My name is Judy, and I tutor German with a proficiency level of C1, working towards C2. My lessons begin with a test session to understand each student's goals—whether they're interested in German for cultural and artistic exploration, technical fields like medicine or engineering, or simply conversational practice. This approach allows me to create a custom timetable that perfectly suits their needs. My lessons are dynamic and interactive, incorporating practical exercises and insights into the language, ensuring a well-rounded and enjoyable learning experience.
For middle or high school students, I offer flexible scheduling to accommodate their school commitments, including summer classes for focused learning. My lessons through Zoom are interactive and structured, with clear goals for each session. I use engaging materials like games, dialogues, and thematic topics to keep students motivated while building their skills effectively. And I also encourage use of German learning Apps to supplement what they'll have already learned so that they don't forget anything along the way.
For listening and reading comprehension, I personalize materials to match each student’s interests. Drawing from resources like Hueber and passages I’ve written myself, I make learning relatable and engaging. My approach also incorporates cultural elements, such as German pop music, which I found particularly effective when learning the language myself as a music student. This method helps students connect with the language on a deeper level.
I provide tailored assessments to prepare students for Goethe-Institut exams, equipping them with the comprehensive skills needed to succeed the exams confidently.
