Rego Park, NY German Lessons

What a beautiful language German is! No wonder there's so many famous German poets, playwrites and composers! And actually German is also very much used in todays international business world! Whether you want to get better grades in school or you just want to be able to have a simple conversation on vacation or apply with a German company, as a native speaker I can help you reach your goals!

Completely bilingual German/English speaker with 20+ years experience teaching and tutoring German to students from different cultural backgrounds. The goal is for students to be able to actively use the language and not be afraid to experiment. The focus is on meaningful conversation and reading authentic texts. Classes are creative, fun and held to 95% in the target language.

I have studied in Germany more than a year, and have had extensive speaking practice in a host of German-speaking countries and elsewhere. I also hold a degree from a German institution and speak many other Germanic languages fluently.

What is my approach? First of all, I listen carefully. I believe it is important for an excellent job to know precisely what my client wants to accomplish. Understanding this is the prerequisite to reach the goals of the student. There will be a permanent interaction between my client and myself to monitor the progress, eventually speed up the tempo or, if necessary, to slow down.

There is no dogma; there is only one main criterion: success.

Students will learn and improve written and oral skills, basic conversation, etc.

I love all things German and my aim is to encourage my students to feel the same. I've been teaching German for 3 years. My students go from knowing no German to being able to hold conversations to eventually completing their grad studies in a German speaking country!

Within the first few lessons, you'll be able to introduce yourself and before you know it be a German whizz. I try to base my lessons around modern German pop culture typically using current events as inspiration. My lessons feature video links, audio, worksheets, textbooks, and more.

Native German, teaching both kids and adults.

Wilkommen! After growing up at the beautiful Baltic Sea in Northern Germany, I studied one full year in Australia and then went to Ghana for 4 months until I ended up moving to Florida -always teaching the German and English language! I would be happy to share my knowledge & expertise about different vocabulary & cultures with you!

While I may be a grammar guru, I try to focus on the practical points of German as well. You may be learning hochdeutsch, or proper, German on paper, but I also want my students to be able to be able to speak the language and understand some German slang or culturally different words and phrases. Therefore I like to include lessons about the different dialects, cultures, and mindsets of the German people in addition to the actual grammatical makeup of the language itself. I also believe that the best way to learn about your own language is to learn another, so employ a technique, which involves teaching some English in order to better improve your understanding of German. I love the German language, and hope I can pass on the enthusiasm I have for the language to you as well - happy learning!
