Ich bin deutscher Muttersprachler und studiere Bauingenieurwesen an der Frankfurt University of Applied Sciences. Seit mehreren Monaten unterrichte ich Deutsch als Fremdsprache und begleite Lernende aus verschiedenen Ländern auf ihrem Weg zu besseren Deutschkenntnissen. Mein Unterricht ist strukturiert, geduldig und praxisorientiert. Ich passe jede Unterrichtsstunde individuell an deine Ziele und dein Sprachniveau an. Gemeinsam verbessern wir deine Grammatik, Aussprache, deinen Wortschatz und vor allem deine Sprechfähigkeit, damit du Deutsch sicher im Alltag, im Beruf oder im Studium anwenden kannst. Ich arbeite mit modernen Lehrmaterialien und einer klaren Schritt-für-Schritt-Methode von Birkenbihl. Ob Anfänger oder Fortgeschrittener – ich unterstütze dich dabei, deine Sprachziele effizient zu erreichen. Gerne helfe ich auch bei der Vorbereitung auf Prüfungen wie Goethe, telc oder TestDaF. Ich freue mich darauf, dich kennenzulernen und dich auf deinem Weg zum fließenden Deutsch zu begleiten. Hinweis: Ich unterrichte ausschließlich Männer und Jungen. Vielen Dank für Ihr Verständnis.

calm, patient & friendly German speaking practice with a native speaker 🌸🇩🇪 Hi there, I’m Hannah! Do you already know some German but feel worried when speaking? Do the words just not seem to flow the way you want them to? Do you want to learn German as it is really spoken in everyday life and become more confident expressing yourself? Then you are in the right place — or as we say in German: “Dann bist du hier an der richtigen Adresse!” 😊 I’m a native German speaker, fluent in English, and I’m currently learning Japanese myself. So I know what it feels like to search for the right words, make mistakes, and slowly build confidence. My goal is to help you reach a point where speaking German feels easier and more natural. Together, we can practice spontaneous conversations, everyday expressions, and the kind of German you actually use in real life. From my previous teaching experience, students often told me that they felt comfortable and relaxed during lessons. I’m patient, encouraging, and I enjoy creating a positive learning environment where you don’t have to be afraid of making mistakes. In our lessons, we can: • Practice real conversations about topics you enjoy • Learn useful vocabulary and natural expressions • Improve pronunciation • Read and discuss texts, articles, or books • Review grammar when it helps you communicate better Whether you want to gain confidence, prepare for life in a German-speaking country, or simply enjoy speaking German more, I’d love to help you on your path. Ich freue mich darauf, dich kennenzulernen! 😊

Grüezi! | Swiss German & German Tutor | Speak Naturally & Understand Real Swiss German Hello, I’m Thomas from Switzerland 🇨🇭, currently living in Tokyo 🇯🇵. I help learners understand and speak real Swiss German in everyday situations — and feel more confident and comfortable in conversation. I’m a professional Swiss German & German tutor with 5+ years of experience on italki. 👉 My lessons are for students who already speak German (A2+) and want to improve their speaking, listening, and communication skills. (I do not teach complete beginners.) Many learners understand High German but struggle with Swiss German in real life. I know how challenging that can be, and I’ll guide you step by step through it. My main focus is Swiss German, but I also teach High German (Standard German) and help you move naturally between both. My method is simple: we speak a lot. Through relaxed, natural conversations, you improve step by step and build real confidence. During lessons, I support you with: • clear corrections and helpful feedback • vocabulary & natural expressions • grammar explanations when needed I create my own Swiss German learning materials, designed specifically for learners, and run the YouTube channel “Swiss German Storytime”. I also share additional practice and learning resources on Patreon. My goal is to help you feel confident speaking and understanding Swiss German in everyday situations. Feel free to book a lesson — I’d be happy to work with you. Thomas

I also pay attention to details such as absolutely correct grammar and orthography. That doesn't mean, however, that my lessons are dry. I'm always ready for a joke to make a lesson fun. My students also appreciate my famous drawings that explain a language problem in a fun and easy-to-remember way. That's why my students call me Markus Picasso.

Österreichische Muttersprachlerin mit Leidenschaft für Menschen & kulturellen Austausch Hallo! Ich heiße Sara, und komme aus dem wunderschönen Österreich. Österreich hat eine sehr schöne Landschaft, ich liebe die Berge und die Seen und mag es auch dort Sport zu machen, wie z.B. wandern, klettern oder bouldern, und bei Gelegenheit gehe ich auch gerne Scuba Diving. Ich liebe es aber auch zu reisen und neue Kulturen kennenzulernen. Deswegen halte ich mich gerade viel in Mittelamerika, speziell in Mexico auf. Ich versuche nun selbst neue Sprachen zu lernen, wie Spanisch und Plattdeutsch, und hier ist mir besonders bewusst geworden: man macht die größten Fortschritte, wenn man sich traut, sich mit Nativ Speakern zu unterhalten. Genau das möchte ich dir anbieten: entspannte, lockere Gespräche, die dir helfen, deine Sprachbarrieren abzubauen und deine Deutschkenntnisse im Alltag anzuwenden. ✨ Ich freue mich dich kennenzulernen und auf die Gespräche mit dir! Bis bald! 🤗

Native German from Vienna | Conversation, Pronunciation & Job Interviews - Hi, I’m Willy, a native German speaker from Vienna, Austria. I have many years of experience in leadership, training and developing people, and I also have experience teaching in schools. In my German lessons, I focus mainly on conversation, pronunciation and practical German that you can actually use in everyday life. I can also help you prepare for job interviews, improve your speaking confidence and feel more comfortable using German at work. I speak clear standard German, but since I’m from Austria, I can also show you some Austrian expressions and explain how German is spoken in Austria if you’re interested. My lessons are relaxed, supportive and adapted to your goals. You don’t have to worry about making mistakes. That’s completely normal when learning a language. I also speak English fluently, so if something is difficult to explain in German, we can always switch to English for a moment :)
