Guten Tag! I am Bernd, a certified German teacher and native speaker from Leipzig—renowned as the 'Heldenstadt' (a title I’d be delighted to explain during our lessons). With over five years of experience in online instruction, including teaching for platforms like Babbel Live, I specialize in guiding students through German language acquisition, from foundational grammar to advanced business fluency. Hailing from one of Germany’s cultural hubs, I enrich my lessons with historical context and regional insights, emphasizing how language thrives through its speakers. Whether your goals are professional, academic, or personal, I am committed to helping you build confidence and proficiency in GeMe as a Teacher
I have been teaching my mother tongue since 1999 in classroom settings and switched to online teaching in 2020. Since then, I have worked with many students from different countries and backgrounds.
My teaching style is friendly yet formal, as the goal is to make you confident in the language rather than simply find a buddy – even if good rapport often comes naturally. This approach also reflects a German trait: it may take a little time to warm up, but once you do, it’s solid and lasting. My lessons & teaching style
I offer to cover all essential topics with modern and relevant PDF slides.
What you can expect in my lessons:
• We will move through the levels according to your needs, either by plan or spontaneously.
• We will regularly review earlier material, especially grammar.
• Special attention will be given to your pronunciation.
• We will practice the formal address (“Sie”), essential in daily and professional life.
• Whenever suitable, I will share insights about Germany and its people.
• Homework is possible but optional.
My lessons combine structure, flexibility, and a friendly atmosphere for steady progress with confidence.My teaching material
