Let’s get to know each other and find out how I can best support you with your German.

During this 30-minute trial lesson, we will:

• discuss your goals, interests and previous learning experience
• have a short conversation or speaking task suited to your level
• identify your strengths and two or three areas to improve
• decide how and when you would like to be corrected
• choose a suitable focus for your next lessons

Beginners can answer simple questions with guidance and examples. More advanced learners will have a natural conversation so that I can assess fluency, vocabulary, pronunciation and sentence structure.

At the end, I will give you honest feedback and explain what I recommend for your next lessons. You will leave with a clearer understanding of your current strengths and the areas that will help you make the most progress.

The trial lesson is not a test. It is a relaxed opportunity for us to meet, speak German and see whether my teaching style is a good fit for you.

I look forward to meeting you!

This lesson is for learners who already have some knowledge of German and want to speak more naturally, fluently and confidently.

Each lesson is built around a conversation topic or communication goal that matters to you. Possible topics include:

• everyday life and social situations
• travel and life in a German-speaking country
• personal interests, opinions and experiences
• pronunciation and speaking more fluently
• natural vocabulary and everyday expressions
• meetings, calls and workplace communication
• more challenging topics for advanced learners

At the beginning, we choose one clear focus. You then practise through guided questions, role plays and natural conversation. The lesson is not a formal grammar course - the main goal is to help you speak and actively use your German.

I note important mistakes without constantly interrupting you. You decide how you want to be corrected:

• immediately while speaking
• after you finish your sentence
• together during the final feedback

At the end, we review useful new expressions, recurring mistakes and more natural ways to communicate your ideas. If you want, you will also receive a short exercise for further practice.

The conversation and feedback are adapted to your level. Intermediate learners receive more guidance and preparation time, while advanced learners can practise spontaneous discussions, precise expression, idiomatic language and subtle differences in meaning.

If you are unsure whether this lesson is suitable for you, tell me why you are learning German and what you would like to improve.

Speak German Naturally | Conversation Practice & Clear Feedback

This lesson is for learners who want to build their German step by step with clear guidance and practical speaking exercises.

Each lesson focuses on one topic or language skill that is relevant to your goals. Depending on your level and needs, we can work on:

• useful vocabulary for everyday situations
• sentence structure and word order
• grammar explained through practical examples
• pronunciation and clear speaking
• forming your own sentences with confidence
• understanding and correcting recurring mistakes

At the beginning of the lesson, we define one clear learning goal. I explain the topic in an understandable way and help you apply it through examples, guided questions, short exercises and practical conversations.

You will not only learn rules - you will use the language yourself. The amount of explanation and support is adapted to your level, learning pace and personal goals.

During the lesson, I note important mistakes and help you understand how to improve them. You can decide whether you prefer corrections immediately, after finishing your sentence or during the final feedback.

At the end, we review the most important points, useful new expressions and your next learning step. If you want, you will also receive a short and practical exercise to continue practising after the lesson.

If you are unsure what you should work on first, tell me your current level and why you are learning German. I will help you choose a suitable starting point.

Build Your German Step by Step | Clear Structure & Practical Speaking

This lesson helps you understand written and spoken German more confidently and expand your practical vocabulary.

We work with short, level-appropriate materials based on situations that are relevant to you. Possible topics include:

• everyday conversations and messages
• travel and life in a German-speaking country
• personal interests, hobbies and current topics
• announcements, instructions and practical information
• emails, meetings and communication at work
• natural expressions used by native speakers

At the beginning, we choose one clear focus. You then read or listen to suitable material and learn how to identify the main idea, understand important details and recognise useful words and expressions.

We do not simply translate every sentence. I help you understand meaning from context, explain unfamiliar expressions and show you how German is used naturally.

Afterwards, you use what you have learned through questions, a short summary or a conversation about the topic. This connects reading and listening directly with active speaking.

