Hi! I’m a certified TEFL/Goethe teacher specialising in **conversational German and English** for all levels. From southern California to Germany to Scotland, my multicultural journey helps me connect with students adapting to new languages and cultures. Whether you’re prepping for exams, relocating, or just love learning, I blend **real-world practice** with friendly, tailored lessons. Fun facts: I’ve biked across the US, write short and long fiction, and have 6 cats 🐱. I have a Diploma in Montessori Education, a Bachelors degree in the Creative Arts and a Masters degree in Publishing Studies. Let’s make language learning an adventure—click my profile to explore lessons.Moi en tant que professeur
With thousands of classes under my belt, I’m trying something new. Rather than categorising classes by learner level, I’m switching to a learner and teacher engagement model. This lets you decide how invested you would like me to be in your success in and out of class. All classes begin with us getting to know each other, discussing the student's language aims and goals in general. I am approachable, flexible and easy going. My students feel at ease learning with me whether it is to improve their conversation or whether they aspire to pass exams and relocate. I offer consistent support and kind correction aiming always for continuous language improvement. Mes leçons et ma méthode d'enseignement
My teaching style is informal and conversational. I teach 3 class types in both English and German for children and adults. I integrate pronunciation and functional grammar into every lesson without it becoming pedantic. Focussing on a student’s interests fuels creative material choices and lesson execution. We get to know each other and try out different learning and class styles. We all learn differently. Kind correction in a friendly, supportive atmosphere is important to me. We might use books, films, series, articles, podcasts or music as a springboard for conversation and a basis for enhancing language skills, cultural appreciation, comprehension and general improvement through Q&A.Mes ressources d'enseignement

Every class with Mortica has been better then the last. She understands how I learn and some of my challenges and fosters that part of my learning process. I look forward to each class

Morticia is a very engaging and supportive German teacher. Thanks to her approach, I started speaking German almost immediately with her help. And her comments and suggestions help me to enlarge my vocabulary very fast.

Mit Morticia zu sprechen ist ein Vergnügen. Sie hat vielfältige Interessen und unterhält sich mit Begeisterung. Außerdem schafft sie es, Korrekturen auf unaufdringliche Weise einzubringen und in das Gespräch einzuflechten.

Morticia begann mit einigen einfachen Grundregeln und hielt den Unterricht auf Deutsch. Sie gab klare Erklärungen und ich fühlte mich sehr entspannt und sicher. Wir übten das Sprechen und die Korrekturen waren hilfreich, ohne einen Druck auszuüben. Gemeinsam legten wir geeignete Hausaufgaben für die nächste Stunde fest. Die erste Stunde hat mir sehr gut gefallen!
