The best German tutors for you

German and Polish Conversation Practice - Relaxed Lessons and Real Conversations As a teacher, my main goal is to help you feel confident when speaking. I believe that real progress starts when you stop being afraid of making mistakes. I’m patient, calm, and supportive. At the same time, I encourage you to speak as much as possible. My lessons are relaxed and natural — you can talk to me about anything. Language should not feel like a school exam. It should feel like real communication. I focus on what really helps you improve — not unnecessary theory.

I am a native German and was born in Northern Germany where I spent all my childhood years. After completing my university degree as well as my teacher training course in English and German, I moved to the UK where I have been working as a German teacher and translator. In my spare time, I love to learn languages and find out about other cultures. I am very interested in all aspects of life. Also, I really enjoy helping people reach their potential. So, teaching German is much more than a job for me and something I am passionate about. I am a fully qualified specialist German language coach with decades of experience preparing learners from all over the world for a variety of German exams – from GCSE and A-Level exams to Bachelor degrees and to accreditation exams for medical professionals. Having taught learners of all ages and abilities, and from all continents and a variety of cultures, I am aware of the challenges students face when learning the German language. As each individual is different, I adapt the teaching method and class material to each learner’s needs as much as possible. In my lessons, I employ a holistic teaching approach that focuses on communication. Therefore, all lessons are tailored to the student’s needs while covering all language aspects to build a solid foundation. This helps the student gain more confidence in using the German language in a variety of contexts and situations.

Fun Lessons, Structured Learning & Real Progress Born and raised in Germany, with a special love for Berlin, I’ve always been curious about the world and about language. My travels through Europe deepened my appreciation for cultures and languages, and eventually took me further abroad, from Australia, New Zealand and Canada. The German language is close to my heart, and I genuinely love teaching it in a way that is fun, structured, and motivating. With a Master’s degree in Political Science and training as a Project Manager, I bring clarity, structure, and real-world context into my lessons. I’m easy-going, open-minded, and fun and I always focus on your learning goals. I pay close attention to detail and have the ability to understand through context. I bring a lot of passion to working with anyone who is eager to learn. I personally love talking about food, holidays and daily routines. My teaching style is structured and goal-oriented, while staying flexible and engaging. Each lesson follows a clear plan, and we work with texts, pictures, and different topics to build language skills naturally. Grammar is introduced step by step and reinforced through practical exercises. After each lesson, you’ll receive a PDF to support your learning. I can keep lessons light or focused, general or very specific — always adapted to your goals and interests. All lessons take place via Zoom. Get in touch to discuss your needs and ideas!

Learn German with Natural Conversations & Comprehensible Input I like to teach German through interesting conversations & dialogues. So, instead of going through grammar topics & speaking a lot of English, I will try to stick to mostly speaking German with you and I encourage you to speak and use as much German as possible as well. I might speak more slowly or explain words to you, but I will stick to German and only speak English if it's absolutely necessary. :) I am also by the way very happy to practice specific situations with you (buying a ticket at the train station, having a political discussion). Just let me know what you're looking to practice.

Teaching 11 languages, currently learning 3 more, 20+ years of experience as a teacher Hello! My name is Thomas, a multilingual teacher fluent in 11 languages—with German and Slovenian as my native tongues and with a lifelong passion for studying new ones (I’m currently learning 3). With 25 years of teaching experience (20 as an independent tutor), I specialize in structured, school-style lessons tailored to your goals. Whether you’re starting from scratch or polishing fluency, I’ll help you build and improve skills systematically. When teaching I take my work seriously. A scheduled lesson becomes part of my weekly plan and I get ready for it. I conduct a detailed journal of what we have been doing, thus it is easy for me to check the content of our previous sessions. I used to teach students in physical classrooms. In 2021 I started using Skype for my lessons (today it's Teams) and things work out very well. I am always punctual as I respect the time my students take for our lessons, likewise I do appreciate if my students do the same. My lessons can be conducted in any of the following languages: German Slovenian English French Swedish Danish Norwegian Italian Spanish Dutch Esperanto I try to conduct my lessons in a way that resembles the conventional school as much as possible. Meaning a thorough explanation of the grammar with several carefully tailored examples, exercises, homework, checking the student's progress, listening and reading comprehensions and once the student's knowledge progresses sufficiently, having a conversation.
