Ich unterrichte seit dem Jahr 2005 und durfte ganz viele Erfahrungen sammeln in der Unterstufe, in der Mittelstufe, in der Oberstufe, in Kleinklassen in einer Kinder- und Jugendpsychiatrie u.s.w. Die letzten fünf Jahre habe ich in einer Primarschule im Raum Zürich unterrichtet, dort war ich als DaZ (Deutsch als Zweitsprache)-Lehrperson tätig, wo ich auch noch die DaZ-Ausbildung absolviert habe. Das Unterrichten macht mir sehr viel Spass, ich bin sehr motiviert und zielstrebig.

I want to help you feel more at ease when you speak German. As a journalist I am used to talking with people I´ve never met before, and being a passionate language learner myself, I know what it´s like to struggle to speak a foreign language. I know that mistakes are not a bad thing, but part of the learning process.

Speaking German fearlessly. 🦁 Authentically. 😁 Like a native speaker. 🇩🇪 Do you also want to improve your German, understand the people around you (your German colleagues, neighbours, friends and others), and lose your fear to speak? 😁 I am a really friendly and encouraging teacher. If you are willing to learn and to give your best, I will help you to get the best out of yourself! 🏆 I’m serious about what I do. I always want to give high quality. If you have questions, I love to help you to find the best way to answer them. I want to see you grow 🪴 and become more confident in what you do. So learning German is not just a school lesson. It is about being valued in who you are and what you are already able to do - and growing where you want to develop yourself.

Focus on conversation, pronunciation, develop your vocabulary&grammar with GOETHE certified teacher Matching your needs and goals as a student defines my understanding of good teaching. Originally I am from the tourism industry (including working as a flight attendant) and I also have a background as personal assistant and secretary. Passionate for communication I qualified to teach German as a foreign language. I do speak several foreign languages myself and thus I also attended a lot of classes, sessions, auto trainings, online trainings and all sorts of possible and sometimes impossible ways of learning a foreign language myself. You may profit from my experiences during my classes. I am creative, understanding, emphatic and managed to aquire very good intercultural skills.

I believe the passion that I have towards teaching and tutoring has driven me more and more to become a mentor, communicator, and language coach.

From Chicago, I also lived in Barcelona, and currently live in Berlin! 8+ years teaching experience! I am a very positive person who has had his life changed through foreign languages. I have learned so much about foreign languages and the language learning process through my Spanish degree in university and in learning German on my own outside of the classroom. Learning a new language truly opens up entirely new worlds of travel, cultural understanding, music, movies, television, and opportunities to connect with new people. I am going to motivate you in your language learning process and encourage you to integrate the foreign language and culture into your life as much as possible!

Pavy
I'm a qualified German teacher from Zürich, Switzerland. I have been teaching on italki since 2020 and have worked with students from all over the world. My students have a variety of goals – from improving conversational fluency and integrating into life in Zürich to preparing for exams. As a Züri City native, I offer lessons in both Standard German (Hochdeutsch) and Swiss German (Züritüütsch), the local Zürich dialect. Depending on your goals, we can focus on Hochdeutsch or dive into authentic Züritüütsch so you can speak like a local. I adapt to all levels and learning styles and I know how important it is to practice actively in a supportive and friendly space.

Übung macht den Meister / Повторенье - мать ученья 😊 I am a professional full-time German teacher, who has already gained a lot of teaching experience. I am very patient and accurate, I can explain well, and I love to challenge people. I support grammar especially on the levels A1, A2 and B1 with pictures. I usually give explanations in German, but I want to make sure that you understand me, which is why you can speak with me in Italian, English or Russian. IMPORTANT INFORMATION: - I work only with adults (18+). - Please first book a trial lesson or a single lesson, before you book a package. - Please follow Italki's rescheduling/cancellation terms. Both should be done at least 24 hours in advance, otherwise your class will be charged 100%.
