About Me

I bring the best out of students. Working with young people from vulnerable backgrounds as well as with special educational needs I have come to realise that my teaching methods are very intuative and based around listening to the individual and building on their strengths.

Ophelia
ENGLISH and GERMAN LESSONS FOR CHILDREN/ TEENS/ ADULTS BEGINNERS TO ADVANCED
Hello everyone and welcome to my English and or German lessons taught in group. I organise English and German lessons for children and teenagers and separately adult English group lessons (beginners to advanced). For children and teenagers, interactive activities are used as a way to motivate them, help them remember what they have learned in class and make sure they will be able to apply their language skills in real life context. For the adults lessons, depending on what the students are willing to learn, we can have discussions based on the news, some grammar, writing... I am open to any suggestions, just tell me your needs and I am going to adapt the next lessons for you. If you wish to invite your friends and make a group with them, just let me know and I will allocate you a time slot. For private English lessons, please have a look at my other advertisements. The German lessons are usually for beginners/ intermediate (exceptionally advanced levels in German can be organised only if there is a high-demand). Don't hesitate to contact me should you have further questions. It would be a huge pleasure to integrate you in one of my classes. :-) Lessons usually last 50 minutes.

Language course (Romanian, French, German) for beginners and advanced
Hello ! I propose interesting methods for language learning! I offer language courses (German, French and Romanian) for children but also for adults! Since everyone has their own way of learning a language, I can vary my work methods depending on the student. The courses I propose are mainly for beginners who wish to learn Romanian, French or German. So I can use these 3 mentioned languages to teach but of course I can also use English or Spanish

Sascha
Learn foreign languages with charisma (German, Spanish, English, French)
I am a native German and Spanish speaker and a general language enthusiast. Besides German I speak English, Spanish, French Having learned several languages myself, I am sure I can teach you German in a fun and relaxed way. My goal is to speak the language as much as possible with my students. Immersion is the key to language learning. Think of little children. They are language geniuses. Why? Because they speak as soon as their brain allows them to speak, without worrying about making mistakes. Therefore, it is essential to start using the newly learned words immediately in order to prime our brains to become familiar with the new language. Do you already have knowledge of German? No problem! Instead of building the basics, we can design courses that meet your personal needs and preferences. My classes combine speaking, listening and grammar exercises interacting with me. In addition, I show you German food, music and places. On top of that, I introduce you to the best technology tools (homepages and apps) to boost your language learning and take it to the next level! I am extremely confident that you will have the same success I had in language learning very soon! I look forward to hearing from you! See you soon!
