🇩🇪 Passionate German lessons in 🇩🇪, 🇺🇸, 🇪🇸, 🇷🇺, 🇺🇦 or 🇫🇷 ❗️Unfortunately, I do not currently teach children ❗️ Languages are exciting! As a teacher, I love guiding my students to understand and use language structures in their daily lives. I give private lessons, prepare exams, teach online and face-to-face courses, and develop projects for language learning through online media. Languages are a big part of my life and it is a great pleasure for me to share my knowledge and learning mindset!

FSP-Vorbereitung mit systemnaher Kommunikation Ich arbeite in der medizinischen Forschung an einem Universitätsklinikum und begleite internationale Ärzte bei der Vorbereitung auf die Fachsprachprüfung (FSP). Mein Interesse an diesem Bereich entstand bereits während meines Studiums im Wahlfach „Integrationsmentoring“, das sich mit der Integration internationaler Fachkräfte beschäftigte. Viele meiner Teilnehmer haben die Fachsprachprüfung in verschiedenen Bundesländern sowie in Österreich erfolgreich bestanden. Einen Teil dieser Prüfungserfolge findest du in meinen Bewertungen. Ich bin studierte Medizinische Dokumentarin (Studienschwerpunkt: Medizin, Statistik und Informatik) sowie Wirtschaftsinformatikerin. • Ich programmiere die Eingabemasken für die Dokumentation im Krankenhaus, zum Beispiel für verschiedene Arten von Anamnesen, und weiß, wie detailliert gefragt werden muss. • Ich lese routinemäßig viele Arztbriefe und überprüfe bei meinen Teilnehmern unter anderem, ob relevante Informationen und Pflichtangaben dokumentiert sind. • Mein Unterricht orientiert sich an den Kommunikations- und Dokumentationsanforderungen des Klinikalltags.

Language learner and patient tutor I am very patient and understand the struggles of learning a new language as I have spent a couple years on italki as a student myself and continue taking lessons regularly. As a tutor I try to do the things that I have found most useful as a learner. We can speak about what interests you, read texts together or watch videos online and then talk about those. I do want to help you with whatever you need, so we will start by speaking about your goals and expectations regarding the lessons. I do not believe in studying grammar charts or vocabulary lists, but I do believe in improving those areas by gaining a natural understanding of how a language works through listening, reading an speaking.

Certified Teacher + Language Coach helping you make learning effective and sustainable for life✨️ I'm glad you're here! I have 6 years of teaching experience, and am largely self taught in 10 languages w/ a degree in German + 150-hour TEFL certification. I understand linguistic challenges and psychological struggles that hold us back (perfectionism, self criticism, guilt, heritage languages, etc.). My goal is to help you reach your goals by making your learning effective, sustainable, and enjoyable for life. I structure students' lessons according to learning style and goals, focusing on the whole person they are behind their studies. Therefore, building long term student relationships is very important to my work. I find different ways to explain a concept and understand how to energize my lessons through new material and adapt to your preferred learning style, staying patient, determined and flexible to only offer the best in helping students from A0 to C1. I will avoid using English as much as possible and urge my students to do the same, unless otherwise noted. I will adapt our conversations to what you enjoy talking about and/or specific grammar points. I give homework when requested, usually PDFs, slides, or other resources for grammar, writing, listening, and/or reading (if you want to focus on one in particular, let me know!). **When you contact me for a lesson, please include what you believe your level to be, how long you have been learning, your language background, and what type of learner you are.

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.

Certified language teacher | Polyglot | 5+ years of experience Hi, I'm Ioana! :) I studied European Language and Art Education (Europalehramt) in Germany and have been teaching French and Art for years, combining structure with creativity in everything I do. What makes my lessons different? I believe languages need to be lived, not just learned. That's why I design lessons around music, images, stories, and real conversations. So grammar sinks in naturally, almost without you noticing. When a rule needs explaining, I explain it clearly and directly. It all depends on YOU. I'm multilingual myself: Romanian, Italian, German, French, English and Spanish — and currently learning Arabic and Portuguese. I know firsthand what it means to navigate a new language, to feel lost, to suddenly understand. That experience shapes how I teach: with empathy, patience, and genuine curiosity about where you want to go. My approach is flexible and student-centered. Before we start, I want to know your goals, your interests, your learning style. Because no two learners are the same, and no two lessons should be either. Whether you're a complete beginner or working toward fluency, whether you learn best through conversation, creative tasks, or structured grammar work: I'll adapt to you. Let's make it enjoyable. Let's make it stick. À bientôt! :)

Young Polyglot tutoring natural, colloquial and everyday speech Hi there, I’m Garshasb, Garsh for short! I’m a native speaker of English, German, and Persian, and I also speak Japanese at a decent level after having lived in Japan for a year. I have experience teaching German and English to university students, most notably teaching at Osaka University, which is one of the best Universities in Japan. I have also been teaching English to kindergarten and lower school students in Japan. In my free time, I enjoy reading, climbing, spending time with friends, and playing football. I believe that languages are best learned through natural communication rather than simply memorizing rules from textbooks. In my experience, true fluency develops by actively engaging with people in the language and gradually acquiring it in a natural way, much like children do. If this approach sounds like a good fit for you, I’d be happy to work with you!

Teaching 11 languages , currently learning 3 more, 20+ years of experience as a teacher Hello! My name is Thomas, an experienced user and teacher of 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.
