Janine
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.

Diana
Certified online language teacher with over 15 years of experience in teaching German. As a life-long language learner myself, I know learning a new language is a challenging journey, requiring a different rhythm and dynamic based on your individual needs and learning styles. That's why I created different courses to assist you in every step of your German learning journey. I speak four languages, and I’m currently learning the fifth one. My experience in learning languages has a significant impact on my teaching style – I know what works and what doesn’t.

Simon
Native German teacher/translator specialized in business German for busy professionals in GER/CHE ✔ I'm an expert for students from an upper beginner to an advanced level (A2-C2) ✔ You'll receive a detailed feedback and homework after every lesson ✔ You'll get a list with every mistake you made during the lesson in a Google Document ✔ I start with pronunciation first - my main goal is to help you to just sound "good" to a German's ears. ✔ Once your pronunciation is on point, the rest (grammar, writing..) comes automatically! ✔ I would like you to find and correct your own (pronunciation) mistakes before I correct you ✔ That way you can avoid repeating the same mistake and your German becomes automatic ✔ That's the "Silent Way Approach": Book a lesson with me and try it out!

Matthias
Native German teacher, 9+ years of experience in the areas pronunciation, test preparation/ business ✔ If you are beginner, we will start with pronunciation first and then build grammar from there - that is the only way to sound native-like and avoid mistakes in the long run! ✔ If you are intermediate, I'll also give you a basic understanding of the German sounds to increase your awareness, with a special focus on the sounds you don't have in your native language ("sound gaps"). ✔ Throughout my lessons, I like to refer back to the individual sounds /aka "building blocks" of the German language - this has lead to great results for many of my students! ✔ I like you to find and correct your own (pronunciation) mistakes before I correct you (silent way approach)

Laura Hauser
Native Speaker – Personalized Lessons, Fun Learning with Creative Materials, Grammar & Test Prep! In Germany, I studied Art, Theater and Biology to become a teacher for high school students in these subjects. While living in Germany, I worked at different schools and I happened to teach more than what I studied for. For example, I gained experience as a German teacher for children with migration background and was head of class at a Montessori School. All wonderful experiences. I always tried to find suitable teaching methods for the different types of learning and individual needs to achieve the learning goals with the students together. And I'm always happy to learn more myself, too.

I am therefore aiming at establishing a collaborative relationship with you and keeping you motivated and inspired along the way. I look forward to working together with you!

Anna Sehal
Professional University Teacher with a PhD and 16+years teaching experience My teaching experience comprises 16 years: university tutor and a private language trainer one-on-one and in-group classes. I taught around 1000 students worldwide and helped them pass international exams, be more confident in speaking, get ready to write an essay or gain linguistic skills, and succeed in academic studies. I'm passionate about my profession, love it immensely, and devote myself to what I do helping my students master their language skills.

As your tutor I will help you: 1. to feel comfortable in everyday conversations in German. 2. to maintain motivation and to enjoy the process of acquiring a new language. 3. to become "your own best teacher" so you can make the most of learning on your own. I see value in a lot of different methods of language learning. However, the best method is useless if you lose motivation halfway, and even with a less efficient method you can be successful in learning a language if you have fun doing it. That is why I am convinced that maintaining passion and motivation should be on top of our priority list.
