About Me

I have a huge passion for sharing my knowledge, especially when it comes to teaching languages. After my fair share of learning new languages over the last years, I understand the frustration and confusion the process can cause. I aim to create lessons which are enjoyable and rewarding for both parties and ultimately want to help you gain confidence in your language abilities.
I am an adaptable person and can cater lessons specifically to your needs, as I know that everyone is different especially when it comes to learning.

Are you looking for support for your child? Does your child have difficulties following the subject matter of the IB Diploma or Abitur and feels overwhelmed?

Your reason for reading:
Ever since I was born, my curiosity has never been contained - I was always looking for new challenges and as soon as something interested me, I wanted to know everything about it, no matter how long it took. Among my friends and colleagues, I am known for familiarizing myself with new topics in a very short time and developing a profound understanding

The key to success: Education.
In my opinion, free education is the highest and most valuable asset we have and we should do everything we can to continuously educate ourselves.

At this point, it would be wrong to say that "unfortunately" everyone is knitted differently. Thank God this is exactly the case and this is where the biggest problem in our society begins. Even in the early years we are not optimally encouraged. Parents try their best to give their children the best education, but they and the teachers are often overwhelmed by the situation at school. Of course, this is not entirely the fault of the teachers. Imagine supporting 30 children individually in 90 minutes. Effectively this means 3 minutes for each child and now they see your own daughter or son trying to explain a complex task in that time - let's be honest! Here it quickly becomes clear that this is not only too little time for your child, we would also fail because of it.

Always looking for self-optimization:
Self-optimization has rarely been worth as much as it is today. I teach students from all walks of life and this is what I love about my job and why I ended up becoming a personal coach.

Inflation does not only exist in the economy, knowledge is also inflationary in education. Once we stop and continue to educate, over time our level of knowledge becomes less valuable. So we have to do something to educate ourselves.

Achieve goals:
My goal is to give your daughter or son the best possible education in exactly the subject where most people fail - mathematics.

It doesn't matter whether it's in the German Abitur or in the International Baccalaureate (IB Diploma), mathematics is a big hurdle for most people. My goal is to make this hurdle easier for your child. This includes not only dryly explaining tasks - no, but restoring fun and motivation. Nobody wants to study for something where they have the feeling of standing in front of a wall and only understand the train station.

In the end, I want your child to be prepared with a deeper understanding and to lose the fear of difficult tasks. For this, I optimize learning techniques, fill in gaps, and see where your child's individual goal is. In the end, your child should go to my lessons in a tailor-made way and optimally supported. Of course, I'm not a silver bullet and development varies from student to student, but my personal aim is to offer you premium service clothing that is otherwise rarely found on the market.

Thank you for your interest

My name is Gosia and I have Bachelor's Degree in English. I have also lived in the UK for 10 years.

Do you ever freeze with nerves at the thought of speaking English?
Do you ever feel lost for words?
Would you rather send an email than pick up a phone?

If yes, then I am here to help you break that language barrier!

Every lesson will be prepared around your needs to help you progress quickly. We will use videos, recordings and articles to build your confidence to speak easily!

I will help you prepare for exams/meetings/job interviews.

I am available to teach seven days a week, at the moment only online.

I am looking forward to hearing from you!

Bonjour à tous! My name is Hovhannes (Johannes in German) and I am a 22-year-old student interning in Munich.

I graduated from a French high school with highest honors in 2018, yet 3 years ago (in 2015) I didn't speak any French at all. I then spent 3 years to complete my bachelor’s degree in Economics and Management, with a major in Economics. From 2021 onward, I study at a French business school (Top10) for my master’s degree in Corporate Finance. Currently living in Munich, I am here to do an internship at BMW finance department.

During my 6-month stay I would love to share my passion for foreign languages with you. I’m a self-taught polyglot as I speak 5 foreign languages: French, English, German, Russian and Armenian. I am native in French, English and Armenian. Indeed, I learnt French 7 years ago, so I am already familiar with most of the difficulties and challenges that you are going to face in a language leaning process. It would be my pleasure to share with you my experience and the precious tips that helped me to learn and improve my language skills efficiently.

