We would start by introducing ourselves and I would like to know if my student is already an intermediate speaker. Then I could make more precise plan of our lessons. It also depends on how many times a week would the student like to practise German. I mostly use books "Schritte" and "Sicher". I suggest my students to always do something as a homework, because that way we learn so much more. It doesn't have to be writing some boring essays, but also watching a movie in German which makes us hear new phrases and understand the pronunciation of words. It could also be reading a funny article. In this case they could notice how the Germans write. Basically it all depends on the mood of my students and we could discuss every possible option.

Even though I do not have any experience in teaching German, I still believe that I am the right person for this due to my communication skills and my creativity. I have my methods that have helped me learn this language and I believe they are suitable for these students too. Learning a language is not always just about grammar, but about engaging in conversations. It is very important for young people to feel confident enough to start speaking in another language. Since I was an exchange student in Vienna, I learned the language mostly through everyday conversations and right now I would like to encourage other people to talk to me about simple everyday happenings.
