiz oder in Deutschland leben möchtest, musst Du vielleicht einen Einbürgerungstest (citizenship test / naturalization test) machen, um Dich einbürgern zu lassen und um die Staatsangehörigkeit und den Reisepass und / oder eine dauerhafte Aufenthaltsgenehmigung und Arbeitsgenehmigung zu erhalten. 

Wir können gemeinsam für den MÜNDLICHEN Teil dieser Prüfung lernen.

Dabei handelt es sich zum Beispiel um den Grundkenntnistest Zürich oder "Leben in Deutschland" und wir verwenden dafür die Testfragen aus der Schweiz oder die 300 Fragen (Gesamtfragenkatalog) vom Bundesministerium für Migration und Flüchtlinge (BAMF) in Berlin.

Auch möglich: Simulation der Gespräche für Niederlassungserlaubnis, Fiktionsbescheinigung und Daueraufenthalt-EU / dauerhafter Aufenthalt. 

Ich coache dich auch gerne für Schweizerischer Digitaler Sprachtest SDS und ähnliche Tests.

Es ist sehr gut, wenn du vor der ersten Stunde eine Nachricht schicken, dann können wir besprechen, für welches Gespräch oder für welchen Test du üben willst. 

Vielen Dank und beste Grüße!

Einbürgerung Schweiz / Deutschland / SDS (B1-C2)
