✔ Take your German to the next Level I’ve started private teaching in 2014. I have no accent, and I teach in standard German. In the beginning I taught people from East Asia, but today my students are coming from all over the world. I'm particularly interested in languages like Japanese, Chinese and Korean. Right now I'm trying to master Japanese. Understanding how these languages are structured gives me the opportunity to teach you German in a more understandable way. In addition, I can help you, to pass the TestDaF, which is the general German language test for foreigners, who want to start studying at a German University. I've also experience in preparing students for the DSH language test and the Goethe-Zertifikat.

Passionate, patient and motivated language teacher helps you learn German. I see my role as a teacher as helping you find your own excitement for the German language, keeping you motivated, and guiding you step by step as you learn. I’m here to make it fun, encouraging, and all about your pace and interests. What really defines me as a teacher is my patient, motivating, and at the same time humorous approach – in my lessons, there’s definitely room for laughter and fun! ;) My background also sets me apart: being from western Austria, I’m very familiar with different variations of German, including Standard German, various Austrian dialects, and also Swiss German. In my lessons, I love introducing students to the linguistic variety across German-speaking countries.

Native German teacher | 4+ years experience | DLL-certified (Goethe-Institut) In 2020, I started working as a science teacher at an international school, teaching children aged 8–12. After completing a 120-hour TEFL course, I also began tutoring English privately for kids. Through these experiences, I discovered how much I enjoy teaching and supporting students in their learning journey. That’s why I decided to focus on the language I feel most at home with—German. I’ve now been teaching German on italki for over four years, working with learners from all around the world. In 2024, I also successfully completed the DLL (Deutsch Lehren Lernen) course at the Goethe-Institut, which further strengthened my skills as a language teacher.

I love sharing knowledge and ideas. I have been teaching and learning on italki for almost two years now. My specialty are 'General German' and 'Conversation Practice'. As a teacher, I create a friendly atmosphere where you feel comfortable and have the opportunity to speak a lot in German. Making mistakes is very welcome because it's a natural way of learning, although you are going to receive feedback from me so that you can notice your mistakes and correct them.👩🏻‍🏫

Multicultural community tutor with 3 years of teaching experience I believe in positive encouragement rather than harsh and strict learning methods! Language is a beautiful tool to speak to different people all over the world. Therefore it should be fun. If you enjoy doing something it is most likely that you will stick to the habit of practicing it. I just experienced it myself. When I learned Japanese I had a very kind teacher and thanks to his funny and encouraging teaching I fell in love with the language. Now, a few years later, I am fluent in Japanese.

Ambitious and immersive learning, adjusted for your way of learning :) You can expect an attentive teacher, who will carefully listen to you and provide you with helpful feedback and advice. All this feedback and new concepts/words/expressions learned I will write down for you in a Google Doc. I am always genuinely interested in my student's topics and therefore I know that we will find a common ground on which we can conduct our productive lessons. In general, I am a teacher who can talk about anything and use every moment as an example for teaching purposes. Last but not least you can expect a teacher with a high command of the German language and an ample repertoire of speech expressions. contact me for more: [email protected] or Skype (same email)

Speaking is the best way to learn a language, so my lessons usually center around having an actual conversation in German, but I will also give you grammar instructions and help you with pronunciation as and when necessary. If you struggle with any particular grammar topic, we can of course also dedicate a whole lesson to that. Generally I'm happy to adapt myself to your needs and preferences. While we talk, I make extensive notes in a google document, I write down new vocabulary with example sentences, grammar instructions, corrections, etc. You'll have access to this document during and after the classes.

Professional teacher with over 10 years experience I have a university degree (Bachelor and Master) in teaching languages and I have been teaching German, English and Spanish for over 5 years to students of different ages. My oldest student was 80 and I think he is a good example that it is never too late to start learning a new language or enhancing your language skills and taking your language learning to the next level. I'm a very patient and empathetic teacher who thinks mistakes are an important part of the learning process and whose goal it is to create a comfortable learning atmosphere for you.

⭐⭐⭐BEST GERMAN TEACHER ON ITALKI⭐⭐⭐ MY 4-STEP APPROACH IS UNBEATABLE ON ITALKI. In A2–C2 lessons, we have free conversations, often with pictures. You speak a lot while I type your mistakes and share my screen. Systematic errors? I explain the grammar clearly. You get vocabulary lists (before the lesson), corrections, notes, and a matching reading text (after the lesson). For A1 and absolute beginners, I use a different system with a textbook as structure and inspiration. The lessons stay practical and communicative, so you start speaking from day one. No time is wasted – you learn effectively and make fast progress. 😊 >Targeted preparation for the FSP with simulated anamnesis interviews

How much does it cost to take German lessons on italki?

The cost of taking German lessons on italki varies depending on the tutor you choose, their experience, and lesson length. On average, prices range from $10 to $50 per lesson. You can find both professional teachers and community tutors, with the former generally charging higher rates due to their qualifications and experience. Many tutors offer trial lessons at a discounted price, allowing you to assess their teaching style before committing to a regular schedule. To find the best fit for your budget and learning goals, you can browse tutor profiles, read reviews, and choose a lesson package that suits you.

How often should I take German lessons on italki?

The frequency of your German lessons on italki depends on your personal goals, schedule, and learning style. If you are looking for rapid progress, it’s ideal to take lessons 2-3 times a week. This frequency helps maintain consistency and reinforces learning. However, if you’re learning casually or have a busy schedule, taking one lesson a week can still be effective.

For beginners, more frequent lessons can help build a solid foundation, while advanced learners may focus on specific areas like conversation or grammar on a less frequent basis. Ultimately, regular lessons will help you stay engaged and motivated, but it’s important to find a pace that works for you.

Are the German teachers on italki certified or qualified to teach?

Many German teachers on italki are certified or qualified to teach, but the level of certification and qualifications can vary depending on the tutor. Some teachers have formal qualifications, such as a degree in German language or education, or specific certifications like the Goethe-Institut’s teaching qualifications. Others may have extensive experience in teaching German as a second language, even without formal certifications.

When choosing a German teacher, it’s important to review their profile to see their qualifications, experience, and teaching approach. Many tutors provide a brief introduction video, which can help you assess their teaching style and whether it aligns with your learning goals. You can also look at student reviews and ratings to gauge their effectiveness.
