Personal Description:
CURRENTLY ONLY VERY LIMITED AVAILABILITY!
Hello my name is Angela,
I am a German native speaker and a qualified teacher who has recently relocated to the UK from Germany. I offer private tuition in German to people of all ages and all levels from beginner to proficiency. Would you like to learn German from scratch, brush up your school German or need the language for business purposes? You name it and I will tailor the lessons according to your needs and wishes.
Teaching Experience:
I used to be a Secondary school teacher of English and PE at a German grammar school for more than 20 years. I taught all age groups from 10 to 18 including exam preparation for German A-Levels in English. Additionally I ran an extracurricular class preparing German students for the Cambridge English Certificate exam. I have also got experience in teaching German as a foreign language to students who relocated to Germany from other countries.
I also used to work as a secondary supply teacher in the U.K.
I have been teaching German in the UK for five years now and enjoy passing on my knowledge of the language and the culture of my country to motivated learners.
Teaching Approach:
I am completely flexible with regard to lesson content and pace of learning. Everything will be tailored to your particular needs. My main aim is to make language learning enjoyable.
Having previously taught face to face, I’ve started teaching via zoom since the pandemic started and it’s been equally effective and enjoyable.

Reply from: Angela: Thank you so much for your kind words. It’s been a pleasure to accompany you on your journey and I wish you all the best for the future.
From Gina (/5): Angela was extremely helpful and thorough in her teaching style. I am especially appreciative of her help with my pronunciation, and was exactly the reason I wanted to choose a native German speaker.
Reply from: Angela: Thank you Gina, I enjoyed teaching you and wish you all the best.
From Kate (/5): Angela was supportive and kind - especially when I was struggling! She sent me extra materials to enrich her lessons.
**Contact Detail Removed**ted about all things German which made the lessons more interesting.
I would definitely recommend Angela as a German tutor.

Reply from: Angela: Thank you for your lovely reply, Kate. I really enjoyed working with you and I hope you’ll be able to pick up lessons again in the future.
From Alanna (/5): Angela is a great teacher. Prior to starting the lessons we had a trial session and discussed my objectives. Angela had also sent me an online test to complete.
We worked methodically through the lessons and practice but I also had space to shape lessons depending on what I wanted to cover. As I was preparing for the B2 exam, it was important to revise all the relevant topics. Angela selected good quality books for me to use and gave very good feedback on my completed work. I found her thorough and diligent, which is what I needed. Also, as she is German but lived in the UK for many years, she understands how to explain the grammar to a British person. This is important.
I highly recommend her. I had to pause my lessons for personal reasons but if I start my German up again soon, I will reach out to her to continue the lessons.

From Michael (/5): Angela taught my two teenage kids and was always well prepared ahead of each lesson. She utilised a variety of resources to keep lessons interesting, including textbooks, videos and apps.

Angela was flexible with regards to rescheduling lessons when we couldn’t make our usual day/time.
Would definitely recommend Angela as a highly competent and motivated German teacher.

From Harriet (/5): Angela is a wonderful tutor and I can't recommend her highly enough. If you're at all hesitant about reaching out then I can say you have no reason to be, she is warm and friendly and puts you immediately at ease. I have been taking weekly German lessons with Angela for three months now and she has been consistently supportive and thorough, sending additional materials between lessons and being open to reviewing any work I complete. Each lesson is not only a lesson in the language but also in history and culture; Angela's enthusiasm is clear and the lessons are always interesting as a result.
Reply from: Angela: Thank you so much Harriet. I really enjoyed teaching about you the language and culture of my country.
From James (/5): Angela is first class.
She’s very well organised, with well structured lessons and has the patience of a saint.
I started learning with Angela with no previous experience of German, so was a little anxious, but Angela’s calm and kind personality settled me after a very short time in lesson one.
I cannot recommend her highly enough.

From Olivia (/5): I found Angela to be an excellent teacher. I wanted to learn about the cases in German and Angela quickly established what level I was at, understood what I wanted to learn, and provided exercises and resources to help me improve. She was warm and friendly but got straight down to brass tacks at the beginning of the lesson and gave me exercises till the final minute. She also sent the odd link or video outside of lesson time for my interest. I would definitely reccomend Angela and I hope to have more lessons from her in the future.

From Ralph (/5): Angela is a fantastic teacher, very friendly and easy to get along with. I studied with Angela once a week for some months in preparation for my move to Berlin (My partner got a job offer here). I must say the content we covered has helped me a lot in my first few weeks here, it can be intimidating moving country but the lessons with Angela have given me the confidence to make my way about the city. Angela is flexible in her teaching methods and helped me both to learn the language and a bit about the culture and customs as well. I completely reccomend Angela to anyone considering learning a new language.
Reply from: Angela: Thank you, Ralph, I enjoyed teaching you and wish you all the best for your new life in Germany.
From Paige (/5):
From Fang (/5): very good, My son likes him very much!He even asked me could we prolong to two hours
Reply from: Angela: Hello Bella, thank you for your feedback. I enjoy working with your son, too. He’s a very bright little boy. Angela
From Adam (/5): I made contact with Angela about learning German and she was very helpful in providing me with plenty of information on what I need and what she can help me achieve. I am really looking forward to beginning my German lessons with Angela and excited to work with her.
Reply from: Angela: Thank you Adam, I’m looking forward to working with you too.
When we started, I was working in the UK and moving to Germany was a plan far in the distance. Today, I’m living in my own apartment in Germany, working a new job and have made many German-speaking friends along the way.
All of this would've been a hundred times more difficult without the support of Angela over the years. Angela is very knowledgable, friendly, patient and kind. She has also helped out outside of lessons when needed which is brilliant!
Overall, I would fully recommend Angela as a friendly casual language tutor :)
Vielen Dank!
