The best German tutors for you

Bei mir wird gesprochen. Ich rege Gespräche an, indem ich meine Schüler viele Fragen stellen, um zu herauszufinden, wofür sie sich interessieren, was ihre Stärke und Schwäche sind, wie sie am liebsten mit lernen, usw. Von Typ her bin ich äußerst neugierig und höre meinen Schülern sehr genau und mit viel Geduld zu. Wenn man das eigene Lebensgeschichte erzählen kann, kann man auch wohl sehr gut Deutsch reden, weshalb ich ermutige meine Schüler soviel wie möglich von sich selbst zu sagen, wahr oder gelogen.

New language, new life ... I can help you to start your new life 🇩🇪💪😉 You live a new life for every language you speak. Tienes tantas vidas como idiomas hablas. ENGLISH Hi, I’m Marcus, a native German teacher from Germany, living in Tenerife since 2010. I love sports, music, traveling, and meeting people, but my true passion is languages. If you’re tired of grammar rules and boring textbooks, you’re in the right place. I used to feel the same, until I went abroad and discovered how languages come alive through communication. My approach is practical and focused on real communication. I teach spoken grammar using colors, stories, music, and everyday situations, so you don’t just understand the language, you actually use it. I teach all levels (A1–C2) with a flexible approach adapted to your needs. I’m patient and help you feel confident speaking. ESPAÑOL Hola, soy Marcus, profesor nativo de alemán, nacido en Alemania y viviendo en Tenerife desde 2010. Me encantan el deporte, la música, viajar y conocer gente, pero mi gran pasión son los idiomas. Si estás cansado de la gramática y los libros aburridos, estás en el lugar correcto. Yo también lo sentía así hasta que viví en el extranjero y descubrí que los idiomas se aprenden comunicando. Mi enfoque es práctico y centrado en la comunicación real. Enseño gramática hablada con colores, historias, música y situaciones cotidianas, para que no solo entiendas el idioma, sino que lo uses. Enseño todos los niveles (A1–C2) con un enfoque flexible. Soy paciente y te ayudaré a hablar con seguridad.

Goethe-Institut Certified | Effective & Professional German Lessons I have over 10 years of experience as a language teacher, specializing in one-on-one private instruction. As a self-employed educator, I have worked with students from diverse backgrounds, tailoring each lesson to their unique needs and goals. This personalized approach allows me to focus on the specific challenges and strengths of each learner, whether they are beginners building a foundation, intermediate students seeking to enhance their skills, or advanced learners refining their fluency. My extensive experience has given me a deep understanding of effective teaching strategies and the ability to create engaging, customized learning plans that ensure my students' success.

Professional Language Teacher (GER) | 5+ Years Experience |Taught over 1000+ students Da ich selbst aktiv Japanisch lerne, kenne ich sowohl die Herausforderungen als auch die Freude daran, eine neue Sprache zu meistern. Diese Erfahrung hat meinen Unterrichtsstil geprägt - ich kann mich dadurch besser in deine Lernreise hineinversetzen und dir wirksame Lehrmethoden mit auf den Weg geben, die dir wirklich helfen. Since I'm actively learning Japanese myself, I understand both the challenges and the joy of mastering a new language. This experience has shaped my teaching style - it allows me to better empathize with your learning journey and provide you with effective teaching methods that truly help you progress.

Approachable, curious, genuine ... somewhat silly. 😌 Hey you! ✌️😄 I have over five years of teaching experience and 800+ lessons completed, and my students keep coming back. They often say it’s because I focus less on being overly “teacherly” and more on being human—real conversations and genuine connection. I live in Finland, run a small business, and study Psychology at the master’s level online. Outside the classroom, I lift weights, wrestle, read, write, and treat good food very seriously. Life has tested me more than once, which has made me approachable, grounded, and a genuinely good listener. My lessons aren’t heavy or intense, though—rather thoughtful, supportive, and full of humour (and the occasional glitch in the matrix 😄). I do not offer grammar lessons, and I work exclusively with fluent speakers. My lessons are laid back. I am good at listening, helping you find the right words, and I'll correct you if necessary. I will also type the words down in the chat if you find it useful. Session recordings are welcome.

✹PROFESSIONAL NATIVE GERMAN TEACHER WITH PASSION✹ I started teaching German to international students in 2009 as a private tutor during my university studies. During that time I realized that this is my true passion, because I love to work with people and seeing progress in my students makes me feel proud and truly happy. After graduation I took several courses to become a professional teacher and soon got a job at a reputable high school in Taiwan. Besides teaches classes, I still tutor private students and currently I am on a temporary leave to travel the world, while still tutoring online and funding my dream through italki.

