Hi, my name is Franziska. I´m a nomad at heart and a very passionate traveler. To me, language is key to immerse yourself in different cultures and really get to know the people you´re meeting. I was born and raised in Germany, so I know the culture by heart of course, and I lived, studied and worked in Australia for almost 7 years - which makes me a bit of an insider for Aussie culture as well. My goal is to bring people closer together and I´m trying to do so with my three most favorite hobbies... traveling, cooking and teaching.

Me as a Teacher
I believe learning should be fun. I´m not a professional teacher but over the years I got quite a few opportunities to teach German and English for fun (sometimes, in Myanmar, for example, also for cookies...) and every single time it was a very special experience. To become an even better teacher I´m currently enrolled in a 6 months online TEFL (teaching English as a foreign language) course. So if the fun way is the way you like to learn - contact me, I´m looking forward to meeting you!
My lessons & teaching style
I want you to reach the goals you´ve set for yourself and individualize every lesson to your needs. If you need to improve your reading and/or listening skills, for example, I can offer you reading material and audio files that will support you in doing so. In my lessons I will predominantly use the target language with you, so if you want to learn German, we´ll talk, write and learn in German, if it´s English, English, of course.
To me it is very important to get a feel for the language you want to learn and I believe learning by doing is the best approach. To keep it fun - tell me what topics are interesting to you and we´ll chat about that!
An hour talking to Franziska is like eating good chocolate. It is such a good experience, you are left with a warm feeling, and you always want more after. Thanks so much for your patience and good humor - sehr beeindruckend!! :)

Danke schön, Franziska! Ich war sehr besorgt, da dies mein erstes Gespräch auf Deutsch war. Sie sind eine sehr interessante Gesprächspartnerin! Jetzt möchte ich mein Sprechen noch mehr üben!

My first lessons with Franziska today. It was easy to talk to her, and she explained different grammar in a way which was easy to understand.
