Let's talk about moving abroad, travel, San Francisco, business startups, creativity & cafe visits. Some of my passions in life are storytelling, communicating and language. I have a background in academia and as part of my previous career have also received training in team building & communication skills . I have tutored English and German since 2012. I have a TEFL language instruction certificate and a postgraduate degree from the University of London, in the UK. I live between England and San Francisco, USA, where I give German language lessons to senior tech professionals. These experiences inform my ability to offer career focused and business language lessons. I am here to help you feel more confident with your English & German. Repetition and role play are just some of the techniques I like to use with my students. As I tried learning Korean in 2021 I understand what it feels like to try and overcome language learning difficulties. We will focus on all four language skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing to balance your overall comprehension and confidence. Or we can focus on a specific skills over the others. Learning materials will depend on your needs, you are welcome to send me your preferred materials. - course books - conversation - role play - work related My teaching style is friendly and relaxed and I would like to help you enjoy your learning experience, while also meeting your language learning goals. The lesson style and content will adapt to your preferences and requirements.

It was a stroke of luck meeting Birgit! I had to prepare for a meeting with a UK marketing agency, and she helped me a lot. Our lessons are always very useful and productive. She is a prepared professional with an interesting background in business, art and copywriting. She gave me suggestions for this meeting, my career path, and the English way of learning. I will continue learning with her!

I recommend Brigitte from the bottom of my heart! She helped me perfectly prepare for the interview. It was incredibly interesting to discuss my work (Digital Marketing). In addition, she had the ability to coaching and where I was afraid she led me by the hand, reinforcing my self-confidence as a professional.
