German for Expats in Switzerland: Conversation, Grammar & Confidence (A1–C1)

98.65 C$ /h

Goal-focused German lessons for real life in Switzerland (online).

Whether you’re learning German for work, daily life or integration, I’ll help you build confidence step by step: with a clear structure, lots of speaking practice and explanations that make grammar feel logical.

How lessons work:

- In our first session, we define your goals and assess your level (A1–C1).
- Each lesson combines speaking + listening + targeted grammar + vocabulary (always tailored to your needs).
- You get personalized materials, practical homework (optional), and clear feedback so you see progress quickly.

What we can focus on:

- Everyday Swiss situations (appointments, shopping, small talk, phone calls)
- Workplace German (emails, meetings, presentations, negotiation basics)
- Pronunciation & “speaking flow”
- Writing support and corrections
- Exam preparation (if needed)

Lessons are online (Zoom/Teams/Google Meet). Tell me your goal and timeframe, and I’ll propose a simple plan.

Clarity & Self-Leadership Mentoring: Reflective Conversations for Growth

109.61 C$ /h

A calm, structured space to think clearly and move forward.

These sessions are for people who want honest reflection, better self-leadership, and practical next steps without overthinking or pressure.

What we can work on:

- Clarity on goals, priorities, and “what matters most”
- Decision-making (when you feel stuck or torn between options)
- Building confidence & self-trust
- Habits, routines, and simple accountability systems
- Communication: boundaries, difficult conversations, authenticity
- Social/dating dynamics, presence, and “showing up” with more ease
- Transitions (new job, new city, study stress, identity shifts)

How sessions work:

- Short check-in + define the focus for the session
- I listen closely, reflect back patterns and ask targeted questions
- We turn insights into one clear action plan (small, doable steps)
- Optional follow-up notes / accountability for the next session

Important note:
This is coaching/mentoring, not psychotherapy. If you’re dealing with severe anxiety, depression, trauma or a crisis, I strongly recommend working with a licensed professional.

University graduate in German language and literature (Master of Letters in German with specialization in medieval languages and literature) with a solid experience, gives private German lessons for all levels.
My lessons are adapted according to the needs of the student. They aim to consolidate concepts, fill gaps, prepare for exams (maturity, compulsory school leaving certificates, entrance exams to gymnasiums and universities, Goethe Zertifikat up to B2). Opportunity to learn the language.

For school supports:

This is above all long-term work, which implies on my part taking the time to "learn how to learn" in an effective manner: every exercise is explained in detail, which can make its execution easier. slower. Quality takes priority over quantity in order to obtain optimal results over time.
Students bring their own course materials (notebooks, books, audio CDs, dictionaries, assessments, etc.).
Another important point: in order for my help to be beneficial, it is necessary that the student provides regular personal work between lessons. This essentially involves rereading your notes, repeating exercises similar to those carried out together or even moving forward in learning vocabulary.

For conversation classes:

The topics are based on interests and/or specific needs for exam preparation. I attach particular importance to pronunciation, fluency and vocabulary. I usually correct at the end of a conversation exercise with detailed feedback, in order to avoid any blockages and to work on fluency. Depending on the level of the students and/or their expectations (exam preparations/assessments/desire for improvement for example), I work on the choice of appropriate words, grammatical accuracy, the ability to formulate more or less complex sentences.

For exam preparations:

The courses offer to acquire solid tools to learn to write, to comment on literary texts and a methodology to work on oral comprehension. The student must bring their own exam preparation brochure, available in all bookstores. For Goethe Institute model exams, the exam books from Cornlesen are particularly suitable. The other alternative would be to download and print before the start of the course a copy of the Goethe Institute exam available on the institute's website.

For the oral comprehension:

Work from audio-visual viewings downloaded from the Deutsche Welle site, which offer various recordings adapted to all levels, with a very concrete approach. In the long term, the student acquires ease not only in oral comprehension, but also enriches his basic vocabulary through exercises. I also work on the Goethe Institut oral tests to familiarize myself with speaking.

For the work of the written expression:

I begin by explaining in the first lesson some methodological tools to acquire writing skills. The student has the opportunity to start writing during the course or do a writing exercise on duty and give it to me to correct (send by email or at the beginning of the next lesson). The corrections are explained in detail. In addition, at the time of booking, the student can send me a draft copy before the lesson so that I can meet his needs even more quickly.

