German remains a mystery unfathomable and incomprehensible to you? I propose varied methods adapted to the needs of each student.

I consider that teachers give enough forbidding homework not to add to it. All exercises are done during the course. The student leaves with a form / summary for each point of grammar performed.

My goal is to advance my students and especially, that it does not need me at the end :)

An arrangement in terms of availability is possible. (Full until March 2026)

Swiss-German is the first language spoken at work in Switzerland. Perfectly bilingual, I worked for more than 15 years in German-speaking Switzerland in managerial positions.

If you are brought to speak this language in your work, we can practice together by
- 30 min. (or 60 min.) on Skype, Telegram or Signal
- 60 min. at the student's home or other place of his choice *

To you to share with me your topics (sales, administrative questions, job interview), failing that I will bring topics adapted to your professional context.

Teacher with great experience and particularly motivated, I have always advanced my students and brought them successfully to their exams.

After completing a full education in Germany and advanced training in Swiss law in Geneva, I want to put my skills at the service of students or students of any level in Geneva.

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.

This course allows a fun learning and adapted to the level of the child.
It also allows support, refresher training or simply help with homework. In addition, the lesson touches different aspects of learning and stimulates writing, reading, speaking and creativity so that the lesson is as pleasant as possible for the child.

Hi future students! 👋

My name is Pauline, and I’m a native German speaker from Leipzig, Germany, with fluent English (American English) and Spanish, plus intermediate French.

If your goal is to speak German or English more confidently, naturally, and without stress, you’re in the right place. My lessons focus on real-life communication, not just textbooks and grammar drills.

What I offer:
- Conversational German or English to improve fluency & confidence
- Relaxed, motivating 1-on-1 sessions tailored to your goals
- Exam or interview preparation (A1–B1, travel, work, daily life)
- Personalized lessons based on your strengths and weak points

Whether you want to:
- speak more freely and sound natural
- prepare for an exam or interview
- improve pronunciation and listening
- refresh grammar through conversation

I’ll adapt the lessons entirely to you.

How my lessons work

We focus mainly on speaking and listening, supported by:

- vocabulary expansion
- pronunciation & accent training
- practical grammar (explained simply)
- reading & writing when useful

I provide engaging materials such as slides, images, short videos, music, games, and real-life texts - no boring worksheets.

Homework is optional and adapted to your schedule. If you’re busy, we keep it light and practical.

I’ve also been a student on Apprentus myself, so I know what makes lessons effective, enjoyable, and worth your time.

📩 Feel free to reach out with any questions or specific goals - I’m happy to help you start speaking with confidence!
