Professional native German online teacher/tutor + translations, proofreading, etc

From 76.65 C$ /h

Hello,

are you interested in learning German or improving it?

I am a German native with over 25 years of experience as a teacher/tutor of students of all levels and ages. Teaching languages is my passion and I love passing it on to motivated students.

In Germany I taught English, German and Maths to children and teenagers and later started teaching adults. I hold the CELTA certificate and held courses in language schools and companies in Costa Rica and Germany.

Since 2013 I have lived and worked in London as a teacher. I give 1-on-1 lessons as well as group sessions and courses in companies. I have worked for Google, Penguin Books, Sotherby's, a.o.

Whether you would like to improve your conversation skills, use of grammar, increase your vocabulary or are an absolute beginner, I am sure I can help you.

I also do translations, proofreading, transcriptions and other language services.

Even though Covid hasn't been very nice, it has taught us that learning and teaching online works fantastically. :)

My team also offer other languages: Spanish, French, Italian, Russian, English, Greek, Polish, Japanese, etc - feel free to ask. :)

I look forward to hearing from you.

Linda
