Learn German with fun - don't be afraid of mistakes and let's have a good time talking :-) Language learning should be FUN! I want to help you feel RELAXED and not nervous when speaking German. Since I have many italki teachers myself, I know how important it is, to make the student speak. YES - YOU HAVE TO SPEAK! IN GERMAN! And I promise: It's not as hard as you think! Let's neglect the difficult grammar for a while and you will be surprised how soon you will be able to comunicate! Let me give you an example: What if I said: "Have he cat?" instead of "Does he have a cat?" - It's wrong, but totally understandable! -> So if you say "Er haben Katze?" instead of "Hat er eine Katze?" everybody will be able to understand you!

From Chicago, I also lived in Barcelona and currently live in Berlin! 10+ 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!

Multicultural community tutor with 3 years of teaching experience I believe in positive encouragement rather than harsh and strict learning methods! Language is a beautiful tool to speak to different people all over the world. Therefore it should be fun. If you enjoy doing something it is most likely that you will stick to the habit of practicing it. I just experienced it myself. When I learned Japanese I had a very kind teacher and thanks to his funny and encouraging teaching I fell in love with the language. Now, a few years later, I am fluent in Japanese.

Longtime experienced German native teacher. Speaking high German and different German accents. I love teaching and helping you to learn in an effective way. I believe the best way to learn a language is to talk as much as possible with a native speaker, to train grammar and pick up more and more vocabulary. We can explore together different highlights of Germany, its culture scene, typical traditions, slang, accents and much more which makes the German language and the country so special. I have worked in management and sales, so I can prepare you for job interviews, applications and business travel too. Depending when you like to learn I am flexible to open time slots which suit you the best. Just contact me and we will find a way.

As someone who used to stutter and dislike languages (and especially the pesky grammar), getting into intense-self-studies to improve my English became my origin story. I worked as teacher for English in my hometown for 2 years afterward, after acquiring a C2 certificate from Cambridge. This encouraged me to also intensely study and re-fresh the German grammar, phonetics and teaching techniques (didactic) before starting to teach it online full-time. (it included a lot of head-shaking, and I’m a native) Through that, and my pursuit to master art I don’t believe in inherited talent, but pursued interest. Everyone can, through dedication, practice and fun, learn to speak a foreign language.

Selbstbewusst Deutsch sprechen :D I have lots of fun discussing and explaining German words, phrases and sentence structure. I have been supporting language learners on Italki since January 2019. In the past I have lived in many countries. Whenever I am back home in Germany I go back to driving an abulance. My students appreaciate my slow and clear speech. I am very patient - I dont mind repeating myself over and over again :) Repetition is essential. I encourage students to make mistakes as they catalyse the learning process.

Ich bin seit acht Jahren Deutschlehrerin. Bitte beachte, dass ich keinen Skypeunterricht anbiete! Ich bin sehr geduldig und orientiere mich stets an den Wünschen und Bedürfnissen meines Schülers. Ich möchte, dass mein Schüler keine Angst vor dem Sprechen hat oder auch das Machen von Fehlern ist erwünscht. Denn mein Ziel ist es, dass der Schüler nach jeder Deutschstunde etwas Neues lernt. Ich möchte hierbei auch verdeutlichen, dass ich Absagen, die in weniger als 24 Stunden vor dem geplanten Unterricht getätigt werden, nicht länger akzeptieren werde. Weiterhin werde ich das Geld einfordern, wenn man nicht zum Unterricht erscheint. Wenn Sie Unterricht bei mir buchen, dann erklären Sie mit diesen Bedingungen einverstanden.

German for Business and Office Communication levels B1-C1 - 13 years of teaching experience I’ve been teaching German as a foreign language since 2011. I've taught in language schools, online and in companies. I also worked as a project manager for more than 3.5 years, so I know what it’s like to work in an office and to use Business German. In our class, we will practice speaking about different topics in general and work-related content in specific. We will write professional emails, practice phone calls and improve your grammar skills and vocabulary. My teaching method involves using so-called "drills" (practice of specific language components by repeating them over and over when speaking), which will help you memorize specific grammar, vocabulary and also pronunciation.
