Learning German for beginners - grammar, vocabulary, conversational skills.

I teach German to beginners, who would like to improve their speech, writing and general apprehension of the German language.
Maybe you are moving to Germany and don't know where to begin (as was the case with me 3 years ago!), or you are planning a holiday and would like to communicate successfully. Maybe you are preparing for an exam, or are simply interested by the language and would like to learn more. Whatever the case, I would be delighted to help!

Lessons will focus on a variety of topics, geared towards your language learning goal. This will prodominantly include grammar - the four cases, sentence structure, conjugation, etc. - vocabulary, and conversational work. I also have experience with phonetics and German diction, which I studied as part of my university degree. I can therefore assist you with correct pronunciation. I have several course materials through which we can work. These would take us thematically through topics such as culture, careers, hobbies and many more. I can also offer general conversational practice, if you are looking to practice and boost already acquired skills.

My lessons are always tailored to my students needs, and I aim to create a friendly and inspiring atmosphere. I believe above all that learning should be fun, relaxed, and move at a pace that you find both invigorating and enjoyable!

Extra information

If you want to work through one of my advised course books, then you would preferably order a copy for yourself. If you already know what material you want to work through, please let me know so that I have time to acquire it prior to lessons. This can be discussed during the lesson.
Otherwise, just a pen and paper to take notes!

About Me

I am a British Soprano with a Bachelor degree in vocal performance and a passion for all things art and culture. I love reading, cooking (eating), and practicing yoga. A teacher of two years experience, I have enjoyed understanding how students learn, and seeing them grow in both ability and confidence within their respective subjects.

During my Bachelor degree, I gained a deep understanding of vocal technique - learning how my voice worked and what 'healthy singing' means. In this time I also studied phonetics, correct diction in Italian, German and French, Alexander technique, acting and body movement. I have an extensive repertoire, from baroque to modern music, and have performed many times both as a soloist and as a chorus member.

I have lived in Germany for two years, learning the language from scratch, and plan to enrol in a master degree (Music) in September. Learning German from a beginner to an advanced level has further deepened my interest in languages and helped me to develop further tools for teaching. I have taught English as a foreign language for over two years, and enjoy working with a variety of students at different levels. Helping people reach their language goal is just as interesting and engaging for me as I hope it is for them! I have subsequently begun teaching German to beginners up to B1/A-level.

My approach to all teaching is very versatile. I aim to create a lesson style that suits my student and supports their individual needs in an inspiring and friendly environment. I believe that learning should be fun, relaxed, and move at a pace that you find both invigorating and enjoyable!

I look forward to hearing from you,
Ella

I really like the lessons with Ella, we are working precisely on my technique. She is very nice and funny. I enjoy the class with her!
I teach English as a foreign language at all levels, to anyone wishing to improve vocabulary, polish pronunciation, or generally gain confidence in speaking and communicating successfully. I aim to create a lesson style that suits my student and supports their individual needs in an inspiring and friendly environment. Whether you want to learn thematically, prepare for a presentation or exam, or simply practice conversational skills, I believe that learning should be fun, relaxed, and move at a pace that you find both invigorating and enjoyable!
I am soprano with a Bachelor's degree in Vocal performance, focusing on Opera, Lied and Oratorio. I teach anyone of any age, from beginner to intermediate, who has an interest in learning to sing. Although my repertoire focusses on classical music, I am happy to work through a variety of genres including folk, musical theatre and popular music, all of which I have experience with. Everyone's voice is unique, and this is one of the beautiful qualities of singing that I am so passionate about. I therefore create lessons tailored to each individual. Lessons will focus on technique, repertoire and interpretation, all of which will help you to build and understand your own true voice. Whatever your goal, I am happy to help!
I offer English lessons to all people who want to improve their English. I can help you with vocabulary, pronunciation, and grammar. Lessons with structure and topics are possible, as well as general entertainment if you simply want to converse more comfortably and fluently in English. I teach in English. This allows you to understand the rhythm, grammar and feel of the language more deeply, build your confidence better, and overall learn the language faster! I create a positive learning atmosphere and adapt my lessons to the individual requirements of the student. Most importantly, you feel comfortable, inspired, and have fun in class!

✨French teacher - Pass the DELF or DALF (French diploma) - Individual or group session. ✨
Hello, I am Majda, French language teacher. I have been giving private lessons online since 2018. I offer special sessions that meet your needs and objectives to successfully complete your DELF (Diplôme d'Etudes en Langue Française) or DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language), including the TCF (French Knowledge Test). I have been supporting many interested people of different nationalities thanks to online courses since 2018; For me, helping enthusiasts to practice the French language is a very good experience because I understand that success is a capital objective in the life of ambitious people. I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, and also English. I explain my lessons in the language of your choice. And at the end of each session, I give lessons with exercises to do as homework to examine your gaps and monitor your progress. Here are some things to know about the DELF and DALF: The DELF (Diploma of Studies in French Language) and the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language) are two official and quality diplomas. They are harmonized on the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. They include the following six levels, in ascending order: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2. These two diplomas are suitable for all ages and all audiences. In addition, the DELF B2, and increasingly the DALF C1, allow students to enter French, European or French-speaking universities, and certain Grandes Ecoles. Will you have DELF or DALF exams to pass? Do you need to follow specific sessions with me to improve your level? Don't hesitate to book your sessions so that we can start the preparation. I am available !
