My name is Ann (short for Andrea) and I am a German living in Ireland. Languages and different cultures have always been my passion. While in Germany, I graduated in business/economics and English. Afterwards, I lived in England for one year, where I completed an MA degree in Applied Linguistics at the University of Nottingham.
Back in Germany, I started teaching English and business studies in a public vocational college. In summer 2010, I met a very special man while on holiday in Ireland. In August 2012, I completely changed my life and moved to the beautiful Emerald Isle.
Travelling is important to me, and I have visited most continents. I love to read and write. Nature inspires me.

我的教學經歷
I am a very patient and encouraging teacher who loves seeing students succeed. My main goal as a teacher is to motivate learners, and provide them with knowledge for their specific needs.
My approach to classes can be very flexible. I am happy to have fun conversations - I love hearing about people's passions and interests, and I have lots of stories from my own life to share. However, if you are looking for a serious and structured lesson and grammar explanations, I can absolutely help you too.
I have been teaching for over 10 years, both in Ireland and in Germany. I enjoy teaching learners of all ages, but prefer not to teach children younger than 12.
我的課程內容與教學風格
My lessons are always interactive and fun. I am one of these people who actually enjoy grammar, so if you need help with grammar, look no further. My students have told me that my explanations are very clear. However, if you hate grammar and just want to talk, that's fine with me too. If you have a conversation class with me, I will summarise the main points in a document and forward it to you.
If you have no idea where to start and what to focus on, I am happy to provide you with materials and ideas. If you wish to talk about specific topics, we can absolutely do that too. I have a background in business and economics, so if you need language skills in this field, do let me know.

The classes with Ann are very enjoyable and I'm very happy with my classes so far! She is very charismatic, and her good energy keeps the classes the whole time very engaging. The mix class that I have, involving conversation and grammar are perfect to keep a good learning progress.

I cannot recommend Ann D. highly enough! Every lesson is thoughtfully prepared, engaging, fun, and productive. I like that the lesson time can be very structured or very relaxed depending on the learning goal, and I appreciate how flexible Ann always is when it comes to impromptu changes for whatever material we are working on. I have never been bored with a lesson and always feel like I have my own world-class private tutor. Ann is extremely supportive and patient, and her devotion to teaching the language is evident from the very first lesson, and never diminishes. (I've done over 100 lessons with her, so I know!) Ann is an absolute force that you'll want on your side as you are learning German.

Wir haben drei verschiedene Gesprächsthemen geübt, und der ganze Prozess war sehr entspannt und interessant. Ann hat wie immer geduldig meine Grammatikfehler korrigiert, und ich bin ihr sehr dankbar.

Ann gives well structured lessons suitable for my level of German. We are working through some texts at the moment, which introduce me to new vocabulary and help improve my grammar. Ann's lessons are enjoyable and make learning German fun.

Ann is a wonderful German teacher. She is super friendly, patient, and warm. I always look forward to my lesson and have a lot of fun learning new vocabulary. She makes me feel comfortable making mistakes and I never feel bad if I don’t know something. I’m very grateful to have a teacher like Ann!

I have done several classes with Ann so far and I love that even when my motivation isn't too high, Ann finds a way to make the classes interesting and at the end I leave the class with my motivation renewed.
