Certified linguist (MA) helps with test & interview preparation, Business and Medical German ***In JUN 26 - AUG 26 I have helped students to pass these exams with excellent results: telc, Goethe, C-Tests*** I offer: ✔ Test Preparation for telc, Goethe, TestDAF, FIDE, SDS (completed training for TestDAF, examiner for telc) ✔ Interview Preparation & Business - certified for Business English (I can help with Business German) / Job-coach ✔ Medical / Medizin - telc certified for doctors My native tongue is German. I speak accent-free Standard German and I am fluent in English as well. My background is linguistics (Master of Arts) with many years of language teaching experience and an understanding of the structure of languages. In my final thesis I explored how cultural differences are manifested in languages and how they are mistakingly carried into target languages by learners. I have worked as a language teacher on almost all levels. I have taught groups and individuals at university and school level as well as in business environments. Many of my current clients are from Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Furthermore, I love languages and constantly try new methods for my own language learning to put me in the shoes of the learner. My teaching style is goal-oriented and suited to individual needs. My classes are well-prepared and structured with the freedom to adjust to your progress. It is most important for me that you feel safe and free to make mistakes and at the same time experience a sense of achievement.

I had 2 weeks to prepare to do the SDS exam aiming at an A2. I booked daily preparation classes with Manuel during those 2 weeks. After 2-3 classes I immediately felt I had progressed heavily. Manuel has a very good technique, is very efficient, engaged and always comes prepared and provides excellent materials via different online platforms. I have now done the exam and received my results. I obtained an A2 in the listening and speaking section and a B1 in the writing and reading comprehension. These results are even better than I expected! I would recommend anyone preparing for the SDS exam to book classes with Manuel.

Excellent interview perpetration lesson. Manuel took the time to review my CV and write personal questions as well as go though a list of frequent and difficult questions. Manuel covered not only the German language aspect of the interview, but also mindset and approach. Very much a coach as well as a teacher. Shortly after the lesson I received a word document with all of the questions we went through and also feedback from the lesson. I couldn't be more impressed with the quality of the lesson. Highly recommended.

Manuel is a truly outstanding tutor: knowledgeable, prepared and professional. What I appreciate the most, however, is his compassionate approach. Manuel always seems to know when I need correction, when encouragement, when reassurance. In my experience, that's a rare gift! I can't recommend him enough.

I have been learning German at the A2 level with Manuel over the past two months and have an upcoming exam on 16.09.2026. I feel very confident going into the exam, thanks in large part to Manuel's excellent guidance. Manuel is an outstanding language coach who creates a supportive and relaxed learning environment. One of the most valuable lessons I have learned from him is the importance of focusing on what truly matters. Rather than getting overwhelmed by the countless rules and vocabulary of a new language, he emphasizes the key concepts, practical frameworks, and memory techniques that enable steady and effective progress. In addition, Manuel brings a clear structure to every session. Each class begins with a review of previous material to reinforce learning before moving on to new topics in a logical and well-organized manner. His teaching approach has made the learning process both efficient and enjoyable

Manual is an absolutely phenomenal instructor. Well prepared for lessons, highly responsive and he even generates custom learning plans and exercises to work on your weaknesses in a way that fits your learning style. I thoroughly enjoy how Manuel will use your interests and experiences to base his lesson plans around you. I have made tremendous progress (late A2 to mid B2) in my German speaking, comprehension and writing these last 6 months thanks to Manuel and it absolutely would not be possible without him. I highly recommend Manuel to anyone who is seriously attempting to learn German.
