I am a German native speaker and experienced German tutor for all levels. I have a first class degree in Literature and History from the University of Vienna and an MA degree in Acting from the University of Essex. I am currently teaching individual students aged 5 - 75, as well as classes at German Saturday School Ealing and German courses for companies and colleges. I am experienced in preparing students for GCSE exams, Goethe exams as well as German Abitur. All my students have received excellent results in their exams (9/A*).

I won the Association of German Saturday Schools UK and Goethe Institute's Teaching Award 2025.

I have an enhanced DBS certificate and have safeguarding training for working with children.

I usually offer a quick call before our first lesson, so we can get to know each other, I can learn about your/your child's level and goals and can best prepare a lesson plan for you.

Trained actor and experienced media trainer - background in political speech writing
441.51 CNY /h
I am a trained actor from one of the UK's best drama schools and I have a background in publicity and politics: I worked as a publicist and media trainer for politicians for 7 years (my previous employers include Martin Schulz, president of the European Parliament, the Austrian Liberal Party NEOS and Sadiq Khan, mayor of London), accompanying them to their TV and media appearances and preparing them for interviews and TV debates.

As an actor, my credits include several feature films and a number of theatre plays, including "Richard II", "A Winter's Tale" and "Waiting for Godot". I am bilingual in English and German and am happy to work in both languages.

Whether you are preparing for a presentation, a media appearance, interview or you just want to improve your confidence in speaking in front of a group, I will make sure to tailor our sessions to your individual goals and needs.

Public speaking means sharing our ideas with others, which is an incredibly personal and vulnerable place to be in and I can offer you techniques to combat stage fright and enable you to be your best, authentic and confident self.

I offer you a new learning experience.

The focus is on practical application and theory is only introduced where intuition reaches its limits.

Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, my tailor-made lessons will accelerate your language acquisition in a positive learning environment.

You can book a complete course with regular sessions or individual lessons to overcome a specific problem, such as pronunciation or a particular point in grammar.

Learning a foreign language is not a linear process that consists of memorising a list of words, and speaking a foreign language is not an oral translation exercise.

There are two types of approaches to acquiring knowledge:

When asked what year follows 1999, you can immediately answer 2000 without having to think for a long time and, above all, without having memorised each number individually, starting with 1, 2, 3 ... You know that numbers are formed according to a certain pattern. With only ten digits, you can form an infinite number of numbers and always know which number comes next.

When it comes to the alphabet, words and sentences, it's more or less the same, but school pedagogy, school textbooks and regular lessons still follow the rote learning approach. In the lessons I propose, you will learn to use patterns because this is more efficient and faster.

Learning is easy, but unlearning bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible.

My offer is aimed at both young people and adults who want to learn German or improve their knowledge without wasting time on nonsensical school methods.

I offer individual or group lessons for German. The methods are based on cognitive science and, in particular, comparative linguistics. My flexible programme can be tailored to your individual needs. The programme focuses on your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life.

What is particularly important to me:

motivating my students and help them establish a learning rhythm;
encouraging their creativity;
helping them become more familiar with the language;
teaching them the letters and their sounds;
strengthening their memory by training their phonological loop;
teaching sentence building plans instead of memorising sentences;
explaining how language works so that my students can become independent as quickly as possible.


I look forward to meeting you.

I am a postgraduate (MSc) economics student based in Kingston, a native French and German speaker from the G-D of Luxembourg.
I am a passionate and patient polyglot tutor dedicated to helping students.

Classes I tutor:
German and French primary education and secondary education and economics related topics for secondary education and higher education. Furthermore specific tutoring for accounting and Dactylography (10 finger keyboard typing)

My first priority is to make sure that scholars have a clear understanding of the core skills needed to satisfy the requirements of the exam methodology. Fundamental requirements for French, German and other essay subjects, these include:
- a solid understanding of how to argue coherently and use evidence convincingly;
- a good command of grammar and syntax;
- confident use of a diverse and technical vocabulary;
- the ability to plan, structure, and write essays that score high marks efficiently.

I believe in making the process of learning to read, write, and think one which is enjoyable, satisfying, and challenging in equal measure.

Note:
I am also accepting 2 students at same time.

Learning a new language is both rewarding and extremely useful. German is spoken by tens of millions of people worldwide and can prove to be a valuable tool for the job market.

Additionally, a plethora of immensely important works of philosophy, literature, psychology and many more fields were - and are - published in German, enabling a speaker to broaden their field of knowledge. This class is perfect for those who are wishing to learn a new language, improve upon existing knowledge of German or those wishing to explore German literature and history more closely.
