Hi there! My name is Sharon and I´m a native German speaker. I live in Bolivia, in South America, for 11 years now and know exactly what it feels like to be "lost in translation" ;-) As a former trilingual secretary/assistant, I always enjoyed very much to study languages. However, a new language also comes along with a new culture. Since I live in Bolivia I appreciate more and more the positive aspects of a certain culture. I love German punctuality and reliability. But now, I also appreciate the Bolivian laid-back lifestyle more and do not always feel stressed out. When I am not teaching, I love to bake German cakes and pastries since I miss this so much from Germany!

Sharon has been really helpful in improving my German. She has excellent teaching skills and knows exactly when to interfere and correct me or when to let go of something for the sake of the conversation flow. She also teaches the right amount of grammar when necessary and is very flexible with what to do in the lessons. I'm very happy to have found her on Italki. :)

I really enjoy taking Sharon's class. Among the several Italki teachers I have had, she has been the most patient and very good at encouraging me to talk, no matter how convoluted my brains get with the German word order. She is a very knowledgeable teacher of the German language and explains the nuances in a friendly and unstressful learning environment. Deutsch lernen macht Spaß mit Sharon!

Sharon is a competent and funny teacher. She gives you confidence in speaking and corrects with empathy. I look forward every week to our lessons as they are packed with material, topics and activities. The lessons are never boring, quite the opposite. I recommend Sharon especially if you are a beginner and want to learn German while having fun. Thank you Sharon, you are the best!!!
