Native German teacher | 4+ years experience | DLL-certified (Goethe-Institut) In 2020, I started working as a science teacher at an international school, teaching children aged 8–12. After completing a 120-hour TEFL course, I also began tutoring English privately for kids. Through these experiences, I discovered how much I enjoy teaching and supporting students in their learning journey. That’s why I decided to focus on the language I feel most at home with—German. I’ve now been teaching German on italki for over four years, working with learners from all around the world. In 2024, I also successfully completed the DLL (Deutsch Lehren Lernen) course at the Goethe-Institut, which further strengthened my skills as a language teacher.

Passionate language lover and teacher of Standard and Bavarian German I am a very open and flexible teacher. I'd like to forge a connection with all my students. You can text me your preferences or what you would like to do beforehand. Whether it's an introduction to Bavarian cinema, an easy explanation of the German case system, or a deep dive into the phonology of southern German dialects. But I also love just chatting on a chill basis for little time. Whatever it is you are looking for, feel free to ask me for help.

Thailand based native speaker teaching German from beginner to advanced, including test preparation. Are you a bit nervous about booking an online class? Don't be! In my classes I try to put my students at ease, so they feel comfortable and relaxed. For me, every student is special and I prepare every lesson based on their individual needs and goals. I also pride myself on my listening skills and put a lot of work into my students’ confidence to speak. Because in my experience, if you really want to learn a new language, you have to speak it as much as possible!

Accepting new students after 01.01.2026: exam prep., grammar, writing, conversations, job interviews NOTE: I only teach adults! I have started teaching German and English in private lessons in 2014 after I have finished high school and have continued it during my master´s degree. In 2024 I have passed the professional German teacher certificate (DLL) from the Goethe Institut. I adjust learning pace, speaking speed and lesson structure towards the needs of my students. As I have learned French, English and a bit of Tagalog, I know all the challenges of learning languages. Learning German is a complex task, but it is absolutely possible to master it! I believe that you can achieve great competence in whatever you work on if you believe in yourself and invest some energy on a regular basis.

I work mainly with adults who use German in their professional life. Many of my students know their job very well, but feel unsure when work situations become difficult – for example when systems fail, processes break down, or pressure increases. My role is to help bring clarity into these situations. I focus on structured communication, realistic language, and confidence in speaking, especially when something goes wrong and clear communication matters most.

Learning is easier with a smile - !The February plan goes online end of January! I want to encourage my students to speak a lot. My lessons are a dialogue, not a monologue. Explaining something yourself makes it easier to understand. Speaking a foreign language can feel uncomfortable at first, but practice in a relaxed atmosphere makes it easier. I provide a safe space where students can try things out without embarrassment Ich möchte meine Schüler ermutigen, viel zu sprechen. Mein Unterricht ist ein Dialog, kein Monolog. Wer selbst präsentiert, versteht Prozesse leichter. Fremdsprachen zu sprechen ist anfangs oft unangenehm, doch Übung in entspannter Atmosphäre macht es leichter. Ich biete meinen Schülern einen geschützten Rahmen, in dem sie sich ausprobieren können.

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.
