REVIEWS:
Chevaan:
Catherina is without a doubt THE best tutor we know. She is exceptionally committed and is always looking to inspire her students. She has consistently gone above and beyond the call of duty to help our son with his German. She provides excellent study material, engaging homework, and follows up to ensure that her students have really grasped the subject matter.

Brian:
Catharina has been teaching our 11-year-old daughter for the past few months and we are very impressed with her excellent progress in this short space of time.
Catharina has developed a very good rapport with our daughter and is patient and knowledgeable. Our daughter always looks forward to her next lesson and even hands in her homework on time! We would highly recommend Catharina to anyone who would like to learn a new language.

Afeisha:
Very professional, friendly, and informative. I feel like Catharina will help me to reach where I need to. She doesn't just teach from the book, she teaches in a way that will allow you to blend in with ease. I am excited to learn more from her.

Egle:
Great tutor! Catharina adapts lessons to one's needs, gives very clear explanations, and most importantly works on the pronunciation of the language. With every lesson, she provides lesson material.

Reviews (6)

Catharina is an extremely skilled and professional teacher and I can only highly recommend her lessosns.
Catharina ist eine ausgezeichnete und sympathische Lehrerin mit viel Erfahrung. Sie bietet einen strukturierten Unterricht an, dass mir die niederländische Sprache einfach näher bringt. Ich freue mich auf die weiteren Stunden mit ihr.
Excellent session. I am fully satisfied with the approach that Catharina took, where she first tried to understand the level and needs of the student and tailored the class for the student.
The lessons were perfect. She was able to support me in every domain whether it was vocabulary, grammar or other things I needed help with. She is always prepared before every lesson and takes time to review work inbetween lessons. Great teacher!
Extremely helpful and fun lessons. I can really recommend it!

Each class is tailored to the individual's requirements and/or needs. Want to improve career opportunities; learn or improve business Dutch, which will be the focus of each class. For those already are familiar with Dutch; expanding existing knowledge together with a deeper cultural understanding and insight. All students will be provided lesson schedules in advance for their review (time permitting). The main focus is on total immersion in a fun and comprehensible way, without omitting important aspects such as grammar, etc. SOME REVIEWS: Chevaan: Catherina is without a doubt THE best tutor we know.

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!

Cornelia
German classes (face-to-face or online) with a native
I offer individual 1:1 classes as well as group classes. Whether you would like to improve your level of German or start from scratch, we can find a way to work together. Whether you want to ensure that your son or daughter receives the support they need to feel confident while taking an exam, do get in touch. In my teaching, I focus on using diverse teaching methods in order to deliver motivating and inspiring teaching. I aim to tailor the classes according to your needs and learning stiles as each person has her or his own way to learn a language. As I am a language learner myself, I know also „the other side“ and I understand that it can be frustrating at times when it feels like you're not making any progress, but also how rewarding and fun it can be to delve into a different language and culture.

Lena
Private lessons/support for students – French, German, maths, sciences, etc...
At the beginning, I will assess the student's level, then I will make sure to adapt my lessons according to their needs. I prefer to work with the materials students receive at school. In addition to this, I will provide additional exercises in order to deepen the subject covered.

Sophie
German and English Lessons with native speaker in Milan
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.

German courses for cycle and college with work analysis + GRAMMAR + WRITING
German is an important language in the maturity curriculum, but it is true that it can be perceived as difficult, especially when it comes to the analysis of literary works. This complexity typically intensifies in middle school, when students are faced with more demanding texts and higher academic expectations. However, I firmly believe that, with the right approach, anyone can master German, even in the field of analyzing literary works. My approach to teaching German is based on methodical progression and a thorough understanding of concepts. Rather than feeling overwhelmed by the complexity of the language, we will approach each step of the work analysis process in a structured and accessible way. We will start by establishing a solid foundation in grammar, vocabulary and general understanding of the German language. Next, we will focus on literary texts adapted to the student's level, analyzing simpler works before progressing to more complex texts. Each step will be accompanied by practical exercises and in-depth discussions to reinforce understanding and mastery of the concepts.