I am here to help you to improve your speaking/writing/reading/listening skills. If you are looking forward to taking an exam, I’ll be happy to assist you as I have taken several language tests and exams. For example, I scored 81,5/100 in DELF B1 level test after only 8 months of learning French from scratch. At this point I am more than ready to help others to succeed in their exams. The idea is that I adapt to the needs of my students and teach in a contextual setting. Thus, it will be dynamic, captivating and easier to digest the information. Additionally, given my economics and finance background, I can teach you the technical vocabulary pertaining to these realms, by going through/studying some articles from famous French newspapers (eg. Figaro, Le Monde etc).

I have 2 years of experience in teaching English and Russian to pupils. I loved it. Hence, I decided to teach once again as I have some spare time at my disposal.

Courses can be held either in English, German or French (up to you to decide!). Most importantly, I prefer teaching face-to-face, because interacting with people in real life is the most effective method for language learning, according to my recent experience. Finally, small groups can be made in order to make this experience more fun and interactive, especially if you seek to enhance your conversational skills.

Looking forward to meeting you soon. A bientôt !

I was born and raised in the US and grew up speaking both Spanish and English. I have taken both Spanish and English classes to an advanced level. I can provide help for adults trying to learn Spanish or English, students who need a helping hand studying or learning, and any other needs.

In our first class, I will ask about the goal of your lessons and we can go from there. When needed we can decide the best course in your language learning journey and I will provide assistance along the way.

Hello everyone my name is Elisabetta I was born and raised in Italy but I'm currently living in Munich, Germany finishing my studies. Since few years teaching Italian online, I had the chance to improve my teaching skills and especially meeting many students from all around the world keen to learn Italian.
One of the thing that I consider very important when we first approach the studying of a language is knowing why the student wants to learn a language, Italian in this case, to find the most suitable method. This will help both of us to find the goal and create the best program to achieve the result we want, and especially to make the class the most interactive possible.

Each lesson is fully personalized to your level, goals, and specific needs (exams, immigration, work, studies, administrative procedures).

Sessions can focus on:
- DELF, DALF, and TCF exam preparation (practice tests, methodology, assessment criteria, oral and written simulations)
- French for immigration and naturalization
- Administrative French (forms, letters, understanding official documents)
-Professional and business French (emails, meetings, interviews, industry-specific vocabulary)
-Improving speaking skills, pronunciation, and fluency
-Strengthening grammar and vocabulary in context

The lessons are dynamic, structured, and interactive, with a strong emphasis on speaking practice. I use authentic materials: exam topics, administrative documents, articles, videos, and professional dialogues.

Thanks to my experience as an oral exam jury member and as a DELF, DALF, and TCF examiner, I will help you understand exactly what examiners expect and adopt the right strategies to succeed.

Regular follow-up is provided, with clear objectives and detailed feedback to track your progress and build confidence.

Passionate about language learning, I adapt my lessons to suit my pupils.
I am currently studying a masters in sciences of learning at Munich so learning for all ages is my passion!
Last year wihtin French primary schools, I brought an interest for the English language at the same time to pupils who remained mute and were known for being behind in class, to pupils who were constantly dissipated and highly performing native speakers.
I use both fun and academic methods to enthuse my students while developing their linguistic foundations.
Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions!

I specialise in taking your English from functional to precise, persuasive, and professional in the moments that matter to you: job interviews, academic presentations, subject-specific exams, and high-stakes conversations.

** MY APPROACH IS PERFECT FOR **
**Goal-Focused Learners** You have a clear, specific target (job interview, subject-specific exam, or social situation) and want efficient lessons built around that one goal rather than generic textbook units. I quickly diagnose your starting point and design a focused plan so every session moves you measurably closer to that outcome.

**Learners Seeking In-Depth and Nuanced Feedback** You already communicate well in English but want to refine argument, tone, and style so your rhetoric is precise and powerful. We dig into structure and word choice, and you get detailed, line-by-line feedback that turns “correct” English into compelling English.

