About Me
I am a final-year PhD student at the University of Oxford. I grew up in the Swiss mountains and went on to study Social Anthropology and Classics at the University of Bern after graduating high school as valedictorian. During my undergraduate studies, I discovered my passion for learning and teaching languages, and I began tutoring university students and independent learners in Latin, Ancient Greek, English, and German. In 2019, I moved to Oxford to pursue a Master's at the University of Oxford, which I completed with distinction.In my free time, I enjoy going on camping adventures with friends or on my own. I always carry a good book of poetry for there is no greater joy than reading verses while the wind whispers through the trees — nature and words entwining, as if the world itself joins in the rhythm of the poem.

Gabriel
Philosophy & German Tutor for Students and Independent LearnersI offer tutoring in Philosophy, Cultural Studies, Mathematics and German - tailored to your needs.
I hold a PhD in philosophy (Munich, Oxford) and a MRes in Social Anthropology (Cambridge). I have extensive lecturing and tutoring experience at different universities across Europe since 2012, including receiving awards for my teaching.
Whether you are passionate about your very own educational journey or working towards a goal at an institution, I am looking forward to getting to know you and work with you to make you achieve more.
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.

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.

Help with German homework after school (all levels)Hello, I'm here to help with your German homework! I was educated in the German language from the age of 6 until the end of high school. I later decided to get a certificate from the Goethe Institute to be able to tutor in German. I have years of experience in tutoring French and even English. On occasions the parents of my French students asked me to help them with their German homework, so I naturally decided to offer this as a separate option on Apprentus.
Feel free to send me a message if you have any questions!

Private lessons in languages: German - French - EnglishBachelor's student in economics and management offers private lessons in German, French and English.
I obtained my bachelor's degree with a specialization in mathematics and physics and I have sufficient knowledge in mathematics, physics, chemistry, German, English and French.
In my teaching, I adapt to the learning conditions and the student's life in order to strengthen their self-confidence and ensure that they understand the lessons and progress.
My goal is to create an effective learning environment. I rely on the student's course, which I supplement if necessary with additional information.

German Classes. Customised to individual needs. Mulitlingual Tutor certified by Cambridge University.It is important that a language is lived, not just learned. This is the advantage of personalized German lessons with a private tutor. I have a broad knowledge base in many language backgrounds. Regardless of the language, I think learning is easiest when respecting your unique background and motivations, as well as the intricacies of your mother tongue. Above all, focusing on the commonalities rather than the differences.
I believe in a personal approach. This means I will sit down with you and figure out what your goals are, your strengths, and your resources, either in person or via online tutoring. I can:
- provide stand-alone lessons with course material tailored to you
- support courses by language schools like benedict, inlingua, ils, dialogica...
- target practice for exams & certifications like fide, Goethe-Zertifikat, telc, SDS...
I have a master’s degree in German Studies, and I am certified by the University of Cambridge. Besides extensive work as a translator, I also have experience tutoring foreign university students, giving courses to expat families as well as tutoring refugees, and even teaching my Czech girlfriend. Not just in English and German, but also specifically working to understand the Swiss dialects.

Success for French and German GCSE exam-takers (UK)Are you gearing up towards your exams? Imagine the big difference between just failing to solidly passing your French or German qualification. Being successful in (any) exams is a mix of knowing what the examiners are looking for, knowing how to avoid the traps they set for you and how little magical tricks can boost your marks. And each of the four papers - Written, Reading, Listening, and Speaking - have their own quirks.
This ‚exam know-how‘ is rarely taught explicitly in schools.
I can teach you to be a super-savvy, as well as building your knowledge of the French or German language, of course, because I know you’ll want to continue with your MFL studies to A‘ Level and beyond!
