About Me

I try to live according to serenity prayer: 'grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference'. And the law of attraction is one of my guiding principles: put positive energy into those things you want to attract; live your life based on love and not on fear. I love life and consider the challenges I encounter as experiences I can learn from most.
Thus I left my birth country of Germany in my twenties and travelled the world before I settled in Kenya, which is still my primary home. I have engaged myself for women's rights, youth empowerment and sustainable living in general.
Now that I am retired I see my role more as coach, mentor and advisor. I have accumulated so much knowledge, skills and experience which I believe are important to share with whoever wants to learn.

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.

German is often perceived as a complex language, but it is above all a logical and powerful tool for boosting your career or traveling with confidence in Europe. Whether you are a complete beginner or want to refresh your knowledge, I have designed this course as a practical immersion to break down the language barrier.

You will learn to construct correct sentences from the very first lessons, master pronunciation, and understand key grammatical structures without getting bogged down in theory. Together, we will work on real-life scenarios (daily life, professional settings) so that you can express yourself with confidence and fluency.

My name is Daniela. I am half German and half Mexican and lived the past nine years in the Netherlands to study International Relations and Environmental Studies. I truly enjoy traveling, learning new languages, spending time in nature. I have always been passionate about languages and connecting with people from different cultures through them. Spanish and German are my mother tongues. I also speak English fluently and have a good level of Dutch and French. Therefore, I can explain grammatical concepts and vocabulary in these languages too.

I have always enjoyed teaching and participating in language exchanges. I gave private lessons in German to students of secondary and high school for several years. I have a teacher's certificate for Spanish as a foreign language and am pursuing my Master in Language Teaching. I have taught Spanish at different language Institutes for several years and always continued with German lessons too.

I would be happy to help you improve your German, by focusing on your specific objectives as well as preferred way of learning. Personally, I like taking mainly a conversational approach. Practicing speaking and listening tends to be the best way to master a language. Besides this I can also explain the grammar and prepare exercises. For each class I like to focus on a specific topic and introduce a bit of grammar and vocabulary in a dynamic way and that is based on your interests.
