About Me

Bei den Stunden ist es mir wichtig, dass wir gemeinsam mit dem Schüler/der Schülerin das Ziel des Lernens bestimmen. Ich beachte die Wünsche der Schüler (und ihrer Eltern). Während der Stunden nutzen wir Lernmaterialien von Schülern und können gerne Hausaufgaben erledigen. Außerdem könnte ich auch Extra-Lernmaterialien mitbringen, um bestimmte Aufgaben noch mehr zu üben, ein Lernthema zu wiederholen. Der Erfolg im Sprachlernen wird dadurch möglich, dass wir gemeinsam verschiedene Tätigkeiten trainieren, und zwar - Lesen, Hören, Schreiben, Sprechen. Darüber hinaus spielen Grammatik und Wortschatz eine große Rolle, die auch mittels verschiedener Übungen gemeistert sind.

Was auch wichtig ist, übertrage ich den Schülern die positive Einstellung und Interesse an der englischen Sprache.
Ich kann sagen, dass ich auf Schüler empathisch reagiere und sie unterstütze. Ich bin verantwortlich und pünktlich.

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.

I’m a qualified TKT English tutor.

I am so passionate about English tutoring and always tend to find a way to make lessons fun and easy. I mainly focus on speaking skills as it it one of the most important skills to develop. I speak British English and I hope that is not a drawback for you :D

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.

Ive been working as a professional music teacher (ukulele & vocal) since 2009 working with individual clients as well as group workshops in various institutions including the EPO, Music Akademie Süd, Swing and the City, Ente 39 etc. As I grew up bilingually (English/German) I have been teaching both in English and German and hold a Cambridge Proficiency Certificate. I am also a published writer of poetry and art. Recently I have started to take on private work as a translator and am now offering English and German conversation on all sorts of topics, creative contexts and settings for all those who wish to improve their language skills.
Language is a powerful tool and can shape the way we perceive and interact with the world. I enjoy making learning a creative explorative and personal experience, which has, i believe the greatest and longest lasting impact on the student.

Learning the Arabic language should be from an early age for the child to be able to pronounce the letters in a proper manner.
The method of education is based on some interesting activities for the child so that he does not feel bored, teach the children while they are playing.
As well as teaching the Holy Quran, which helps the child to have good control over the exits of letters.

About Me:
My name is Bridget, and I was born and raised in Boston, Massachusetts. I currently reside in Munich working in a Kindergarten as an English Erzieherin.

As a Teacher I:
I believe that enjoying your time while learning is of vital importance. I aim to take the usual mundane lesson plan and transform it into something that is fun and intriguing. I work with you to achieve all goals that you have in mind whether that be to pass a C2 test or just feel more comfortable talking to a friend in English!

What you will receive in a lesson:
I personally design all classes for you and try to tie in things that you enjoy. I work with you on every part of the language: speaking, reading, writing, listening (unless specifically asked to omit a certain part). I explain grammar in a palatable way and use it over and over in speech, so that you will remember and be able to implement it correctly in your own speech. And I correct you in a way that doesn’t make you feel self-conscious in your speech!

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 can help you improve your written and spoken English. I have gained a lot of experience as a private tutor giving English and Maths lessons in Berlin up to A level. We can work on which ever area you prefer whether thats reading, writing or speaking. I am a very patient person and also know what its like to learn new things especially languages. If you need me to explain things in German that is not an issue since I have been living here for 12 years and also studied engineering in German. I am happy to travel to your location for the lessons and we can do one hour or multiple hours, whichever you prefer. There is the option of individual classes or classes in groups. I look forward to meeting you and joining you on your learning journey.

I am a native Spanish speaker from Valencia. I have experience teaching young learners, high school students, and adults at beginner, intermediate and advanced levels. My lessons are dynamic, interactive, and adapted to each student's needs, always using real-life examples to make learning natural and practical. Teaching is something I truly enjoy, and I would love to help you improve step by step.

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.

I support students of all ages, especially children at bilingual schools, with learning French and English, with homework, reading, writing, and with communicating safely in everyday life.
