German classes in Boston: Try a class for free

Hi!

I’m a native German speaker and qualified coach with over 20 years of experience helping students of all ages and levels learn German. After living in the UK for 27 years, I’m now back in Germany, blending cultural insights from both worlds to help you master the language.

**Making German Fun and Accessible**

I’ve worked with students from around the globe, many whose first language isn’t English or German. I excel at breaking down German grammar into simple, easy-to-understand lessons. If you’re moving to a German-speaking country, I can guide you through those cultural quirks, making your transition smoother for you and your family.

**Personalized Lessons and Coaching**

Learning German should be fun and fit into your life seamlessly. As a qualified coach, I’ll show you not just how to learn German, but how to learn effectively. Whether you’re studying for exams, expanding your business contacts, or brushing up before a holiday, I’ll create a lesson plan that suits your goals. We’ll regularly review your progress together to stay on track.

**Helping You Succeed**

All of my students who’ve pursued German certification (from A1 to C1) have passed with flying colors. I’m here to support you, especially if you’re feeling stuck, nervous, or have had trouble learning in the past. My coaching approach builds confidence and helps you overcome challenges.

**Experience with Diverse Learners**

I’m experienced in working with neurodivergent students, tailoring my methods to ensure everyone can achieve their best.

**Flexible Rates**

My rates are a starting point, flexible to your specific needs and lesson goals. I aim to provide the best value based on what you want to achieve.

**Let’s Get Started**

If you’re ready to dive into learning German in a fun and supportive way, I’d love to hear from you. Together, we’ll create a plan that fits your goals perfectly and helps you get the most out of your language learning journey.

About me

I help intermediate learners break the speaking plateau by diagnosing and retraining the thinking patterns behind their German.

I work with B1–B2 learners who understand a lot of German but struggle to speak clearly and confidently.

Most of my students live in German-speaking countries and feel stuck: they hesitate, translate in their head, repeat the same mistakes, and don’t sound the way they want to — despite years of studying.

If this describes your situation, I can help.

My approach

My teaching is conversational, diagnostic, and logic-based.

We don’t overload you with rules, and we don’t “just talk and hope it gets better.”
Instead, I identify the underlying patterns that block your fluency and help you retrain how you think in German, directly in real conversation.

Every session has a clear structure:

• Clean up fossilized mistakes
• Uncover the logic behind German
• Build clear, natural sentences
• Practice real communication without panic or overthinking

This approach works especially well for long-time learners who feel they “should already be fluent” but never manage to break the plateau.

Who I work best with

• B1/B2 learners who understand a lot but can’t speak easily
• People who want clear explanations, not grammar overload
• Learners who need structure and precise correction
• Anyone who feels stuck after years of studying

I work best with learners who already have a foundation in German.
I do not offer lessons for complete beginners or children.

What to expect in a trial lesson

In a trial lesson, we will:

• Analyze your current spoken German
• Identify the specific patterns holding you back
• Define a clear direction for improving your speaking

If you want to improve your spoken German with clarity, structure, and confidence, I look forward to working with you.

Hi! I am Larissa, I am originally from Frankfurt, Germany. Right now, I am living in Baja California, Mexico. Since 2019, I've been teaching German as a foreign language via video chat and in face-to-face sessions. My students come from all over the world, from various age groups and have different skill levels. Depending on your skill level and requirements, we might start at the very beginning, dig into some grammar, do listening, reading and/or conversational exercises. I can also help you with different exam preparations or getting you ready to travel/move to a German speaking country. I like to work with free online sources, but am also happy to work with any material that my students bring to class. It is important to me to create a friendly and judge free atmosphere for my students where they feel comfortable just speaking and asking questions.

I am very passionate about traveling, exploring other countries and learning languages. Teaching is a great way for me to meet people from all over the world and learning about their cultures as well. 
 

Hi! I'm Tabea. I was born in Heidelberg (Germany) and I grew up in Spain, so I am bilingual in German and Spanish.

I started working as a German tutor in 2017, while I was still travelling a lot between Germany, Spain, Italy, Greece and the UK. I soon found out that I really enjoyed online teaching, since I had the chance to meet people from all over the world. I love learning things about other cultures and languages, as well as improving my teaching skills.

My lessons are quite flexible: I believe there is not only one method for learning a language. Students can be very different and even one person won't feel the same way every day. Therefore I take care to adapt each lesson to my students' needs. Do you feel you need a little help in conversation? Let's pick different topics and practise your speaking/listening abilities. Or are you stuck with grammar? Let's sit down and answer all your questions step by step.

