Certified by Goethe Institut, licensed Telc examiner, experienced full-time teacher Hello and welcome! Thank you for your interest in professional German lessons with me. I am an experienced full-time teacher of German as a foreign language. I hold a teaching qualification issued by the Goethe-Institut and am accredited by the German Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF) to teach government-funded German courses for the workplace and for medical professionals. I have gained over 10,000 hours of teaching experience at all levels and would be happy to help you learn my beautiful language in a systematic, structured and enjoyable way! I have a large library of digital textbooks that we can use as the basis for our lessons, and I make sure that the materials are ideally suited to your learning goals. I have also written and published my very own grammar textbook, which we can use in class as well. Most of my students are experienced professionals themselves who are preparing to build their careers in a German-speaking country. To give you maximum flexibility and independence in your learning journey, I suggest a blended-learning approach in which you invest a few hours per week in guided self-study and complement this with one interactive tutoring lesson per week. Of course, we can adjust the frequency of our lessons to your individual preferences, needs and schedule. If you have any special requests, please do not hesitate to send me a message. I will be happy to tailor the lesson content and teaching style to whatever suits you best!

Hi, my name is Mergim and I'm from Austria. I love learning languages myself and I understand the challenges that come up during the process of learning. With my experience of learning, I understand your difficulties and will help you get through the process. German isn't necessarily an easy language to learn, so I want to create a laidback comfortable space where you are free to try speaking German and use what you learned. I won't be teaching grammar, but I'll push you to keep speaking, make mistakes and improve the way you express yourself in German.

Relaxed conversation practice & colloquial German | Deutsch Umgangssprache | Jobinterview Training Hallo! Ich bin Elisa und helfe dir, Deutsch auf eine entspannte und natürliche Weise zu lernen. Ich bin mit Deutsch, Italienisch und Spanisch aufgewachsen. Englisch habe ich in der Schule gelernt, und seit 5 Jahren lerne ich Arabisch ! In meiner Freizeit tanze ich gerne Salsa und Kizomba, mache Sport, gehe auf Konzerte oder reise in andere Länder. Mir ist wichtig, dass wir eine entspannte und positive Atmosphäre im Unterricht schaffen. Mein Ziel ist es, dass du besser deutsch verstehst und sprichst. Ich konzentriere mich auf Umgangssprache: Sätze, Redewendungen und Ausdrücke, die man im typischen Deutschkurs nicht lernt. Aber sie sind wichtig, um Menschen im Alltag zu verstehen und auch um das eigene Deutschniveau auf das nächste Level zu bringen. Wenn du Fragen oder Wünsche hast, dann melde dich gerne. Ich freue mich auf dich! _______________ Hi! I’m Elisa! I speak German, Italian, Spanish, English and I’ve been learning Arabic for 5 years!

It’s important to me that we create a relaxed, casual, and positive atmosphere in class. My goal is to help you understand and speak German better. I focus on colloquial language: sentences, idioms, and expressions that you don’t learn in regular classes. But they’re important for understanding people in everyday life. If you have any specific requests or goals, please reach out! I am happy to meet you soon :)

From Chicago 🇺🇸 | Lived in Barcelona 🇪🇸 | Now in Berlin 🇩🇪 | 10+ years teaching experience 📚 Hello everyone! I’m a passionate language learner and traveler originally from Chicago. During university, I had the opportunity to study abroad in Barcelona, and that experience certainly changed my life. It sparked my passion for travel, cultures, and language learning. That journey eventually led me to learn German and move to Berlin, where I currently live. Because I’ve learned languages myself and experienced life abroad, I truly understand both the challenges and the excitement that come with learning a new language. If you want to build confidence speaking English, Spanish, or German, I’d love to help! My lessons focus on conversation because speaking is the key to improving naturally and confidently. One important thing about my teaching style: I will correct your mistakes. Making mistakes is an essential part of language learning — it’s how we improve. I create a supportive environment where you can practice, make errors, learn from them, and become a more confident speaker. I look forward to meeting you and supporting you on your language journey! --------------- Please note that I am currently only teaching one day per week (Tuesday evening Berlin time) at the moment. Thank you for understanding!

🌟 Welcome to My Classes! Hello! I'm Asia. I'm a native German speaker and a qualified early childhood educator, and thanks to my British relatives, I'm also fully fluent in English. For me, language isn't just about rules-it's about connection, culture, and feeling confident when you speak. In my English conversation lessons for the levels A1 to B1, we focus on real-life communication. We'll talk about topics you enjoy-travel, hobbies, work, or daily life-and I'll help you expand your vocabulary, improve your pronunciation, and feel more at ease speaking English. No pressure, just friendly, natural conversation at your own pace. For German learners beginning from level A1 to B2, I bring a completely different strength: my background in early childhood education. I'm patient, encouraging, and experienced with learners of all ages. Whether you're a complete beginner or just want to practice speaking, I'll create a supportive space where you can grow. I already helped many international students, especially east asian students, to reach their language goal. Let's learn together-at your pace, with your goals in mind. Book a trial lesson and say hello!

Native German Speaker | Experienced with Chinese Students I am a native speaker of German with lifelong interest in other cultures, histories, and languages — especially literary Chinese (文言文). I hope I can help people here almost as much as I myself have been helped. Over the years, I have taught students of many different levels — from complete beginners to advanced learners — including Chinese students and native speakers preparing for their Abitur (Germany) or Matura (Austria) exams. These exams are vaguely comparable to the Chinese 高考 or British A-Levels. In my classes, I try to go beyond mere memorisation and help students develop a natural understanding of the language. Many grammatical rules make far more sense once one understands the distinctions they express in everyday speech. This is also the reason for my nickname, MrSemantic. I teach German with a clear standard accent (Hochdeutsch) and on a high formal level that can serve students well in professional and academic contexts. At the same time, I am very happy to adapt lessons to each student’s personal interests and needs. When I am not here teaching you or recording audio to guide you through the jungle of pronunciation, I enjoy bird photography, vigorous exercise, and far too much reading.

Native German Speaker | Relaxed & Friendly Conversations :) Hi! I'm Salomé, a native German speaker from Germany. 👋 A year ago, I moved abroad myself, so I know exactly how intimidating it can feel to speak a new language. That's why I want my lessons to feel less like a classroom and more like a relaxed conversation over coffee. I'm not here to judge your German, I'm here to help you feel comfortable using it. We'll laugh, make mistakes (because that's how we learn!), and have genuine conversations while naturally improving your confidence, vocabulary, pronunciation, and fluency. I love traveling, reading, watching anime and K-dramas, dancing salsa, and getting to know people from different cultures. So if we have something in common, we'll never run out of things to talk about. ☕✨ Whether you want to prepare for life in Germany, practice speaking more naturally, or simply enjoy regular conversations with a native speaker, I'd love to help. I can't wait to meet you! 😊