Apart from my presence with the student, every lesson involves preparation time before and after the lesson, particularly for the work that I correct. My goal being to design an individualized course, I take the time necessary to write detailed comments on corrected work or advice to ensure maximum success for everyone.
In addition, each student can contact me at any time outside of class by email if necessary.

Feel free to contact me for more information. :)

I offer you a new learning experience.

The focus is on practical application and theory is only introduced where intuition reaches its limits.

Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, my tailor-made lessons will accelerate your language acquisition in a positive learning environment.

You can book a complete course with regular sessions or individual lessons to overcome a specific problem, such as pronunciation or a particular point in grammar.

Learning a foreign language is not a linear process that consists of memorising a list of words, and speaking a foreign language is not an oral translation exercise.

There are two types of approaches to acquiring knowledge:

When asked what year follows 1999, you can immediately answer 2000 without having to think for a long time and, above all, without having memorised each number individually, starting with 1, 2, 3 ... You know that numbers are formed according to a certain pattern. With only ten digits, you can form an infinite number of numbers and always know which number comes next.

When it comes to the alphabet, words and sentences, it's more or less the same, but school pedagogy, school textbooks and regular lessons still follow the rote learning approach. In the lessons I propose, you will learn to use patterns because this is more efficient and faster.

Learning is easy, but unlearning bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible.

My offer is aimed at both young people and adults who want to learn German or improve their knowledge without wasting time on nonsensical school methods.

I offer individual or group lessons for German. The methods are based on cognitive science and, in particular, comparative linguistics. My flexible programme can be tailored to your individual needs. The programme focuses on your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life.

What is particularly important to me:

motivating my students and help them establish a learning rhythm;
encouraging their creativity;
helping them become more familiar with the language;
teaching them the letters and their sounds;
strengthening their memory by training their phonological loop;
teaching sentence building plans instead of memorising sentences;
explaining how language works so that my students can become independent as quickly as possible.

I look forward to meeting you.

Hello dear student,

My name is Hiba, I worked for years as a German translator, then I worked at a language school in Hamburg. There, I gained valuable experience in the methodology of teaching foreign languages to children and adults.
According to my students, learning languages with me is a lot of fun and it makes me very happy because I help my students stay motivated until they reach their goal by simply creating an individual learning program for each student, tailored to their language skills and needs.
So far I have met and worked with wonderful students (of different ages) from all over the world.
My students are achieving excellent results, which makes me very happy and proud!
Students often tell me that they have no knowledge of German or that they have already forgotten what they have learned or that they have to take a language test soon and if I can help them and my answer is: Yes, of course.
I work at your pace and according to your needs. Basically, the course covered several areas such as reading, comprehension, and pronunciation.
Because I love my job, I support my students via WhatsApp outside of working hours, so I'm available anytime if you have any questions or need help. So don't hesitate to contact me!

If you need more information, please write to me and I will be happy to answer your questions.
I look forward to having you on my team soon because you deserve the best.
See you

I am a native Urdu speaker and love this polite and cultured language. Those students who wish to speak Urdu for the sake of personal enjoyment and fulfillment – or even to converse with their spouses, friends, and family – will learn with me to speak the language with a fine neutral accent. I will provide several real-life scenarios and encourage students to hold hesitation-free conversations with a pleasant accent. At the end of successfully finishing this course, the student will be able to converse in Urdu without hesitation.
Urdu is a beautiful language that is spoken by more than 200 million people worldwide in countries like Pakistan, India, Afghanistan, the United Arab Emirates, and other parts of the world. Urdu started developing in North India around Delhi in the 12th century. It was based on the language spoken in the area around Delhi and was heavily influenced by Arabic and Persian as well as Turkish.
Urdu originates from Hindi, sometimes referred to as the 'sister' language of Urdu due to its grammatical basis. However, Hindi is written in 'Devanagari', a script similar to Sanskrit, and its vocabulary is influenced more by Sanskrit than by Persian and Arabic.

The German language is currently in high demand in the labor market, and Germany accepts scholarships for study or work, so learning the German language has become necessary for anyone who wants to study or work at an advanced level.
The German language is not difficult, but it requires effort, regularity, and follow-up with the teacher, as well as making sure to attend classes with concentration.

For adults, I offer online "Free Talk" classes. These classes are very popular and are ok for any age. I currently have a group class of people aged 60s to 80s. If you want to talk about daily life, news, hobbies, traveling, etc. and enjoy speaking English, then this is a good class to do it. Usually a 1-hour class is best as it gives plenty of time. If a shorter, or longer, class is better for you I can do that too. Just ask :)
