Kenntniseinschätzung - Tutoren & Lehrer für Deutsch

I am a certified examiner for TestDaF and telc, and I specialize in test preparation (Goethe-Zertifikat, GDS, TestDaF, telc, ÖSD, Abitur, A-Level and AP German) and application training. 🇩🇪 I offer both general and intensive German language courses, and specific classes of grammar, conversation, writing, test preparation, proofreading, presentation/interview preparation, and application training. (Please find here below the details.) My focus is on intermediate and advanced German learners (B1-C2), who need a higher level of accuracy and fluency in terms of exposition, argumentation and self-expression. 🇦🇹 I have been teaching German at one of the most prestigious language schools in Berlin for over six years. I hold a Magister (German equivalent to the master's degree) in Germanistics (German language, literature, and history) from Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin (2001), and a teaching certificate of German as a foreign language from Goethe-Institut München (2010). Before becoming a language teacher, I was a journalist for six years at a local newspaper in Potsdam. Currently, I am working on my bachelor's degree in psychology at Fernuniversität in Hagen. 🇨🇭 It would be a great honor and pleasure for me to become a part of your language and/or career project(s). I look forward to working together with you, and establishing a collaborative relationship that would inspire and motivate both of us! 🇱🇺 WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT ● Proficiency evaluation ● Lessons at your own individual needs and learning style ● Various learning materials ● Conversation oriented lessons ● Error correction of your written texts ● 40 available time-slots each week ● Unlimited correspondence between lessons 🇱🇮 PROFESSIONAL COURSES ● Testvorbereitung (Goethe-Zertifikat, GDS, TestDaF, telc, ÖSD, etc.) Language examinations are not only about the language itself. It is therefore crucial for us to learn how the exam is designed, what types of knowledge are tested, and by what criteria you are judged. To ace the exam, we have to feed the examiners exactly what they expect to read and hear from you. ● Grammatikkurs The Four Horsemen of German grammar are grammatical gender, adjective declension, verbs with prepositions, and subordinate clauses. It is not difficult to learn the rules and exceptions, but rather to apply them. This course aims to integrate the grammar into daily conversations by automatizing the process. ● Konversationskurs Generally speaking, words that we can comprehend and respond to (receptive vocabulary) are up to ten times more than the ones that we can express and speak out (productive vocabulary). But there are always reasons why we are not able to express ourselves in an efficient, effective, and well-mannered way. This course targets at the transition from receptive vocabulary to productive vocabulary. Together, we will diagnose the problem(s), look for solutions, and further work on the four domains of speaking: pronunciation, fluency, the command and range of vocabulary, and grammatical errors. ● Schreibkurs What should I think about before writing an essay? How to present the material and organize my arguments/counter-arguments accordingly? Which kind of text structure should I apply? This course guides you through the process of producing a German text. ● Deutsch für den Beruf Business German courses for engineers, medical staff, journalists, and teachers. ● Deutschsprachige Literatur This course leads you to native-like proficiency in German through intensive reading. We will select and read together certain literary, philosophical, theological, and/or historical texts that you are interested in. Each lesson begins with a detailed analysis of the text, and ends up with a free discussion of the relevant topic on the basis of close reading. You will also be asked to present and write a summary of the text. ● Bewerbungstraining / Präsentationsvorbereitung Persuasion is an art. This course is about how to introduce yourself, present your insights & ideas, and market your expertise & experience in German. It helps you to prepare for your job interview, thesis defense, and conference presentation. The style of your presentation is determined by its subject and audience. Together, we will go through your résumé, motivation letter, and/or speech draft, and improve your interview/presentation performance.

I promise, you will progress with me, not because I am a qualified TELC Examiner with over 6 years of teaching experience , but because of the realistic teaching approach based on authentic situations. I taught more than 4000 hours not including the hours taught on Verbling. Teaching is my life and I love it. I know how to teach a language and most of all what is important for you to learn. I also aim to know as many languages as possible and try to become a Polyglot. I speak 6 languages so far. I have been working with languages on a daily basis in numerous roles – from teaching and tourism to customer service to and translation guiding people through the jungle and working with the top economists in the world. I teach from beginners to advanced (A1-C2). I have been teaching online for many years, even before it was a thing and I am enjoying it a lot since then. As we have a limited amount of time I will make sure you will learn important things, depending on the wishes you have. I adapt to the needs of my students and correct their mistakes lot as we go.
