Ich unterrichte seit dem Jahr 2005 und durfte ganz viele Erfahrungen sammeln in der Unterstufe, in der Mittelstufe, in der Oberstufe, in Kleinklassen in einer Kinder- und Jugendpsychiatrie u.s.w. Die letzten fünf Jahre habe ich in einer Primarschule im Raum Zürich unterrichtet, dort war ich als DaZ (Deutsch als Zweitsprache)-Lehrperson tätig, wo ich auch noch die DaZ-Ausbildung absolviert habe. Das Unterrichten macht mir sehr viel Spass, ich bin sehr motiviert und zielstrebig.

I started giving private spanish lessons and then I became curious about my own mothertongue. Since then I am particularly passionate about the German language and that´s what I hope to pass on to you. My classes are communicative, interactive and motivating. In my opinion the most important skill is to speak a language. Empecé a dar clases particulares de español y luego sentí curiosidad por mi propia lengua materna. Desde entonces me apasiona especialmente el idioma alemán y eso es lo que espero transmitirte. Mis clases son comunicativas, interactivas y motivadoras. En mi opinión la habilidad más importante es hablar un idioma.

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.

Als Community Tutor habe ich schon 3 Jahre Erfahrung. Außerdem bin ich zertifizierte psychologische Beraterin und bin deshalb sehr einfühlsam und kann im Rahmen des Unterrichts bei Lernschwierigkeiten auf Grund von Blockaden helfen und unterstützen. Aus eigener Erfahrung weiß ich, wie schwierig es sein kann, in der Fremdsprache zu sprechen, weil wir vielleicht Angst haben, Fehler zu machen. Aber es ist so großartig, dass wir eine neue Sprache lernen - dafür müssen wir uns nicht schämen.

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.

Qualified teacher of Polish, German, and Spanish with six years of professional experience I’ve wanted to become a teacher in formal education since I was 13 years old. I’ve specialized in four countries and gained experience with various teaching methods and educational systems in Poland, Germany, Chile, and Argentina. For me, being a teacher means taking on great responsibility — and at the same time, having a lot of fun. I'm always well-prepared, I offer a variety of exercises, and I love sharing fun facts. I encourage my students to speak a lot during the lessons, so they feel more comfortable with the language every week. I highly recommend my lessons to anyone who wants to learn in a dynamic and engaging way.
