Native German online tutor for adult beginner level (A1)

Advert description
Hello and thank you for taking the time to explore my profile. My name is Andrea and I'm a German native living in the UK.

My lessons are aimed at adult students at beginner level (A1), e.g. expats or their partners/family members, those planning to travel to Germany or hobby learners. Classes are held online using Google Meet.

Having studied several languages myself, I understand the difficulties of mastering a new language. My background as a translator and interpreter provides a solid linguistic and cultural foundation, enabling me to guide you through any challenges along your learning journey. I'm able to explain complex grammar concepts in simple terms while always maintaining a focus on real life language application.

Before commencing lessons, we'll discuss your goals, motives and needs, so I can tailor classes accordingly and ensure you get the most out of them.

I take a structured yet relaxed approach with each lesson covering all the aspects of language learning: practicing conversational skills, expanding vocabulary and working through grammar topics step by step. There will also be homework, so you can make progress and further deepen your language skills. During lessons I always make notes of new vocabulary and grammar concepts in Google Docs which I'll share with you for future reference.

I look forward to embarking on this language adventure together!


EDUCATION & EXPERIENCE

I studied Interpreting and Translation for English and Russian at the University of Leipzig in Germany and was awarded the degree of Diplom-Dolmetscher. My thesis explored the topic of Cultural Aspects of British-German Business Communication.

I have since worked as a translator both freelance and in-house for an embassy and a leading language service provider for 10+ years.

For the past 2 years now I have been teaching German online as a private tutor.

Andrea is an excellent German Language Teacher. I was looking for an experienced Tutor who can work with a complete novice, myself, who had no prior knowledge of the German language. Before my first lesson, Andrea spoke with me about my reasons for learning German, the level I wanted to reach, the approach she took on training and recommended reading. I have a lesson each week of one hour. The session starts as a conversation to practice listening and speaking in German. This involves discussing activities whether they are relating to home life or work; both being very relevant in conversational dialogues. Following this there is a review of the homework from the previous week, and then moving onto the next section in the A1+ course book. When something is unclear, she takes the time to explain, including the cultural considerations between English and German. If you are looking for a German Tutor, then I would recommend Andrea.

Andrea is a very good teacher with effective methods of fostering learning and engaging the language student. Very importantly, she is personable and easy to get along with in our one-on-one sessions. Her price is also very reasonable compared to other options. I am an American ex-pat now living in Germany. I came here with 0 knowledge of the German language, but since Andrea became my teacher I have made great progress towards communicating with others daily, exploring German culture, and passing the necessary language tests required for immigration. I recommend at least one session a week to keep learning momentum going. Thanks Andrea!
