Hello! I offer structured and friendly 1:1 tutoring in German as a native speaker for teenagers, students, and adults — from beginner to advanced (A1-C2). I have 7 years of tutoring experience with learners of different ages and levels.

What I can help you with:
- Speaking & conversation: confidence, fluency, pronunciation, everyday situations
- Grammar made clear: step-by-step explanations from a native speaker + lots of practice
- Writing: emails, essays, academic writing, corrections with detailed feedback
- Exam preparation: targeted practice and strategy (A1-C2)
- German for school/university: homework support, exam review, and structured learning plans

How lessons work:
- We start with your goal and current level
- I create a simple plan and choose materials that fit you (texts, exercises, speaking prompts)
- You get personalized homework (optional) and clear feedback so you improve quickly

Lessons are available online and in person if you’re nearby. Send me a message with your level, goal, and timeline, and I’ll suggest a plan for our first sessions :)

Over
Hi there :) I am Saphira and I moved from Austria to the Netherlands 1,5 years ago to do my Master’s in Astronomy at Leiden University. I started tutoring in high school, where I helped my classmates and younger students in various subjects. My main strengths have always been German and Mathematics. Since I began tutoring in high school and have continued ever since, I now have 7 years of tutoring experience with children, teenagers, and university students.

My teaching style is structured, patient, and goal-oriented: I break topics down into clear steps, explain the “why” behind methods, and help you practice until you feel confident. I’m especially good at helping students who feel stuck or think they’re “not good at languages/math”. We’ll build strong fundamentals and make steady progress.

I enjoy working with school students, and university students, whether your goal is better grades, exam preparation, improving conversation skills, or stronger writing.

Lessons are available online and in person if you’re nearby. Feel free to message me with your level, goals, and timeline, and I’ll suggest a clear plan for our first sessions!

As an MSc Astronomy student, I work with mathematics every day, and over the years I’ve learned how to explain it in a way that feels clear and intuitive, not overwhelming. What I would say I’m especially good at is helping students who feel like math is “not for them”: I break problems down into simpler steps, show the logic behind the method, and help you build confidence through practice.

I have been tutoring for about 7 years and have helped students improve their grades, prepare for exams, and finally understand topics they previously found confusing.

What I can help you with:
- Homework support and catching up on missed topics
- Exam preparation (practice questions + strategy)
- Building strong foundations: fractions, percentages, algebra, equations, functions, graphs, geometry
- Improving study habits and avoiding common mistakes

How lessons usually work:
- We start with your level, goals, and what your teacher expects
- I explain concepts step-by-step, then we practice together with similar exercises
- We’ll write short summaries and you'll get optional homework so you improve between sessions
- If you have a test coming up, we can do focused exam-style practice

Lessons are available online and in person if you’re nearby. Send me a message with the student’s school level/year and what you need help with, and I’ll suggest a plan for the first sessions.

As an MSc Astronomy student, I completed university-level courses in Calculus/Analysis and Linear Algebra during my Bachelor’s studies. Over the years, I’ve learned how to explain concepts in a way that feels clear and intuitive, not overwhelming. If you want to pass your course with more confidence, I can help by working directly with your syllabus, lecture notes, assignments, and past exams. Together, we’ll practice efficiently and focus on the types of problems that matter most.

How lessons usually work:
- We start with your level, goals, and what your lecturer expects
- I explain concepts step-by-step, then we practice together with similar exercises
- We’ll write short summaries and you'll get optional "homework" so you improve between sessions

Lessons are available online and in person if you’re nearby. Send me a message with your course name/topic and what you need help with, and I’ll suggest a plan for the first sessions.
