Tuition:
I offer exam-focussed German tuition for GCSE and A-Level students, as well as tuition for students completing their bachelor degrees and anyone looking to expand their skillset by learning German.

Seeing students grow in confidence as they achieve their goals is my motivation in tutoring. Part of this process involves tailoring the learning methods to the individual's strengths and needs. For instance, a dyslexic German learner will benefit greatly from the use of spoken and visual aids.

About me:
I started learning German in secondary school and went on to study Art History in German Literature in German at the Humboldt-University in Berlin, receiving a first class degree. For four years I lived, studied and worked in Germany, meaning that my vocabulary covers many mundane everyday situations, as well as academic study of art and literature.

I also offer tuition through Skype.

About Me
I'm calm and open-minded, especially when it comes to finding the right methods to help each student learn.

I've lived in four different countries, I also speak French, Russian and Swedish and I have a soft spot for dogs.

If you want to know anything else, you'll have to ask me in German!

Hi All,
thank you for checking out my course.

This class is open to students of all levels. Whether you are only starting to learn the wild-looking letters of the Cyrillic alphabet, or whether you are looking to practise your written and spoken Russian, I would be delighted to accompany you at any stage of your Russian-learning journey. For more advanced students, I would be happy to help you get to know one of the most defining aspects of the Russian language, namely its novels and poetry, which would be a great way to learn about the 'mysterious' Russian soul.

I believe that studying in three different countries have allowed me to try out and assess various approaches to education in general and teaching languages in particular - from the rigourous Russian system based on ensuring that the students will obtain exceptional spelling, grammar, syntax and punctuation skills, to the more relaxed yet more critical and analytical Western approach, focused on problem-solving and independent work.

You will get the benefit of a vast bank of techniques, methods and learning materials that I have developed and accumulated over the past year will be used in class to pique and maintain your interest. And since I was once a language student too, I would be able to share my personal tips and tricks with you to help you reach whatever goal you have set for yourself - be it being able to wow your friends and family by reciting a poem in the language of Dostoyevski, or impressing your future collegues with the thorough knowledge of Russian current affairs in their mother tongue!