FSP-Vorbereitung mit systemnaher Kommunikation I was born and raised in Germany. During my university studies, I took an elective called 'Integrationsmentoring', which inspired me to teach on italki. For my exam, I had to present a solution to integrate foreign specialists. My approach was to create medical German classes for doctors (FSP). Von Beruf bin ich studierte Medizinische Dokumentarin (Studienschwerpunkt: Medizin, Statistik und Informatik) sowie Wirtschaftsinformatikerin. Ich arbeite in der medizinischen Forschung an einem Universitätsklinikum. Es freut mich sehr, wenn meine Schüler ihre Prüfung mit Lob bestehen - besonders in Städten mit hoher Durchfallquote. Was mich von anderen FSP-Lehrern unterscheidet: - Ich programmiere die Eingabemasken für die Dokumentation im Krankenhaus, z.B. für verschiedene Arten von Anamnesen, und weiß, wie detailliert gefragt werden muss. - Ich lese routinemäßig viele Arztbriefe und erkenne bei Schülern, wenn Pflichtinformationen fehlen. - Mein Studium vermittelte medizinische Fachsprache gezielt auf ärztlichem Niveau. - Keine FSP-Bücher - laut Schülern oft zu oberflächlich für die Prüfung. - Mein Unterricht basiert auf echter Klinikpraxis.

Not sure where to start or how to feel more confident speaking German? Good. That's where we begin. Hi, I'm Heike. I’ve been teaching German online since 2016, and what I enjoy most is that moment when something suddenly clicks and learners realise: “I can actually do this.” I work with all levels, but I have a soft spot for beginners. I hold a Magistra Artium in Ethnology, Archaeology & Sociology, and yes, I worked as an archaeologist in Peru. That background shapes how I teach: language is not just grammar, but culture, history and people. In my lessons, you speak from day one. We work with real-life situations and build your confidence step by step. A shared Google Doc keeps everything in one place. For grammar, I use Deutschfuchs. Homework is optional, but it really helps. Hola, soy Heike. Enseño alemán online desde 2016, y lo que más me gusta es ese momento en que algo encaja y el estudiante piensa: “sí puedo hacerlo”. Trabajo con todos los niveles, pero tengo especial cariño por principiantes. ¿No sabes por dónde empezar? Por ahí empezamos. Tengo una Magistra Artium en Etnología, Arqueología y Sociología, y sí, trabajé como arqueóloga en Perú. Esa experiencia define mi enfoque: el idioma no es solo gramática, sino cultura, historia y personas. En mis clases hablas desde el primer día. Trabajamos con situaciones reales y construimos tu confianza paso a paso. Un Google Doc compartido lo guarda todo. Para la gramática uso Deutschfuchs. Explico con claridad, hago las preguntas adecuadas y doy feedback honesto. Los deberes son opcionales, pero ayudan de verdad.

Learn German at your own pace and in a relaxed atmosphere I can easily relate to what it feels like to learn a new language. During my semester abroad in Portugal, I found it particularly challenging to speak with locals. In my lessons, you can learn German at your own pace and in a relaxed atmosphere. By using tools such as pictures and texts, I aim to make the language easier for you and help you build the confidence to use it independently in the future.

I teach German in an easy and fun way. I ONLY teach conversations, and I am happy to provide helpful examples for unfamiliar vocabulary. Thanks to this, the lessons will not become boring and the student's interest will not be lost. In this way you can consolidate and expand your knowledge so that you can understand German books yourself or watch famous German videos.

I've been described as a chill, friendly and very supportive teacher by my students. I'm flexible and creative, and always try to find ways to make learning German fun and more effective for my students. After all, everyone is different in how they learn something best. As mentioned, I have taught German to elementary school kids and middle aged people. I have tutored native German speakers (in honing their writing skills) and foreigners learning German as secondary language since 2019. I'm also used to work with students who are not quite confident in German yet (A1-A2). So if you are a beginner, don't worry and let's give it a try!

My teaching style is very open minded and flexible. During the intro I find out what the students require and how committed they are to their goals. I adapt my style to theirs: with some students I will be more laid back and with the more ambitious and focused ones (my favorites) I will more actively plan ahead. Both will get links to their hobbies/profession/studies. i am known to be "living with my students" and rejoice at their success in reaching their goals be this moving to a German speaking country, taking the immigration to simply learning the language of Goethe and Theodor Fontane.