The material and level of support are adapted to your needs. Beginners work with shorter texts, clear examples and more guidance. Advanced learners can use more natural material, discuss subtle meanings and explore demanding everyday or professional topics.

At the end, we review the most useful vocabulary, difficult passages and strategies that can help you understand German more independently.

Understand German Better | Reading, Listening & Vocabulary

This lesson helps you write clear, correct and natural German for everyday life, personal communication and work.

We can practise different types of writing depending on your goals, such as:

• messages and emails
• descriptions and personal stories
• invitations, requests and everyday communication
• opinions and short structured texts
• applications and formal correspondence
• professional emails and workplace communication

At the beginning, we choose one clear writing goal. You can bring a short text of your own or we can develop one together during the lesson.

We work on:

• sentence structure and word order
• grammar and spelling
• suitable vocabulary and expressions
• clear and understandable sentences
• differences between informal and formal German
• more natural ways to express your ideas

Instead of only showing you the correct version, I explain the most important changes and help you recognise recurring mistakes. We correct and improve the text together during the lesson so that you can apply what you learn to future texts.

The amount of guidance depends on your level. Beginners receive clear structures, examples and useful sentence starters. Advanced learners work on precision, tone, style and more complex everyday or professional communication.

At the end, we review the most important corrections, useful expressions and one practical point to focus on in your future writing.

Write Better German | Grammar, Spelling & Natural Expression

This lesson helps you prepare for a job interview in German through realistic practice, clear language support and professional feedback.

I have many years of professional experience in HR and recruiting and have supported recruitment processes from defining candidate profiles to conducting interviews and filling positions. This allows me to help you understand not only the German language, but also the purpose behind typical interview questions.

Depending on your goals, we can practise:

• introducing yourself professionally
• presenting your experience, strengths and motivation
• answering common and challenging interview questions
• explaining career changes, gaps or difficult situations
• discussing responsibilities, expectations and qualifications
• asking suitable questions about the position and company
• speaking clearly and confidently under pressure
• using natural and professional German

Before the practice begins, we define the position, your experience and the areas you want to improve. If available, you can use a suitable job advertisement or information about the role as a basis for the lesson.

We then simulate relevant parts of a German job interview. I adapt the questions and level of difficulty to your language level, professional background and target position.

During the practice, I note important language mistakes, unclear answers and opportunities to communicate your experience more effectively. You decide whether you want to be corrected immediately or receive feedback after each answer or interview section.

At the end, we review your strongest answers, the most important improvements and useful professional expressions. You receive clear examples that you can use to continue practising independently.

This lesson focuses on German communication and realistic interview practice.

German Job Interview Practice | Realistic Questions & HR Feedback

This lesson helps you communicate clearly, naturally and confidently in a German-speaking work environment.

I have many years of professional experience in HR, recruiting, sales and team leadership. This allows us to practise realistic workplace situations and the language that employees actually use in their daily work.

Depending on your goals, we can focus on:

• meetings and professional small talk
• telephone and video calls
• emails and written messages
• communicating with colleagues, customers and managers
• asking questions and clarifying information
• explaining problems and suggesting solutions
• giving updates, opinions and feedback
• handling difficult or unfamiliar situations
• choosing between formal and informal German

At the beginning, we define one practical communication goal. You then practise through realistic examples, guided conversations, role plays, short writing exercises or your own workplace situations.

The lesson can combine speaking and writing. We can prepare for an upcoming conversation, improve a short email, practise a meeting situation or work on expressions that you regularly need in your job.

I note important mistakes without constantly interrupting you. You decide whether you prefer corrections immediately, after finishing your sentence or during the final feedback.

The amount of support is adapted to your level and professional situation. You do not need perfect German to take this lesson. We can begin with simple workplace communication and gradually develop more precise, natural and confident language.

At the end, we review useful expressions, important corrections and practical language that you can apply directly in your daily work.

This lesson focuses on practical German communication for real workplace situations.
