Hi! I am Larissa, I am 30 years old and originally from Frankfurt, Germany. For over 5 years now, I've been traveling the world and living abroad in places like Costa Rica and Australia. I love meeting people from all over the world, exploring other cultures and countries. Language learning is another passion of mine. I am fluent in English, I speak Spanish and am currently learning French. Aside from that I have a Bachelor's degree in communication science, journalism and sociology.Me as a Teacher
Since moving abroad in 2019, I have been teaching German as a foreign language via video chat or in face-to-face sessions. My students come from all over the world, from various age groups and have different skill levels. I really enjoy meeting people and teaching them my native language. It is important to me to create a friendly and judge-free atmosphere for my students where they feel comfortable just speaking and asking questions.My lessons & teaching style
I like to work with a variety of free online sources but am also open to work with any material that my students bring to class. Depending on your skill level, we might start at the very beginning, dig into some grammar, do listening, reading and/or conversational practices. The structure of the class is very flexible and according to the student's skill level and requirements.My teaching material

Larissa is amazing! She makes you talk a lot and corrects you everytime you make a mistake, which was the 2 main things i was looking for in a teacher. She's very nice and very pleasant, i recommend her 10000%!!

Larissa is excellent! Super patient, calm, friendly and is great at asking questions and keeping the conversation moving. I love chatting with her and I don't feel self conscious at all about my stumbling German. I'd highly recommend her!

Larissa is a fantastic teacher! She is always well-prepared for my lesson with lots of grammar and vocab to learn/review. While I'm still growing more confident with speaking, she makes gentle corrections while guiding my learning.
