Improve your communication skills in German - Let's focus on speaking!Kursbeschreibung

From 51 € /h

With this course I will help you to improve your speaking and communication skills in German as a foreign language. Most language courses in Europe focus on the CEF and speaking is just one out of 4 or 5 skills. In group lessons participants usually don't have enough time to practise speaking. As you usually need good speaking skills for your daily life in Germany or at work, we will work on your communication skills.
From CEF A1.2 to CEF C2, I will adapt all topics to your level.

Extra information

I usually work with digital course material, so you don't need to buy any course book.

Professional preparation for telc German exams & Goethe Certificate | Individual online lessons

51 € /h

Individual preparation for telc German exams and Goethe Certificates:

Do you want to successfully pass a German exam – for example, for work, recognition of your professional qualifications, or long-term residency in Germany?

I support you with targeted online one-on-one training that is precisely tailored to the requirements of the exam. As a certified examiner for telc German exams up to C2 level and with many years of experience in exam preparation for telc German and Goethe Certificate exams, I know exactly what matters.

Typical training focuses include:

- Writing: formulating and writing so that you pass this part of the exam with flying colors

- Speaking: exam simulation, useful phrases, confidence, and spontaneity

- Strategies for time management and problem-solving

Plus:

- targeted training to address weaknesses
- realistic exam simulations

If you have 3 months until the exam, that's ideal. If it's only 3-4 weeks away, I recommend 2-3 sessions per week.

Have you already attempted the exam but failed?

Then you've come to the right place. Especially after a failed attempt, structured one-on-one training helps you identify typical mistakes and improve them in a targeted way.

The lessons are:

- intensive
- clearly structured
- exam-oriented
- online or alternatively at my office

This training is aimed at motivated participants who want to prepare for their exam effectively and significantly increase their chances of success.

In the first session:

I will answer your questions and assess your current German skills. We will discuss the topics and dates. After that, you can get started right away.

I recommend at least 5 sessions of 60 minutes each; 10 sessions are ideal. If you would like to further develop or expand your German skills, you are welcome to continue learning with me long-term.
