To me it is very important to adapt myself to the student, and to taylor the lesson to their needs. Personally i love input based learning, and learning words and new grammatical structures in context, using stories dialogues, and keeping things fresh and interesting. Pour moi, c'est trĂšs important de m'adapter Ă  l'Ă©lĂšve et de personnaliser le cours en fonction de ses besoins. Personnellement, j’aime l’apprentissage basĂ© sur l’exposition Ă  la langue, et l’acquisition de nouveaux mots et structures grammaticales en contexte, en utilisant des histoires, des dialogues, en gardant les leçons dynamiques et intĂ©ressantes.

Deutsch & English (A1–C2) | Telc / DaF / GOETHE / TOEFL Test Prep / Deutsch fĂŒr Mediziner C1 FSP Since I have learned several foreign languages myself, I know how challenging it can be to start – but also how motivating it is to see progress. That’s why, as a teacher, I place great importance on making you feel comfortable while learning. Whether you are just beginning or want to take your German to a higher level, I will support you with patience, motivation, and individually tailored methods. We can focus on conversation, grammar, pronunciation, or writing – depending on your goals and needs. I think it is very important to a great connection to your teacher - I dont work with boring textbooks, rather I write my own learning material which is both fun and visually appealing.

Energetic, fun and REAL CONVERSATION classes with a motivated teacher đŸ—ŁïžđŸ‡©đŸ‡Ș I am a teacher but first and foremost I am also a forever student. Through my work as an Aupair in which I practised German with Kids aged 6 to 10 and through my language studies at University I learned that you can only teach others if you are also willing to learn and consistently drive to better your own skills. From learning many foreign languages myself I have developed my own personal hacks and tips on how to most effectively learn a new language. I accept lesson cancellations or reschedules with less than 24 hours in advance. However, this depends on my current lesson demand and schedule therefore I will decide on that for each individual case.

Certified and Experienced German Teacher and Linguist - Let's have fun learning German! Hi, I'm Hanna from Germany. I'm a Goethe-Institut-certified German teacher with a bachelor's degree in linguistics and started teaching German multiple years ago. My experience includes beginner and advanced levels, ranging from grammar and conversation practice to exam preparation. My lessons are a mix of learning and practicing. I will teach you new grammar and vocabulary, and we will practice them through talking and solving exercises. During the lesson, I will write down grammar explanations, vocabulary, and exercises and share them with you after the lesson. Like this, you can focus on practicing without having to worry about taking notes. For me, the most important thing is to fit the lessons to your learning style and goals. It makes a big difference if you want to practice speaking or prepare for a specific exam. Let's talk about your experience and goals in the first lesson and find the style that suits you the best! In my lessons, I try to speak as much German as possible, but I can also give explanations in English, Spanish, and Japanese. Let me know what you prefer! I enjoy learning languages and teaching German a lot and hope that I can share some of that joy with you! Let's study together 🙂

I try to understand YOU and your individual learning style. I do not take on too many students so that I can fully focus on the needs of a smaller number. Quality goes over Quantity. I expect my students to be open to my methods and to be honest with me if they feel something is not to their liking. As a teacher I make sure that my students feel respected and comfortable. There is no space for ANY kind of discrimination in my classes and I will never ever give you the feeling you are being judged.

My goal as a teacher is that you get the most out of the class. How do I want to achieve that? 1) Create a comfortable atmosphere: You have to be relaxed and feel comfortable in order to learn. I will try to create a very comfortable atmosphere so you can concentrate on the lesson. 2) Teaching a fun class: The class should be fun and interesting, that’s when we get the best results. I would love to know about topics that interest you and consider them in my preparation of the class. 3) Speak as much German as possible: You have to get used to the structure, the sound and the rhythm of the language. That's why I want to encourage you that we speak as much German as possible during the class.

Polyglot teacher with over 10 years experience of teaching languages As a polyglot, I would like to help you develop methods to leverage the knowledge of all of your languages and dialects in learning German. Of course it is perfectly fine, if you are monolingual. Professionally, in language teaching, I own a certificate for language teaching to adults specializing among other things in teaching writing systems. Here, as a teacher, I intend to develop materials and routines which will help you most achieve your goals in learning German. We will identify those linguistic structures in German together, which are most alien to you given your possibly multilingual background. It is those structures which are usually hardest to learn.
