Do you want to express yourself better in conversation and sound more authentic in German? I specialize in helping you to improve your speaking and pronunciation of German based on special exercises I design specifically for YOUR native language background (i.e. German for Chinese speakers, German for Spanish speakers, etc). My particular area of expertise is in phonetics and phonology, so I can help you to master the difficult sounds of German so that you feel more confident when you are speaking. However, I can help you with any aspect of your German that you would like to improve, including preparing you to take formal examinations like the DSH, the TestDaF and the Goethe Institut exams.

Más de 17 años de experiencia I never thought that teaching could be the right job for me, but - here I am - seventeen years and around a thousand of students later. At some point, I realised that teaching had become a passion. My professional experience before italki was focused mainly on exam preparation both in English (e.g. Cambridge, Trinity) and German (Goethe Institut, telc) and included - apart from the usual group and individual, intensive and regular courses - level-testing and organising mock exams. For several years, I also worked as an English examiner and corrector at one of the universities in Spain. I hold a C2 Certificate in Spanish (DELE).

I tutored many students for years at my old school in the german language and now I am teaching german as a volunteer at french schools. That’s why I also have a lot of experience tutoring people with different mother tongues. Ich habe Jahrelang verschiedensten Schüler*innen an meiner alten Schule Deutschnachhilfe gegeben und bringe nun Kindern an französischen Schulen Deutsch bei, als Freiwilligendienst. Von den Menschen die ich bereits unterrichtet habe, hatten viele unterschiedliche Muttersprachen.

Thomas - teaching 11 languages, currently learning 3 more When teaching I take both my schedule and my classes seriously. When a class is scheduled, it is part of my weekly plan and I get ready for it. I conduct a detailed journal of what I have been doing with my student, I write down every session, thus it is easy for me to check what we did on our past sessions. I used to teach more conventionally, meaning with my students being in the same room as me. In 2021 I started using Skype for my classes and things work out very well. I am always punctual as I respect the time my students take for our class, likewise I do appreciate if my students do the same.

Als Lehrkraft habe ich an verschiedenen Stellen wertvolle Erfahrungen gesammelt: ich habe ein Praktikum an der Deutschen Schule in Oslo absolviert, habe in Deutschland mit jungen Menschen gearbeitet, die Deutsch als Fremdsprache lernten und als Privattutorin Englisch in Kambodscha unterrichtet. Als Lehrkraft möchte ich stets die Perspektive der Lernenden einbeziehen, da ich selbst weiß wie wichtig es ist, einen geduldigen Lehrer zu haben, der gut zuhören kann und sich der Lerngeschwindigkeit anpasst.

In 2001 I began to teach German as a Foreign Language at the German Cultural Center which is the official representative of the Goethe Institute in the City of Monterrey- Mexico. In 2012 I taught German at the University Regiomontana. It was very satisfactory to prepare students to obtain the Scholarships offered by the DAAD (Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst) to study and to do their Internship in German companies

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.

Certified CELTA instructor with more than 20 years experience teaching in-person and online. If I have one regret in life, it is that I didn't start teaching earlier. It is a second career for me and I enjoy it very much. One of the best things is hearing and seeing people of all ages begin to gain confidence using one of the languages I love and enjoy teaching.

Speak German with confidence – Patient guidance every step of the way! My passion for teaching German started in university and grew as I traveled. I loved helping exchange students from Japan and the U.S. with their German studies, and that sparked my love for teaching. Living in Taiwan, I had the chance to teach both German and English to students of all ages, including teachers! Each experience has shaped my teaching style and made me even more excited to share my knowledge with you.

Barbara
German native speaker (Standard German) with a passion for teaching and learning languages. For several years now, I have had numerous video calls with people from many countries of all continents including a lot of English, French and Spanish native speakers, practising my own foreign languages and helping them to improve their German. So if you speak any of the languages mentioned above, I can assure you that I am very well aware of the typical challenges you encounter with regards to German grammar and pronunciation. I prefer an informal and relaxed teaching style. Besides my passion for languages, I enjoy reading, running, travelling, photography, psychology, philosophy, learning about different lifestyles and cultures, and many more.
