Fun and effective German classes, Berlin and online
The best way to learn a new language is through natural interaction. And I believe that you learn most effectively when you feel at ease and when you are having fun!
You will see that each class is individually adapted to your personal learning style and that you can improve at your optimal level, because you will always be challenged but never overwhelmed.
I am an enthusiastic language learner myself and know the importance of a fun and knowledgeable teacher. Because I enjoyed learning with great teachers so much, I'm committed to be that for you in every class as well.
With this German class, you will get
• a very competent, patient, and fun tutor with years of experience
• a very supportive environment
• as many opportunities as possible to actually speak German, reflect on it, and improve
• 3-4 hrs of homework per lesson (if you want!)
• heaps of audio and video material as well as many exercises to help you practise all aspects of the German language
• and you will see how manageable the German grammar actually is!
Of course, you can adjust the classes to whatever you consider to be most relevant for you!
If you like my approach and want to improve your German, write me a message or book a lesson with me! I would love to help you with your German, whether in person or online!
You can start right away at any level!

Kevin
Individual German seminar for learning in turbo mode. All levels
THE PUPIL
This announcement is aimed at both pupils and adults wishing to acquire the German language. I offer tailor-made individual German seminars for levels A1 (beginner) to C2 (perfect mastery). My goal is to make my student independent as quickly as possible.
THE METHOD
Contrary to popular belief, German is a very tame language.
You are certainly familiar with the language courses at school. You are given lists to learn by heart and you are asked to do exercises completely unrelated to the reality of a speaker. We explain grammar to you by confusing French grammar and German grammar. This is why no one manages to express themselves in German having undergone this kind of method which has proven for a century that it does not work.
With me, my student has a second chance thanks to intelligent theory and pragmatic methodology. Indeed, I am currently writing a book on the acquisition of foreign languages.
THE TEACHER
I have 5 years of experience teaching German and an average rating of 5/5. German is my mother tongue, with no particular accent. I master French as if it were a mother tongue. I am fluent in English and Portuguese and have an intermediate level in Latin as well as some basics of Greek. My personal linguistic goal at the moment is to master Latin fluently orally.
To maximize the quality of the courses, the sessions take place by video call in combination with Google Drive:
- individual tailor-made course
- interactive text document
- interactive whiteboard
- photos or scans can be imported
- readable writing
- instant written feedback during speaking
- very flexible schedule
- no time-consuming trips
If you are interested, do not hesitate to contact me to arrange an appointment or to ask me your questions. I look forward to meeting you.

Private lessons / Tutoring / Methodological help in preparing for exams
Student at the School of Architecture in Paris.
I have been giving private lessons for 3 years. I teach from 6th to 12th grade.
My goal is to adopt the method that is most suitable to help the student progress.
As far as language lessons are concerned, I emphasize speaking and pronunciation...with work on text, organized written expression, oral expression in interaction and application exercises for different levels.

Individualized German Online Tutoring for Business, School and Private
I am currently teaching German on a one on one base through individualized online teaching via zoom or any other online platform. I teach German grammar as well as conversational German and German for business and/or research. Please don't hesitate contact me to find out more about my teachings by asking questions and letting me know about your goals and concerns.
I not only speak German as my mother tongue, but I also have excellent English skills and have taught adults and children in Japan, the USA and France.
While living in Japan, I taught English to biologists of a biotech-company. For this purpose, I prepared current newspaper articles corresponding to the interests of the students and the teaching objectives for the classes.
In class, the students and I used these articles to study the language, discuss the vocabulary and grammar as well as the language style used.
In New York, I did not teach a language, but fashion design at the University (FIT Fashion Institute of Technology, NYC) for several years. All classes were taught in English with the student body consisting of international students, which required detailed preparation of the class. At the High School of Fashion Industries (HSFI), also in NYC, I taught fashion design and creation to students grade 9 - 12. Here too, the lessons were exclusively taught in English. For my teachings, I developed daily detailed lesson plans to not only make sure that the predetermined class goals were easily reached, but also to ensure that the class content was tailored to the students' needs and that a positive learning climate was promoted.
Carolyn
German via online courses with a Berlin-born teacher
Hello,
As an adult, you regret not having learned German. It is possible to make up for this gap in 30 hours... your motivation will make the difference...
As a high school student, you want to prepare for your baccalaureate with complete peace of mind while supplementing and diversifying your knowledge of Germanic culture.
As a college student, you need more grammatical knowledge or you lack self-confidence.
Ich kann Ihnen behilflich sein!
Originally from Germany, I live in Paris and have been teaching my mother tongue there for 20 years.
Why German? Its structure is reassuring and formative. Then my students like to hear it other than through clichés.
Working with teenagers is also giving them the keys to success. Each being is unique. My lessons are therefore personalized.
I use multiple written media ranging from tales to essays, including poetry and historical texts. The grammar is also always there... To try is to adopt!

GERMAN LESSONS BEGINNERS CHILDREN/ TEENS (taught in English or French)
Do you want your children/teens to immerse themselves in the German language? The German lessons are usually taught in English in small groups (but can also be taught in French if the student doesn't know the English language). Private lessons can also be organised both in German (beginners) and in English (all levels).
Children are said to be fast learners; through the interactive activities, they will be eager to learn the language, remember what they learned and apply their language skills in real life context.
Why learn German?
German has the largest number of native speakers in the European Union. German is among the ten most commonly spoken languages in the world. It's always a huge advantage to know the German Language when working in Europe and even in non-European countries, most of the time, employers will look after employees who can speak many languages and in particular German.
Don't hesitate to contact me should you have further questions. It would be a huge pleasure to integrate your child/teenager in one of my classes. :-) Lessons usually last 50 minutes.

Professional German lessons in Skype! Grammar, Lexik, Speaking!
Hello, students! I`m a qualified (MA in German Language and Linguistics) and experienced German and Russian language tutor.
I would be delighted to offer one-to-one German language tuition to determined learners, who are eager to build up their current knowledge or to start from scratch, and who are committed to achieving a certain level in a very short time, from beginner level to extensive.
My professional focus is on improving communication skills using fast-track techniques. The pace of my training is intensive and dynamic with focus on developing grammar, vocabulary, fluency and how to use the language in authentic situations
I select a training program individually for every student depending on their level, interests, and goals.
-Active learning of grammar, an extensive conversation practice.
-Creative tasks that will make language learning fun and interesting. You will quickly improve your pronunciation, grammar, speaking, reading, writing and conversational skills.
If you want to improve your language skills or start studying German, you will definitely like my lessons that are individually tailored for each student according to the level and interest and aimed at your success!
Extra information
German lessons include:
- Proper grammar - tenses, conjugations, cases, genders
- Accurate pronunciation and accent reduction
- Vocabulary expansion/ conversation practice
- Developing oral speech.
But! I can change the lessons plan depending on your wishes and purposes.
The lessons look like usual face-to-face lessons at home. Good sounds and video quality, interactives materials,using the chat box, file transfers, sharing screens/links and giving examples,saving time-all this give better results then usual lessons.
Every russian lesson is good-prepaired and well-structured.
