Conversational German - practice your German having fun conversations & become confident

Van 25 € /h

You already know some German, but you are shy to speak?
Or you just switch to English or other languages, because it feels just too difficult too explain yourself in German?
I feel you, I have been there too, when learning Spanish and Italian and I can help you overcome this obstacle!
Many reach this point where one gets frustrated, because it seems that you don't really progress any more in learning a new language, you feel just stuck...
But there is a way to get out of it: you need to overcome your hesitation and start talking... a lot.
I will provide you a safe environment, where you can easily start to apply your knowledge and gain confidence in having conversations.
Believe me it makes such a difference :)
Of course I can correct you and help you with a bit of grammar, pronunciation, etc. here and there, but this class is really about you practising to talk and becoming confident.
Feel free to contact me in English, Spanish or Italian (even French, although there my knowledge is quite basic ;) or of course in German if you want.
Looking forward to getting to know you! :)

My objective is to encourage you to get exited and curious, so that learning becomes fun instead of a "to-do". What are you interested in? I can provide tailor-made classes for any level and will adjust the classes to your personal interests, needs and goals.

I learned English and French "the hard way" in school and if it wasn`t for me travelling a lot and improving my English, I would probably have forgotten a lot, just like it happened with French. But later I learned SPanish and Italian a different way -a bit like small children do: by listening and speaking in a pleasant environment. And I my goal is to provide you this environment and the right stimuli, so that you can learn German without pressure and negative feelings, but instead with joy and having fun.

German is my mothertongue, but I lived in several different places of the world and so I am also fluent in english and spanish and have a moderate level of italian.

As a background i have a PhD in Mountain Environment, an MSc. in Bionics/biomimetics and a BSc. In mechanical engineering and i did a course to become a wholistic health coach.
I am looking forward to get to know you ;)

Learn German your way! Native speaker offers classes that are fun and motivational

Languages are the door to different cultures and perspectives.
I enjoyed this aspect myself a lot and am enthusiastic to share my knowledge with you.
The most important aspect in teaching for me is to make you curious and enthusiastic about learning german. If you have positive feelings associated with the language, learning becomes a pleasure rather than a task!
Thus I will adapt the content to your personal interests, goals and current level.
I have experience teaching german in Bolzano at the "learning center" and in private classes.
We can arrange a talk previously to understand your interests, preferences and goals :)

Some 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 ones needs, gives very clear explanations and most importantly works on the pronunciation of the language. With every lesson she provides lesson material.

Hi I am Fariël!

I've been learning English and French since I was 10, and German since I was 15. I studied in Berlin, Paris, and Bristol, and later completed my bachelor’s degree Switzerland in French (C2 – native level). I also hold two EF diplomas in English (C2 – native) and German (B2). After that, I did my master’s degree in London.

In our first lesson, we’ll chat about what you want to focus on — maybe pronunciation, grammar, or vocabulary. I’ll get a sense of your level through a relaxed conversation, and then we’ll find the best way for you to make progress and enjoy learning the language.

I help both for private purposes, business and for school. My lessons are mainly result-oriented. It is my intention to achieve a maximum result in a pleasant way. I have already helped many children, young people and adults.
I adapt to the level and the intended result
I keep my lessons varied but still challenging.
I also really enjoy teaching students. I can teach them the basic knowledge they lack, while also working on the new knowledge they need to acquire.
I do my work with passion and 100% motivation.
It makes me happy to see that my students are also enjoying their progress, that's why I have a very good relationship with my students.
