Lotti Ebertz

Lotti is a really great teacher, and I enjoy my lessons with her very much. She is patient, funny, and easygoing, and speaks German slowly enough for me as a beginner to understand. I can recommend her to everyone who wants to improve German skills in a friendly and relaxed environment.

I was honestly really nervous about signing up for iTalki -- I was worried about being put continuously on the spot. But, working with Lotti has been wonderful! She never makes me feel dumb or like I should know better. (I had some bad high school language class experiences, which is why I developed this anxiety.) I especially liked when we reviewed grammar because I really need these reminders. Thank you for being such an excellent tutor, Lotti! I'll be back. :)

Lotti sprach klar und ermutigte mich zu sprechen.

If you're new to German, then I cannot recommend Lotti more highly! Almost a year ago I learned I would be going to Germany for a month. I arrived to my first lesson speaking barely more than "ein bisschen" (a bit) or "ich verstehe nicht" (I don't understand). I remember Lotti as patient and reassuring in that lesson and in every lesson that followed. I have found my German lessons to be fun, I have told and heard funny stories in German, and I have learned many things about the German language and Germany from Lotti. I am no longer nervous about having conversations in German! I'm looking forward to my trip because Lotti really helped improve my German.

Great introductory lesson with Lotti. Structured and pleasant. Look forward to continuing with her.

Super clear and helpful tuition. I previously learned German in school and speak other Germanic languages, Lotti speaks a lot of German in our lessons, in a clear and understandable way which helps me remember/re-learn in a fun and efficient way. We are currently working through the Menschen books which gives a clear learning plan. Highly recommended.
