German with Wolfgang S.

My specialization is to prepare individuals for rigorous tests like the SAT I and II – German, AP German (Advanced Placement Test), and the challenging German language admission test at German universities in Germany. I have successfully taught German at all grades, in a traditional classroom, individually or online. I love teaching, consider myself patient, and can tailor my lesson plans to the student's needs. Furthermore, I spent two decades of my professional life teaching English in Germany, authoring and co-authoring textbooks for the English classroom. Since living in the United States, I have enjoyed teaching German from beginner to college level. My teaching experience ranges from children at the elementary school level to adults who need German language skills for their careers or enrichment. During my stay in the US, I had the opportunity to develop curricula for teaching German in public and private schools. I wrote articles in the field of German literature. Undoubtedly, my academic background (MA in German and English and a Ph.D. in education) helps me provide solid work for my students. Back in Germany and the States, I had ample opportunities to teach individual students German or English as a Foreign Language. The age range was as young as 8, while my oldest student was 78. I am looking forward to passing on my knowledge and skills in the German language to anybody who is curious about learning this language online with anybody in the world. Willkommen! Welcome.
