Conducting a conversation in German for 60 minutes

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I am a professional economics and legal tutor with a bachelor's degree in economic law ZHAW.

If you need someone to speak to you in High German to improve your conversation skills, I would be happy to help. It's not about complicated theoretical concepts, just talking and practicing. Without constraint and without pressure.

In addition to German, I speak fluent English and very little French. As you have to speak German, it is even an advantage. I am at your disposal online via Skype, Zoom or Teams for German practice lessons.

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I live with my partner in Uster in the canton of Zurich and, for the simple pleasure of learning, I still today online dozens of courses in American universities in the most diverse scientific fields. At the commercial, HES and university level, I have studied all my life both face-to-face and remotely and therefore know the academic requirements from the most diverse angles. From a didactic point of view, I attach great importance to network thinking and I use practical examples as much as possible so that the knowledge acquired remains better in memory thanks to an emotional connection.

During long language stays in Sydney, London, La Jolla in California and La Rochelle in France, I combined the desire to travel with learning foreign languages.

I am simple and helpful and I gladly pass on my knowledge to you on fair terms.

Kevin
Polyglot specialist with 9 years of experience. German in speed mode. Level A1 to C2. No school teaching.
I offer you a German course that is not like the others. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you travel back and forth by train every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Memorise the timetable. 2) Realise that the train comes every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in textbooks and in normal lessons, the first approach is used - in the course I am offering you, it is the second approach because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both pupils and adults who want to learn the German language without time-consuming detours through the madness of fruitless school methods. Learning is easy, but unlearning things that have become bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, with my customised lessons you will greatly accelerate the learning process while having a positive attitude. I offer German lessons for individuals or groups (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive science and historical linguistics in particular. My modular programme can be adapted on a case-by-case basis. The converging point of these modules is your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life. What will not be covered in the course: learning lists of verbs; learning lists of nouns with articles; learning words with their translations; flashcards; doing school exercises; following the syllabus of a booklet; imposing the English grammar on the German language. What is particularly important to me: to motivate my student and to give him a learning rhythm; to encourage his creativity; to befriend him with the language; the letters and their sounds; to strengthen the memory by training the phonological loop; to teach blueprints instead of memorising sentences; to explain how the language works in order to make my student independent as quickly as possible; to eliminate common preconceptions, such as that 'der' would mean masculine and 'die' feminine, that the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, that verbs would be irregular, that declension would be random and therefore would have to be learnt with each verb...; to put practice at the centre and only deal with grammar where necessary. A first lesson will give you a sound idea of my pedagogy.

Repetitive English course for all ages and levels
I offer repetitive English and German lessons, according to your school program or simply by wanting to develop in these languages. Having obtained my gymnasium maturity certificate in June 2020, I have an intermediate level B1 in these two languages with a small advance on English. I have vocabulary in both languages very favorable for improvement in the language we work.

Hello interested students! I offer German classes for all ages and levels of proficiency. My goal is to help students learn the language in a fun and effective way. I assign homework after every lesson and provide rich teaching material. I am here to keep you motivated on the rewarding path of learning German. Whether it is for work, school, university or out of personal interest, I can support you! I also specialize in preparing official language exams. More concretely, my specialties are: - Beginners: structured learning of grammar you need right away and practice of new knowledge in our dialogues. Vocabulary is taught through our conversations and in word groups. - A1-B2 exam preparation (according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages): based on practice material by the Goethe Institute, innumerous websites and own material - Learning by conversation: you can’t stand looking at too much grammar because it’s just not for you? The answer: talk and type! We’ll share a document with all our dialogues. - Refresher training: I can help you get back on track by letting you talk as much as possible. We can also go through grammar and conversation topics that you need to revise. The day of getting rid of pesky repetitive mistakes has come! You are lucky since brushing up on your German with me will be fun! - Children: they can be the most demanding students regarding learning methods, but I know how to capture their attention and make them excited for more German! Structure of lessons: From experience I know that continuity is key. Therefore, I encourage you to do a little (almost) every day. At the end of each level there will be a test to check if you are ready for the next level! I am looking forward to meeting you ! .

Individually tailored German and English Lessons with native speaker
Hi! My name is Sophie I am 26 years old and originally from Cologne, Germany. Currently I am studying at the Politecnico di Milano. I have been lucky to study abroad for my University education in the Netherlands and Italy. When learning new languages the most important part for me has been practising together with native speakers. Often the most important factor for mastering a new language is confidence. I can help you reach this confidence by practising English or German in a relaxed setting. And don't worry I also speak Italian so when really necessary I can also explain things in Italian.

Hiba
Apprendre l'Allemand facilement et rapidement
Hello Dear Student, My name is Hiba, I worked for years as a translator for German, then I worked in a language school in Hamburg. There I gained valuable experience in the methodology of teaching foreign languages to children and adults. According to my students, learning languages with me is a lot of fun and I am very happy to hear that, because I help my students to stay motivated until they reach their goal, because I simply prepare for each student an individual learning program that is tailored to his language skills and needs. So far, I have met and worked with wonderful students (of different ages) from all over the world. My students achieve excellent results, which makes me very happy and very proud! Students tell me often that they have no knowledge of German or that they have already forgotten what they have learned or that they have a language exam soon and if I can help and my answer is : Yes, of course. I work at your pace and according to your needs. Basically, the cours covered several areas, such as reading, understanding and prounciation. Since I love my job very much, I also accompany my students even outside working hours via WhatsApp, so I am always available if you have questions or need help. So don ́t hesitate to contact me! If you require more information, write me and I will be happy to answer your questions. I look forward to having you on my team soon, because you deserve the best. See you later
