    German for beginners (for English and Polish speakers)

    I conduct classes in German from scratch. The course at my place is dedicated to people who either start their adventure with German or have already studied basic issues, but for some reasons they stopped learning at an early stage and want to return to it. Do not worry, we will refresh information and go further. I also invite students who need help at A1-B1 level.

    Please contact me regarding the available hours before booking, as I have not edited the calendar correctly yet.

    About Me

    I'm Shane, 24. I come from Poland, I have lived in Berlin for a while where I was also teaching and now, I live in the capital city of Poland - Warsaw. I study MA on SGH Warsaw School of Economics, where my major is exclusively lectured in English. Meanwhile, I focus on doing various jobs and learning other languages. I am bilingual, I have been learning English since I was four years old and today it is the most important language for me and the one I use almost all the time. I have studied performing arts in Poland and I do some stage activities as a hobby. My main job in Poland and Germany has been teaching English as a freelancer. I have worked as a translator and copywriter as well. I also have had some jobs not connected with languages like shop assistant or secretary although it only made me realize that my passion and dream job for now is the one strictly connected with foreign languages. Due to that, I decided to make my profile here and hopefully look for new students in Warsaw. If you share my huge interest to languages, I can offer you to join me and have fun with learning English or Polish. I am waiting for you!
    Shane.

    Education

    University of Lower Silesia, Wroclaw, major: Design Now: Modern Arts, specialization: performing arts and film, media, new technologies, bachelor degree (three years)

    Experience / Qualifications

    Five years of experience on teaching English, also for groups and at local language school, from children age 3 to elders, basic lessons and also conversations, visible effects
    In language learning, passion is the most important thing. It is thanks to her that you can build a persistent foundation that induces you to work, and in time turns your learning into mere pleasure. I know what I'm saying because I started learning my first foreign language - English at the age of four. This gesture on the part of my parents gave me a constant love of foreign languages ​​- now I also speak German, Spanish, and besides extending skills in their field, I also learn Chinese and Hebrew. Why? The life situation has not forced me to, I always just wanted to. And this is also my goal in the work of an English teacher, which I have been doing for six years. I try to inspire people of all ages. Show that a seemingly difficult school test from past tense, or an exam that creates opportunities for better pay at work are not only within your reach, but can also make you find a new passion. Who knows, maybe someday you will also be able to feel the satisfaction of learning someone from your favorite textbook from years ago? :) It was Wrocław, it was Berlin, and now, again I offer lessons full time in Wroclaw, more specifically in Rynek / on Dworzec Glowny. I really like the form that I've been practicing in Berlin, i.e. learning at a cafe in the city, but if you prefer another option, let me know. I advise and help you choose the appropriate textbooks, but if you prefer to only process materials from school + additional exercises to print it will not be a problem.
    I am native Polish speaker. I live in Wroclaw, Poland. I have five years experience on teaching English as a foreign language (taught in Polish). I offer Polish lessons on every level, for people every age. Lessons at the cafe or optionally at student's place. Taught in English so you need to have at least B2 English level. Individual approach, interesting methods. Also, an option to have lessons based only on conversations. First, we will have some casual talk and then, I will provide with a list of subjects to choose and we will then discuss them. Optionally, you can come for conversations with second person.

    Kevin
    Polyglot specialist with 9 years of experience. German in speed mode. Level A1 to C2. No school teaching.
    I offer you a German course that is not like the others. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you travel back and forth by train every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Memorise the timetable. 2) Realise that the train comes every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in textbooks and in normal lessons, the first approach is used - in the course I am offering you, it is the second approach because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both pupils and adults who want to learn the German language without time-consuming detours through the madness of fruitless school methods. Learning is easy, but unlearning things that have become bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, with my customised lessons you will greatly accelerate the learning process while having a positive attitude. I offer German lessons for individuals or groups (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive science and historical linguistics in particular. My modular programme can be adapted on a case-by-case basis. The converging point of these modules is your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life. What will not be covered in the course: learning lists of verbs; learning lists of nouns with articles; learning words with their translations; flashcards; doing school exercises; following the syllabus of a booklet; imposing the English grammar on the German language. What is particularly important to me: to motivate my student and to give him a learning rhythm; to encourage his creativity; to befriend him with the language; the letters and their sounds; to strengthen the memory by training the phonological loop; to teach blueprints instead of memorising sentences; to explain how the language works in order to make my student independent as quickly as possible; to eliminate common preconceptions, such as that 'der' would mean masculine and 'die' feminine, that the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, that verbs would be irregular, that declension would be random and therefore would have to be learnt with each verb...; to put practice at the centre and only deal with grammar where necessary. A first lesson will give you a sound idea of my pedagogy.

    Elise
    Private German lessons by qualified academic
    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. :)
