NEW: Intense Speaking Session with written feedback&grammar support&Boni I would like my students to be able to speak to German speakers about anything from small talk to much more complex topics such as sport, literature, cinema, politics - anything you normally would talk about in your mother tongue. For those whose level is not good enough yet for a proper conversation, I'll teach you grammar and vocabulary to get you started. I have a postgraduate teaching qualification from the Goetheinstitut but more important I have been learning and teaching languages nearly all my life so I have experienced both sides. Living abroad and talk another language can be difficult but also fun once you get a better understanding how the language works.

passionate tutor with a love for teaching, traveling and sharing all the good things in life I believe learning should be fun. I´m not a professional teacher but over the years I learned a lot and had plenty of time to perfect my trade. I taught German and English for fun (sometimes, in Myanmar, for example, also for cookies...) and professionally on italki. Additionally I completed a 6 months online TEFL (teaching English as a foreign language) training. So if the fun way is the way you like to learn - contact me, I´m looking forward to meeting you!

An FBI-inspired method to help you speak sooner I was born in Germany and moved to the United States when I was twenty. I have been teaching while pursuing my acting career in New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, and Germany. I have taught adults and children from many backgrounds for more than 25 years. I teach German and English at all levels, and beginners in French and Japanese. My teaching is clear, encouraging, and structured. Students describe me as patient, positive, and easy to understand. I want you to feel safe speaking, making mistakes, and improving step by step. What makes my approach special is that I use language-learning principles inspired by how institutions such as the CIA and FBI train languages: quick recall, immediate sentence building, and active speaking from the beginning. The key is not just memorizing words, but using them instantly. We practice vocabulary through interval recall while forming real sentences, so your brain learns to retrieve the language naturally. I also use pictures for simple prompt-and-response conversations. This helps even beginners speak from the start: I show or describe something, ask guided questions, and help you answer in complete sentences. CANCELLATION POLICY I have a 24-hour cancellation policy. Please use the italki system to reschedule or cancel lessons with more than 24 hours’ notice. Please do not request rescheduling within 24 hours. If you cannot attend, let me know and schedule a new lesson online. I appreciate you and value your time.

✔ Take your German to the next Level I’ve started private teaching in 2014. I have no accent, and I teach in standard German. In the beginning I taught people from East Asia, but today my students are coming from all over the world. I'm particularly interested in languages like Japanese, Chinese and Korean. Right now I'm trying to master Japanese. Understanding how these languages are structured gives me the opportunity to teach you German in a more understandable way. In addition, I can help you, to pass the TestDaF, which is the general German language test for foreigners, who want to start studying at a German University. I've also experience in preparing students for the DSH language test and the Goethe-Zertifikat.

Zertifizierte DaF-Lehrkraft & TestDaF-Prüferin | 10+ Jahre L&D-Erfahrung Ich bin Kerstin, zertifizierte DaF-Lehrkraft mit Magister-Abschluss in Deutsch als Fremdsprache von der Universität Leipzig. Vier Jahre habe ich als DAAD-Lektorin in Shanghai gelebt und unterrichtet — ich weiß also, wie es sich anfühlt, eine Fremdsprache in einem fremden Land zu lernen. Als ausgebildete TestDaF-Prüferin kenne ich die Prüfung von innen: ich weiß genau, worauf es ankommt und wo die meisten Lernenden Punkte verlieren. Zusätzlich zu meiner Lehrerfahrung arbeite ich seit über 10 Jahren als Instructional Designer und L&D-Consultant für internationale Unternehmen. Das heißt: Ich baue dir keinen Zufalls-Unterricht, sondern einen echten Lernpfad — mit klaren Zielen, messbarem Fortschritt und Material, das zu deinem Alltag passt. Mein Unterricht ist strukturiert, zielgerichtet und immer auf dich zugeschnitten — egal ob du TestDaF bestehen, dein Berufsdeutsch verbessern oder einfach flüssiger werden möchtest. Kein Lehrbuch-Deutsch, sondern echte Fortschritte an deinem konkreten Ziel. Lass uns in einer Probestunde herausfinden, wo du stehst und wie wir dorthin kommen, wo du hin willst.

„Your patient Goethe-certified guide to speaking German like a native!" My name is Luca, a certified German teacher (DaF/DaZ) with a background in teaching and music. I've lived in Germany, the US, Italy, and Russia, so I can also help with translations in English and Italian. I am a patient, easy-going teacher — mistakes are very welcome in my class! Everyone has their own pace and learning style (auditive, visual, kinesthetic), so I tailor every lesson to the individual student. First, I get to know you — your interests, your goals — and then we design lessons together where boredom will be just an old memory. My method focuses on "Redewendungen" (chunks): these allow you to speak fluently and naturally, like a native speaker, without overthinking grammar. Grammar is important, but it's a tool — not the goal. The goal is that you can speak German. Redewendungen work on a metacognitive level, meaning you'll use them automatically, without thinking. All aspects of language learning are covered: reading, writing, listening, speaking, pronunciation, sentence melody, and intonation. You decide what kind of lesson you want — learning a language must be fun. Book a trial lesson — bis bald!
