I am a native German and was born in Northern Germany where I spent all my childhood years. After completing my university degree as well as my teacher training course in English and German, I moved to the UK where I have been working as a German teacher and translator. In my spare time, I love to learn languages and find out about other cultures. I am very interested in all aspects of life. Also, I really enjoy helping people reach their potential. So, teaching German is much more than a job for me and something I am passionate about. I am a fully qualified specialist German language coach with decades of experience preparing learners from all over the world for a variety of German exams – from GCSE and A-Level exams to Bachelor degrees and to accreditation exams for medical professionals. Having taught learners of all ages and abilities, and from all continents and a variety of cultures, I am aware of the challenges students face when learning the German language. As each individual is different, I adapt the teaching method and class material to each learner’s needs as much as possible. In my lessons, I employ a holistic teaching approach that focuses on communication. Therefore, all lessons are tailored to the student’s needs while covering all language aspects to build a solid foundation. This helps the student gain more confidence in using the German language in a variety of contexts and situations.

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!

I've been described as a chill, friendly and very supportive teacher by my students. I'm flexible and creative, and always try to find ways to make learning German fun and more effective for my students. After all, everyone is different in how they learn something best. As mentioned, I have taught German to elementary school kids and middle aged people. I have tutored native German speakers (in honing their writing skills) and foreigners learning German as secondary language since 2019. I'm also used to work with students who are not quite confident in German yet (A1-A2). So if you are a beginner, don't worry and let's give it a try!
