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.
If this is your situation, I can help.
My teaching is conversational, diagnostic, and logic-based.
I don’t overload you with rules, and we don’t “just talk.”
Instead, I identify the underlying patterns that are blocking your fluency and help you retrain how you think in German.
Every session has structure:
This approach works especially well for long-time learners who feel they “should already be fluent” but never break the plateau.
We will:
If you want to improve your spoken German with clarity, structure, and confidence, I look forward to working with you.

Katharina is a superb teacher. I imagine she is in high demand. She is sharp, engaging, thoughtful, and kind. She shows incredible patience even if I struggle to communicate my ideas. She keeps a running shared document with terms, phrases, and grammatical missteps that I can then access and learn from. Sign up with her. Your German will improve for sure. She's impressive.
