Hi, Iām Jo Katsani ā a passionate native German teacher with over 16 years of experience. I was born in Germany and raised in Greece, so I speak both German and Greek as my native languages, and Iām fluent in English.
I hold a degree in German Philology and Literature, and throughout my career Iāve taught in public and private schools, led private lessons both online and in person, and volunteered as a teacher in Indonesia. Iām also a certified examiner for Greeceās state language exams.
I teach students of all ages ā from beginners to advanced. Whether you're learning German for school, work, travel, or certification exams, Iām here to help you learn with confidence, structure, and joy.Me as a Teacher
Iām an experienced teacher, but above all, I truly love what I do. My goal is for you to enjoy both the learning process and the language itself. I create a safe, supportive space where you can feel comfortable, make mistakes without fear, and grow from them. Iāll be right there to guide you every step of the way. I want our lessons to be effective, motivating ā and something you genuinely look forward to!My lessons & teaching style
Every lesson is different ā because every student is unique, and thatās my inspiration. Together, weāll tailor your lessons to match your interests, personality, schedule, and goals. With my academic background and years of experience, Iāll make sure each lesson is structured to be both effective and enjoyable. I place strong focus on pronunciation and proper language structure, and I promise: with consistency and fun, you'll soon be speaking confidently ā and sounding like a native!My teaching material
