Kathy ist eine deutsche Lehrerin, die fĂźnf verschiedenen Sprachen beherrscht hat. Basierend auf ihre Erfahrungen beim Erlernen mehrerer Fremdsprachen, hat sie eine effiziente Herangehensweise gefunden, um Fremdsprachen zu erlernen und zu unterrichten. Während des vergangenen halben Jahres, habe ich eine groĂe Menge an deutscher Kenntnissen von ihr erworben. GlĂźcklichweise habe ich die Goethe B2 PrĂźfung im Ende Mai bestanden. Wenn Sie auch Deutsch lernen wollen, ist Kathy eine ausgezeichnete und passende Lehrerin fĂźr Sie.

Kathy is a wonderful teacher â professional, punctual, and very well structured.
Her lessons are always clearly planned, focused, and efficient. She truly values both her time and mine, which I really appreciate.
Kathy gives thoughtful, precise feedback and has an impressive ability to quickly understand your level and learning needs. This makes every lesson feel meaningful and well targeted from the very start.
I genuinely enjoy our lessons, not only because of their high quality, but also because of the positive, calm, and supportive atmosphere she creates. I always leave the lesson feeling motivated and confident, and I can clearly see my progress.
I can highly recommend Kathy to anyone looking for a teacher who combines structure, professionalism, and a warm, encouraging approach.
Thank you so much, Kathy! Iâm really happy I found you.
