Learning German with Mahmoud has been an absolute game-changer. I am currently reaching the B2 level, and from day one, he made me feel completely at ease. He adapted perfectly to my learning style while keeping me challenged with incredibly interactive lessons. One hour with him is a real workout for the brain! He is methodical, courteous, and truly caring about his students' progress. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to level up their German!

I've had 100 lessons with Emily and I couldn't be happier with having selected her as my teacher. As an older person I truly appreciate her patience when I struggle to formulate sentences due to my lack of vocabulary and grammar structures. She gives me time to think and then will give me hints so I can finish my sentence. During our conversations she will add new vocabulary gradually so that I can expand my vocabulary over time without being overwhelmed. I highly recommend her if you are interested in learning one of the languages she teaches.

Helmut is a great teacher! He is clear, patient, and well prepared. He gets you speaking from the start, explains grammar in a way that actually sticks, and gives useful homework. Lessons feel structured but relaxed. I always finish more confident than I started. I like that the classes feel personal. He adapts to my level and goals instead of running a one-size-fits-all lesson. I leave each session feeling more confident and with something concrete I can use. Helmut is Punctual, professional, and motivating. Highly recommended if you want a native teacher who will get you talking. I am going on exchange to Germany in a month and thanks to Helmut I feel fully prepared !

Ich lerne derzeit Deutsch auf C2-Niveau, und Samantha wählt die Themen und den Wortschatz für mein Niveau hervorragend aus. Sie hat eine wunderbar klare und verständliche Aussprache. Mir gefällt besonders, dass sie neben den Lernmaterialien auch authentische Materialien auswählt und mir Ressourcen zum zusätzlichen Deutschlernen empfehlen kann. Vielen herzlichen Dank!

Anne ist eine sehr geduldige und liebe Deutschlehrerin. Sie ist die beste Sprachpartnerin, die ich mir wünschen konnte. Ich habe ihre Sprachübungen gebucht und meine Zufriedenheit könnte nicht größer sein. Sie bringt immer ihre eigenen Themen mit, über die wir reden können. Das finde ich sehr hilfreich, weil ich meine Fähigkeit beim Sprechen verbessern möchte und es keinen besseren Weg für mich gibt, als über ein Thema sprechen zu müssen, auf das ich mich nicht vorher vorbereiten kann. Anne hat eine große Empathie für ihre Lernenden. Dadurch kann ich mit ihr ganz entspannt auf Deutsch sprechen, auch wenn ich weiß, dass ich viele Fehler mache. Unter anderem werden meine Tage nach unseren Stunden durch ihre positive Energie beeinflusst und danach habe ich bessere Laune.

Conny is an amazing, wonderfully talented teacher with a real passion for it. We've been having classes for a long time now and it's always a blast. We end up discussing deep, unusual, and exciting topics, and I always leave the class with some food for thought. Our conversations flow naturally, and I don't feel judged for making mistakes or taking a bit longer to find the right word. Conny readily supplies me with correct and authentic vocabulary in the chat, which I can always revise later. I really like Conny's teaching style — I think she has a way of making every student feel a lot more confident about their German skills than they would otherwise. So if you're looking for a supportive and invested teacher that will encourage you every step of the way, Conny is your perfect choice!

Margo is a fantastic teacher. She is engaging, speaks very clearly, and is genuinely interested in her students. She has a pedagogical mindset, and this combined with her indubitable command of German means that she will be able to effectively help you find the right synonyms, figure out the right nuances, and help you phrase your sentence to precisely express what you were hoping to convey in a natural and native-sounding way. She is also visibly dedicated to - and enthusiastic about - teaching, and will give you plenty of tips, thorough written feedback and vocab sheets. She is never short of interesting conversation topics, and will seamlessly string them together, so much so that even an hour ends up going by surprisingly fast. Would strongly recommend for German lessons, regardless of your level!

Ich kann den Unterricht bei Daniel auf jeden Fall empfehlen. Er hat mir sehr bei der Vorbereitung auf die Goethe-B2-Prüfung geholfen. Die Stunden waren immer gut strukturiert und klar auf mein Ziel ausgerichtet. Besonders hilfreich fand ich, dass Daniel mir regelmäßig Hausaufgaben gegeben und diese anschließend sorgfältig korrigiert hat. Während des Unterrichts habe ich kontinuierlich konkretes Feedback zu meinen Fehlern und Verbesserungsmöglichkeiten bekommen. Außerdem hat Daniel viele sehr nützliche Lernmaterialien und Ressourcen mit mir geteilt, die für meine Prüfungsvorbereitung wirklich einen großen Unterschied gemacht haben. Daniel war immer unterstützend, geduldig und zuverlässig. Alle Stunden haben pünktlich begonnen, und die Zusammenarbeit war insgesamt sehr angenehm und professionell. Ich habe den Unterricht sehr genossen und würde ihn besonders Lernenden empfehlen, die sich strukturiert und gezielt auf eine Deutschprüfung wie das Goethe-Zertifikat vorbereiten möchten.

I highly recommend Nikolija to any motivated German learner who wants to make fast, structured progress. I started learning German from scratch about 2 years ago and studied with Nikolija for most of that time. During those two years, I progressed from A1 to C2 and recently passed the Goethe-Zertifikat C2 exam. She played a major role in helping me get there. Two things especially set her apart. First, she has her own comprehensive materials from A1 to C2, covering grammar, vocabulary, texts, and exercises. More importantly, she explains them exceptionally well and has a deep command of the language. Second, her teaching is extremely systematic. She introduces grammar and vocabulary in a carefully planned progression, so you never have to worry about what to study next, what you may have missed, or whether there are gaps in your knowledge. If you are motivated and willing to put in the work, Nikolija is THE best teacher to help you reach your goals. I cannot recommend her enough.