Richard
German for Beginners, any age, but also for advanced students
I can teach you German, from the basic to the advanced level. My native language is German for more than 55 years. Send me a copy of your book and lessons. Or I prepare a funny lesson on my own. Between Geneva and Lausanne, I can come to your home. But via ZOOM or at my private location is also possible.

Anna
Learn German, a course for beginners and advanced
German is a useful language but not always easy to learn. I'm here to make the process easier. My name is Anna and I am currently in my final year of law school at the University of Geneva. I have been giving German and English lessons for over three years. I have a perfect command of German since it is my mother tongue but I also have a C1 university level certificate to support my skills. I have a lot of experience with young people of all ages and have a complete command of the language. I will make theory and exercises available if necessary. I hope I can help you progress in this wonderful language!

Elaine
German, English exam preparation for school and A1 to DSH
I help schoolchildren and adults to learn both German and English. With fun and empathy. What distinguishes my lessons is that I have a lot of patience for my students and practice with them until they understand it. Everyone loves teaching with me. I respond to my students' requests and my goal is to help students make progress without burdening them. I give assignments after every lesson and create regular progress reports.

Hiba
Learn German easily and quickly with Frau Müller
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 course 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

Sebastian
German course for adults and teens! (All skill levels)
I am a German native speaker and general language enthusiast. Besides German, I speak English, Swedish, Spanish, French and Italian. Having learned 6 languages myself, I am 100% convinced that I will successfully teach you German(in a fun and relaxed manner)! Therefore, I offer a money-back guarantee: Should you not be satisfied with the results of a course with me, I will reimburse you! I have been teaching since 2018 and am currently one of the most-reviewed teachers on this platform. I encourage you to pause here and have a look at my reviews. I am confident that you too will have a similar view after having had some classes with me. On top of teaching here on Apprentus, I have taught offline group classes for the Volksuniversiteit The Hague (A Volksuniversiteit (litt. folk university) is an institute for non-formal adult education in the Netherlands). I also taught for and underwent training with Berlitz, which is one of, if not THE largest language school in the world, operating in over 70 countries and 500+ locations. I am 33 years old, have an honours degree from Leiden University, The Hague, am calm, encouraging, and, most importantly, PATIENT. My main objective in classes is to make the student feel relaxed and at ease. I encourage you to speak without fear of making mistakes. In fact, I celebrate making mistakes. "Why?", you may ask. Well, making mistakes means that you are leaving your comfort zone. You are trying something that you are not already skilled at. You don't choose the easy path! People who never make mistakes are stagnant. Therefore, making mistakes should be CELEBRATED instead of shunned! So, good on you for mispronouncing "Nachmittag (Afternoon)", or using the wrong grammar when making a sentence! Here, let me help you get it right this time! :) Do you already have German knowledge? No problem! Instead of building the basics, we can design classes that meet your personal needs and preferences. We can write essays together, you can hold presentations about topics of your interests or topics that I provide, we can discuss current events, hold debates, you can write news-paper article summaries, or we deep dive into advanced grammar. Whatever it is that you enjoy and need: We can do it together. All my classes combine speaking, listening & grammar exercises in interaction with me. Unless you're a very advanced student, we will work with learning materials created by some of the best publishers for language learning in Germany. These materials serve as a red thread for our course that introduces new words, grammar, and exercises in a good pace and interesting manner which keeps you engaged and motivated. Furthermore, I show you German food, music and places. On top of that, I introduce you to the best technological tools (homepages and applications) to boost your language learning and take it to the next level! Another important factor for me is having a personal connection. Unless you prefer to "stick to business", which is fine as well, we typically start our classes by talking about how the weekend or preceding weekdays have been. I don't see my students as a resource to be extracted, but as people for whom I develop a genuine interest. Over the course of time, we both know what is going on in our respective lives and update each other about small or big life events. Having taught many students for multiple years, I can gladly say that I have made real friends thanks to our classes, some of which I even have met in real life. I am extremely confident that you very soon will have the same success that I have had in learning languages! So what are you waiting for? Get in touch now to book a first lesson in which we can get to know each other so that I can learn about you, your needs and wishes, which will allow us to design the optimal course for you. See you soon! Bis bald! Sebastian

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.