**STEM students & corporate professionals** You work in a technical or business environment and need your English to match your expertise. Drawing on my experience in tech and corporate strategy, I help you refine the vocabulary, jargon, and communication patterns you use in reports, slide decks, emails, and meetings so you sound as confident and credible in English as you are in your field.

** TEACHING ETHOS**
I have lived and worked in 7 countries and self-taught 3 languages so I have strong sense for the situations where complete confidence in a new language is critical: being able to quickly and fluidly reply in a social setting, using the appropriate jargon to convey complex ideas in an academic settings, confidently asserting your opinions in a business meeting, navigating bureaucracies in your new home country, ensuring that job applications and interviews genuinely reflect your abilities.

I also understand the effort and opportunity cost that can go into making time to study a language and, having been on the other side of this platform looking for tutors in German, I appreciate the leap of faith when choosing a tutor. As a result I am committed to delivering you the best value for money lesson with high-impact and targeted learning strategies which set you up to continue progressing until our next session. More on our lesson structures below.

** ABOUT ME **
- I am a native English speaker from New Zealand with excellent academic writing skills and deep appreciation for the finer points of the English language. I have won several speech awards and an NZQA scholarship for Literature.
- Scored 97th percentile for Verbal Reasoning on GRE & 94th percentile for Critical Reading on SAT.
- Former executive for a fortune 500 company and worked in tech development for many years (SpaceX research grant, patent for computer vision)
- B.Sc. in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign
- Current graduate student in Science and Technology Studies at TUM
- Experience tutoring academic writing and physics, mentoring elite students, and coaching students in various competitive environments

** TEACHING STYLE **
- My teaching style is calm, organised and collaborative. In our first lessons I like to “diagnose” what scenarios or milestones matter to you and what is really blocking your English.
- Based on the scenarios and milestones we will work with role play those exact situations and work with real-life texts (meetings, errands, presentations, phone calls etc) so I can explain why some phrases and structures work better than others, and then we can practise them until they feel natural.
- Based on the blockers we can zoom in on the problem areas—whether they be vocabulary, pronunciation, grammar habits, or structural uncertainty—and then build a simple, efficient plan to fix it.

** LESSON STRUCTURE **
In our first lesson we will talk about your goals, current level, and one concrete situation or text that matters to you (a presentation, interview, exam, email, or everyday scenario). We will do a short diagnostic (speaking and, if useful, a short piece of writing) and then design a study plan that fits around your schedule and focuses on the skills you actually need rather than generic textbook units.
Typical lessons include a mix of:
- Roleplaying specific situations with clear feedback on pronunciation, rhythm and natural phrasing
- Discussing texts which require defending an opinion using vocab and rhetorical techniques specific to your goals
- Focused examination of problem areas to identify underlying misunderstanding or pattern
- Spaced interval repetition of mistakes from previous weeks
- If applicable: Academic or professional writing support; targeted grammar and vocabulary work; exam preparation including test strategies and timed practice using real tasks
- After each session you leave with a short, realistic practice task and clear notes, so you know exactly what to focus on before our next lesson.

Russian is a fascinating and widely spoken language. In this course, you will learn the basics step by step – from the Cyrillic alphabet to simple everyday conversations.
I am a native speaker myself and have always had a great interest in languages and intercultural exchange. I have lived in Germany for over five years, so I can also explain the lessons in German or English. Nevertheless, it is best to learn as much as possible directly in Russian in order to make faster progress.
The course is simply structured and particularly well-suited for beginners. You will learn to introduce yourself, speak short sentences, and master typical everyday situations in Russian. We practice reading, writing, pronunciation, and the most important grammar rules in an understandable and practical way.
My course is open to children, teenagers, and adults interested in Russian language and culture. I have prior experience teaching children—both in schools and kindergartens, where I worked as a babysitter. In these roles, I helped children become familiar with the Russian language and develop their language skills through play, enabling them to retain these abilities in the future.
