Hi! I’m Gerald, a Goethe-certified German teacher from Austria with a passion for languages and real conversation. I’ve lived in both Austria and Germany (Berlin), so I can help you navigate the differences between “Austrian German” and “German German” — both in language and culture.
A few years ago, I moved to Peru, where I now teach German full-time here on italki.
Beyond teaching, I’m into health, travel, cooking, current affairs, economics, sports and nature — and I love bringing those topics into our lessons. I'm easy to talk to, and I’ll only interrupt you when it really helps you learn. 🙂Che tipo di insegnante sono
I'm a certified German teacher (Goethe-Institut) with years of experience helping students of all levels and backgrounds.
One of the biggest blocks I see in learners is the pressure to speak perfectly. That mindset holds you back. My job is to help you feel safe, supported, and encouraged to speak freely — fluent, not flawless ;-)
I offer different lesson types:
- Fully structured courses (great if you’re starting from zero)
- Conversation-focused sessions (with or without materials)
- A mix of both — customized to your goals
No matter where you're starting from, we'll build lessons that fit you personally. Le mie lezioni e il mio metodo di insegnamento
My teaching style is clear, supportive, and tailored to your needs. I love 1:1 lessons because they let us focus on what works best for you — no compromises.
We’ll use a course book if you want structure, or dive into real conversations if you're here to build fluency and confidence. You’ll always get:
Helpful corrections and tips
A shared Google Doc where I track vocab, grammar, and feedback
Encouragement to speak freely and enjoy the learning process
Whether you're starting from scratch, brushing up after a long break, or adding practice alongside a full-time course — I’ll help you move forward with confidence.Il mio materiale didattico

La scelta dell'insegnante
I had no prior knowledge of German before starting lessons with Gerald. Our lessons are very effective and he often customizes it to what I want to learn. When I am having difficultly with grammar lessons or remembering a word, Gerald always reassures me and is very patient. I have learned so much about the language and culture in such a short period of time. If there are any American beginners I cannot recommend Gerald enough, this has been such a rewarding process thus far!

I strongly recommend Gerald as a teacher for learning German. I found Gerald after experimenting with 3 professional teachers and group classes. With Gerald I learned from 0 knowledge in German to B1-B2, passing B1 Goethe at ~90% spontaneously and with ease. The classes are always engaging. I articulate complex ideas without being afraid of making mistakes. I am gently corrected when needed. We do both conversations about the topics that concern us and course book exercises. I am writing this in English for those who are looking for a German teacher to start learning 😊

I have been learning German with Gerald for more than a year and couldn't be more satisfied. During this time he has helped me face my fear of speaking German by gently assisting me while I speak during our always enjoyable discussions. Gerald is very supportive and kind and there is always the right balance to fit personal needs at the moment, with some days being more focused on speaking than others. It has overall been a very enjoyable experience with a lot of progress and I can only recommend learning German with Gerald.
