German, Italian and Hebrew classes by an expert (Ph. D. )!
I am a German, Italian, Biblical Hebrew and Aramaic teacher with a wide international experience. I worked in Italy, Germany, Austria, and since 2018 I have lived and worked in the UK (Edinburgh).
I offer classes both for *individuals* (one-to-one tuition) and for *groups*.
It does not really matter whether you are a complete beginner or have studied the language before, my classes will be the perfect fit! As each person learns in her/his own way, I provide tailored lesson plans to meet your individual needs. I work at your own pace, targeting your desires and problem areas. You will get homework only if you want to.
The first lesson normally is a quick assessment of your existing knowledge. Through chatting and showing you a couple of pictures/games, I can easily infer which level you are at. This process is very useful (and, believe me, it does not hurt! So, do not panic!) because it allows me to draft a learning plan, setting some *milestones* you can/will achieve (which will be reviewed regularly). They encourage and motivate you, and work as a stimulus to do your best in a very effective and productive way. You will be getting constructive feedback from me and we will be working towards your goals together.

Kevin
Polyglot specialist with 9 years of experience. German in speed mode. Level A1 to C2. No school teaching. I offer you a German course that is not like the others. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches:
If you travel back and forth by train every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options:
1) Memorise the timetable.
2) Realise that the train comes every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m.
In school pedagogy, in textbooks and in normal lessons, the first approach is used - in the course I am offering you, it is the second approach because it is more economical and faster.
My offer is aimed at both pupils and adults who want to learn the German language without time-consuming detours through the madness of fruitless school methods.
Learning is easy, but unlearning things that have become bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, with my customised lessons you will greatly accelerate the learning process while having a positive attitude.
I offer German lessons for individuals or groups (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive science and historical linguistics in particular. My modular programme can be adapted on a case-by-case basis. The converging point of these modules is your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life.
What will not be covered in the course:
learning lists of verbs;
learning lists of nouns with articles;
learning words with their translations;
flashcards;
doing school exercises;
following the syllabus of a booklet;
imposing the English grammar on the German language.
What is particularly important to me:
to motivate my student and to give him a learning rhythm;
to encourage his creativity;
to befriend him with the language;
the letters and their sounds;
to strengthen the memory by training the phonological loop;
to teach blueprints instead of memorising sentences;
to explain how the language works in order to make my student independent as quickly as possible;
to eliminate common preconceptions, such as that 'der' would mean masculine and 'die' feminine, that the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, that verbs would be irregular, that declension would be random and therefore would have to be learnt with each verb...;
to put practice at the centre and only deal with grammar where necessary.
A first lesson will give you a sound idea of my pedagogy.
Elise
Private German lessons by qualified academicUniversity graduate in German language and literature (Master of Letters in German with specialization in medieval languages and literature) with a solid experience, gives private German lessons for all levels.
My lessons are adapted according to the needs of the student. They aim to consolidate concepts, fill gaps, prepare for exams (maturity, compulsory school leaving certificates, entrance exams to gymnasiums and universities, Goethe Zertifikat up to B2). Opportunity to learn the language.
For school supports:
This is above all long-term work, which implies on my part taking the time to "learn how to learn" in an effective manner: every exercise is explained in detail, which can make its execution easier. slower. Quality takes priority over quantity in order to obtain optimal results over time.
Students bring their own course materials (notebooks, books, audio CDs, dictionaries, assessments, etc.).
Another important point: in order for my help to be beneficial, it is necessary that the student provides regular personal work between lessons. This essentially involves rereading your notes, repeating exercises similar to those carried out together or even moving forward in learning vocabulary.
For conversation classes:
The topics are based on interests and/or specific needs for exam preparation. I attach particular importance to pronunciation, fluency and vocabulary. I usually correct at the end of a conversation exercise with detailed feedback, in order to avoid any blockages and to work on fluency. Depending on the level of the students and/or their expectations (exam preparations/assessments/desire for improvement for example), I work on the choice of appropriate words, grammatical accuracy, the ability to formulate more or less complex sentences.
For exam preparations:
The courses offer to acquire solid tools to learn to write, to comment on literary texts and a methodology to work on oral comprehension. The student must bring their own exam preparation brochure, available in all bookstores. For Goethe Institute model exams, the exam books from Cornlesen are particularly suitable. The other alternative would be to download and print before the start of the course a copy of the Goethe Institute exam available on the institute's website.
For the oral comprehension:
Work from audio-visual viewings downloaded from the Deutsche Welle site, which offer various recordings adapted to all levels, with a very concrete approach. In the long term, the student acquires ease not only in oral comprehension, but also enriches his basic vocabulary through exercises. I also work on the Goethe Institut oral tests to familiarize myself with speaking.
For the work of the written expression:
I begin by explaining in the first lesson some methodological tools to acquire writing skills. The student has the opportunity to start writing during the course or do a writing exercise on duty and give it to me to correct (send by email or at the beginning of the next lesson). The corrections are explained in detail. In addition, at the time of booking, the student can send me a draft copy before the lesson so that I can meet his needs even more quickly.
Apart from my presence with the student, every lesson involves preparation time before and after the lesson, particularly for the work that I correct. My goal being to design an individualized course, I take the time necessary to write detailed comments on corrected work or advice to ensure maximum success for everyone.
In addition, each student can contact me at any time outside of class by email if necessary.
Feel free to contact me for more information. :)

German 🇩🇪 ✨ differently for young and old 🤗 with compunction, humor and magic ✨Möchten Sie Deutsch lernen? If you've always dreamed of saying “Guten Tag” with a mischievous smile, these courses are the perfect opportunity for you to dive into the fascinating world of the German language! 🇩🇪
I can provide academic support for children, as well as individual lessons for professionals or anyone else interested. In Besançon or by video.
Usually, I teach a multitude of subjects in alternation, putting priority on the student's wishes. Together we will break through the tangled maze of German grammar brilliantly. 🇩🇪 And to brighten up the lessons, I have a lot of tracks in my repertoire such as humorous poems by J. Ringelnatz or songs. Also, I always find it pleasant to support beginners in their first steps. 🤗📚
My arsenal? An online portal with links and materials that I personalize for each student and a mind map at the beginning to present all the themes I propose. I will send you on request. Some exercises I did myself, often with the help of AI. I can recommend some nifty software and give you incentives so that you can continue learning very effectively yourself. And inspire you to learn the long works of Goethe and Schiller with new vivacity. 💡
My particular passion is German compound words, a real linguistic puzzle! How would you translate Handschuh = "shoe of the hands", Zebrastreifen = "zebra strips", Dachboden = "roof floor" or Friedhof = "court of peace. And for the advances, what is it about with the " Aufmerksamkeitsdefizit-Hyperaktivitätssyndrom"? (I will send you answers on request (; ) 🤓🇩🇪
For the curious, what concerns your teacher:
Born in Northern Germany and since 2020 in Besançon. Graduate in geography. I have already taught German in various projects in Togo and Kyrgyzstan. I have already taught German in various projects in Togo and Kyrgyzstan. In Besançon, I worked as a German teacher for the "Maison Blanche Formation", a language school for professionals and for the Scops association. 🌍👨🏫
The lessons can take place in my apartment in the city center of Besançon, at the student's home, against a possible travel expense depending on the distance or by video. And surprise, I also provide academic support in mathematics, English or multi-subjects. 🎓💻🗣️
So, ready for an extraordinary linguistic adventure? Johannes, the spell master is waiting for you! Prost (that's "cheers" in German) and see you soon! 🌈👋
