Hello! My name is Helena and I could be your next - most fun - German teacher! I am currently located in Berlin but I was born in Paris. I grew up bilingual and have been teaching for a decade now already. Time flies :) I love sports, social justice topics overall, reading, arts, learning new languages and anything related to animals. Maybe you can teach me something about your own passion soon!

Me as a Teacher

My main goal is to make you have fun while learning. Even though I do stick to grammar / rules and use classical materials such as books, audio resources and videos, I always try to gamify the class and find solutions for to class to be as interesting and matching your personal needs and preferences as much as possible. I highly encourage people to speak as much as possible and no attempt to build a sentence is bad. I got your back for vocabulary and hints.

My lessons & teaching style

I always recommend having 2 sessions a week of 50-60 minutes and dedicating at least 15 minutes daily to homework / learning rules or vocabulary by heart. Unfortunately there's no way around it in German. As said, the "robotic" side of German is due to the many rules - and their exceptions - which in the early stage of the learning journey you simply need to know by heart. Nonetheless, I go through old rules every time when I start the class, we refresh, repeat, and get new stuff in in each sessions. If you feel like we can speed it up -> we put the turbo modus on. If you want to repeat something or need clarification on some rules -> I do that. Every question has a right to be!