German is a very rich language and sometimes it can be challenging, so there might be ups and downs on the road. But the harder you push yourself, the more rewarding it will be when you reach your goals!

If you are interested in taking German lessons, I'd love to meet you for a trial session!

Hi there!

Would you like to travel to Germany or feel more confident using German in daily life?

• individual lesson plan tailored to your interests and goals

I'm an experienced German teacher from Berlin who speaks German, English and Spanish fluently. 

My first teaching experience was 2015 in Perú, where I started to teach German as a foreign language to children in a social project. Since then I worked for many different kinds of language schools in Germany and Barcelona, but since 2020 I’m exclusively teaching online. 

By now, I have 10+ years of experience teaching German to students of different ages and levels from all over the world. I also teach Spanish and love it. 

Looking forward to meeting you!

Hi, my name is Sina and I am a native German speaker who is passionate about talking and teaching this language with people from different cultures all over the world! I am currently based in Kampala, Uganda, working in the creative arts sector as projects manager.

My experiences teaching German language go back to 2015, during my master studies, when I gave intense lessons to refugees helping them to reach basic vocabulary and grammar for everyday conversations using self-compiled material.

When moving to Uganda in 2019, I gave regular tutoring classes to German students' level A1, A2 and B1 at Goethe-Zentrum Kampala for six months.  I got insights into the language structures of the Goethe Insitut-system including exam preparation collecting professional teaching material.

To get students engaged with German language I usually work with interactive methods. We start with a comprehensive introduction to the respective topic through work sheets, powerpoint or visuals. Then we apply what has been learned through playful games, conversation exercises or gap texts. My methodology is: First process, then apply! Teaching one-to-one means I am all there for you, you decide which topic you want to work on, which challenges you want to master and how often we should repeat a lesson.

Book a trial lesson with me, let's get to know each other and set your goals from the very beginning. Let's build and level up your language skills and start the journey! Cheers

Are you looking for someone to simply talk to and practice German? My teaching style is engaging, patient and creative. I am practiced in teaching teenagers (16 and older) and adults. I have lived in the United States for 7 years. Therefore, I am experienced with different language environments and the challenges of studying another language.

My focus lies mainly on conversation. I help you to form sentences and to learn new words from all kinds of interesting topics. In so doing, I help you to become confident in German. Having fun while learning a new language is one important pillar to my experience. I give my best to create an atmosphere that helps you to engage in conversations with me and with others. Occasionally I use individually prepared worksheets as a support for our conversations.

I generally focus on the individual needs of my students. Be it preparing for a job interview, getting ready to live in a German speaking country, or learning German just for fun, I adjust my lessons to whatever you need so that you are able to speak, to read and to write in German. I am also happy to figure it out together in case you need help with the right approach.

So, in case I made you a little curious … Why do you not book a trial lesson with me and give it a try?

Hi there,

My name is Christine. I’m half German, half Belgian, and I have lived in Mexico for 19 years. I have been a teacher for 16 years and I have taught different subjects and languages, such as English, German, Spanish, world history, and geography.  My teaching approach depends on the student's level and interests. That being said, I believe that conversation is an important part of learning a language, and so I often focus on conversation or question-answer sessions in my classes. I love teaching and I always aim to make classes interesting.

I currently use the Netzwerk textbook and workbook by Klett (for A1 level), but I am open to working with other books as well. 

My Spanish level is excellent. I speak Latin American Spanish, but I know the grammar for Spanish from both Spain and Latin America.

Hope to meet you soon!

Hello my name is Maria, I’m from Germany and currently I live in Bolivia.

I myself was raised multilingual and I live in a foreign country. So, I know how hard and sometimes even frustrating it can be to learn a language. That’s why I would like to help you. If you are a beginner its best to start with some structure. So, vocabulary, grammar and the structure of a sentence in general. If you are already advanced, we can concentrate on pronunciation and conversation. Of course, always in connection with listening, reading and writing.

I already helped some students to prepare for their Goethe and Telc Test in the Levels A1 to C1.

My name is Sina, and I am a professional DaF (German as a Foreign Language) teacher, certified by the renowned Goethe-Institut. I hold both a bachelor's and a master's degree in Political Science. Passionate about languages and cultures, I enjoy helping students connect with the German language and discover its rich culture!
