Hallo liebe Deutschlerner!
I love helping learners of all levels gain confidence, improve their communication skills and feel more at ease with the language in real-life situations.
Outside of teaching German, I’m also a passionate yoga teacher, a lifelong language learner currently studying Spanish and fond of playing modern board games. I also value family time a lot: together with my husband and our two kids, I spent 140 days cycling around Europe in 2023 — an unforgettable adventure!
Please note: I teach adults only.Me as a Teacher
Since 2016, I’ve taught over 4,000 lessons to hundreds of students of all levels, from complete beginners to C2. Many of them have been — and still are — long-term students, which I see as the best sign of trust and progress.
One-to-one lessons give me the freedom to tailor each session to your goals, your pace and your interests, so you can make real, meaningful progress.
As I speak English and French fluently, I can explain things in one of these languages. My lessons & teaching style
There is no fast and easy way to learning a langage. Kids need years till they master their mother tongue. You have to invest time and effort. Therefore, motivation is key. Try to make the lessons a regular part of your schedule and take at least one lesson per week to keep you motivated.
We'll not only work on German grammar, vocabulary, speaking etc. If necessary, I can also help you with finding the right techniques that work best for you. Sometimes, it might also be important to discuss problems with motivation.
I look forward to meeting you!My teaching material

Katrin ist sehr freundlich, man lernt mit ihr viele Vokabeln und sie macht den Unterricht sehr produktiv und die Zeit vergeht wie im Flug. Ich kann ihr auf jeden Fall empfehlen, um Deutsch zu lernen.
