Experienced translator and teacher with BA in Translation | all levels welcome A1-C2 Hello, I’m Kim, a native German speaker from the north of Bavaria. For the past 4 years I've been living in South Africa. I studied translation at university with English as my first and Portuguese as my second language. I’ve always been very passionate about languages and over the past few years I’ve invested a lot of time into learning Portuguese, French, Spanish, Hungarian and Afrikaans. Some of my interests include: languages, traveling, hiking, 4x4, history, psychology and economics. Since I’ve already learned various languages myself, I know how daunting it can be to start speaking in a foreign language. My goal is to make you feel comfortable during our lessons and to help you build your confidence. I will also correct your mistakes and show you the areas where you can improve. I want you to get the most out of our lessons that’s why I will try to provide you with notes and corrections so that you can continue to study even after our lesson ends. My classes are ideal for people who want to improve their spoken German, but I can also help you with grammar questions and writing if you want. ✔ I will correct your mistakes and write the correct version in the chat ✔ I can provide you with topics and materials to prepare for each class ✔ exam preparation for all levels is also possible I also offer a special course for beginners, who are just starting out with German or who don’t feel that confident at speaking yet.

Her corrections and feedback during conversation lessons are quite precise and effective. She also has the linguistic talent to make an intuitive guess to understand what I tried to say even if I got mixed up with the vocabulary. She corrects me on Skype or via a Google doc during the lessons and I review them occasionally. I have been learning German with her since my B1 training and I use these notes as a journal both at work and during everyday situations. Her proofreading also helps my understanding of the language as she explains the nuances and gives me valuable tips. Learning a language requires significant patience and an effective teacher knows how to model learning effectively. I think she is the one.

Kim was great to work with on our first lesson together. I am a beginner in German yet we somehow managed to stick to the language for 99% of the class! She typed every correction or suggestion in the skype chat box so I was able to go back and read what the proper phrase was to say. I took 3+ pages of notes after the lesson so her teaching didn't just stop after the hour ended!
