Native German Tutor with PhD in Education, Qualified Teacher Status and 20+ Years of Experience Hallo! I'm Anneke, a native German speaker and qualified teacher based in the UK, but teaching online. I hold a PhD in Education; I'm bilingual in German and English; and I've been tutoring German privately for over 20 years—working with teenagers, university students and adults at every level. Whether you're preparing for GCSE or A-level exams, studying German at university, or picking up the language later in life for travel, work or pure curiosity, I'd love to help you get there. My teaching adapts to you. Sometimes that means structured grammar work. Sometimes it's conversation practice, close reading, or listening comprehension. What stays constant is that your goals shape the sessions, and I meet you wherever you are. I've spent more than a decade teaching and developing courses online, so remote lessons feel completely natural to me. And because I also work as a journalist and writer, I bring a real feel for how language works—the rhythms, the nuances, the moments where German does something English simply can't. What I love about one-to-one tuition is that it lets me build a genuine relationship with each learner. That trust is what makes it possible to teach in a way that's truly tailored to how you think, learn and grow. I also spent some time working in the British school system and conducted doctoral-level research on education in English schools. During this time, I co-authored a student textbook and a CPD handbook for teachers and teacher educators.

No super satisfied. I was asked if I enjoyed her teaching or not during our third lesson and she got the impression I wasn’t. I then offered feedback, and was told she wasn’t worried about her teaching methods after 20 years of teaching…. Then don’t ask me if I’m happy and expect just a yes or no. For me it’s important that teaching is done with empathy and not arrogance.
