My approach is practical, structured and learner-focused. I combine speaking, listening and real-life communication so students can use German confidently from the first lesson. I adapt materials to each learner’s goals, whether for work, travel, diplomacy or everyday use. My lessons are clear, friendly and supportive, with a strong focus on progress and communication.
I am flexible and can easily adapt to my students’ schedules.
