No dry textbooks—just practical, effective learning. I help professionals build real-world language skills that work—so you can speak clearly, handle interviews with ease, and feel confident in any business setting. Since 2012, I’ve been teaching German and Dutch, combining years of corporate experience (I used to be a senior manager in finance and hold an MBA) with certified career coaching. Let’s work together to boost your German and take your career to the next level.

Wow, I can't believe it, I've been one of Marianne's students for about a year now, and I am stunned on how much progress I have made tackling German Grammar because of her! It was such a daunting task before I started my lessons with Marianne and I often wondered if I would ever be able to get the hang of this beautiful and complex language. I am happy to say that it is no longer a large confusing mess, but something that has a wonderful logic to it and every lesson, more pieces of the overall puzzle become more clear and make sense to me. Marianne is a fantastic teacher and helps with every question and guides you through the most complicated of sections with ease and makes things easy to understand. I am so happy I was able to find her. Definitely give her a shot; she is worth it!

I've had the pleasure of taking Marianne's "Konversationskurs" in German for the last three months now. Whilst I already had a fairly strong grammatical knowledge of the language, she has in such a short span of time completely transformed my confidence and ability to converse fluently in German. Her attention to detail, and collaborative and patient approach, makes one feel totally comfortable in class and motivated to continue learning. Danke dir, Marianne!

Lernen mit Marianne ist einfach super! Sie bereitet immer viele Übungen vor und schafft es, die Sprache in kleine, leicht verständliche Stücke zu teilen. Außerdem gibt sie regelmäßig Hausaufgaben, was mich sehr hilft. Seit ich mit ihr lerne, habe ich das Gefühl, dass mein Deutsch viel verbessert hat. Ich bin wirklich dankbar für ihre engagierte und strukturierte Art zu unterrichten. Danke Marianne! :)

I passed my B2 exam at the Goethe-Institut earlier this year. This was possible thanks to studying with Marianne. Learning German with Marianne is targeted and focuses on the areas that are important to me. My focus is on grammar and speaking. Marianne has a clear understanding of German grammar and can teach it easy and fast! I have now achieved my goal of getting a job in Switzerland and continue improving my speaking by having conversation classes with Marianne.

I have completed three classes with Marianne. If you are looking for a seasoned teacher, not a skill everyone has, book a class with Marianne. Also, I appreciated finding a German speaking teacher on Italki that has been in the corporate business world and is able to provide practice in conversation used in business practice.

I've been working with Marianne for about 4 months, and I needed some help because I'm about to move to Germany for work. The lessons are well structured, with opportunities to practice my speaking skills, grammar explanations and exercises. This has not only boosted my confidence, but also given me some solid foundation for my speaking and understanding of the language. I highly recommend working with her!
