Native Estonian speaker with years of teaching experience gives Estonian lessons for all levels and ages

Tere!
I’m a native Estonian speaker, language teacher, and violinist currently studying at a university in Germany. Languages and music are my two biggest passions, and I believe that learning a language should be a natural and enjoyable process.
I have years of experience in language teaching and speak fluent English and German in addition to Estonian. My teaching approach is highly personalized – I adapt each lesson to suit your individual needs, ensuring that learning is both effective and engaging. I integrate vocabulary, grammar, speaking, and listening into every session, so you can immediately put theory into practice.
For me, the most important thing is that you feel confident using the language from the very beginning—without the fear of making mistakes. My goal is to support you in reaching your personal language-learning milestones in a way that feels motivating and rewarding.
My Estonian lessons are designed for learners of all levels and ages. Whether you're starting from scratch or looking to refine your skills, I will tailor the lessons to match your goals and interests.

✔ Focus on real-life communication – Improve your conversation skills, expand vocabulary, and understand grammar in a practical way.
✔ Supportive and flexible learning – Lessons are structured yet adaptable to your pace and learning style.
✔ Confidence-building approach – No fear of mistakes; they’re part of the process!

About Me

Music has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Nine years ago I moved to Germany to continue my music studies there. At the moment I am doing a bachelor of music in violin and also working as a freelance violinist.
Besides music, learning languages is another passion of mine. Kind, patient and skillful teachers in both areas have greatly helped me in my life and I would love to also be that for others.

My daughter had a violin lesson with Rebekka. She enjoyed her lesson and looks forward to her next one.
Very nice first lesson. The teacher has the knowledge and capabilities to explain in simple terms.
Great first lesson! Looking forward to more
Rebecca was our kids first online German teacher. She easily built trust with our shy 9-year-old, managed to keep her interested in the lessons by caring about what our daughter liked and was flexible and supportive with our specific study goals. We would like to have some offline lessons once we are in the same town :)
My son really had a great time with Rebekka. She is very experienced and fun and engaging. From the first minute to the end! Really recommend her.
Hello! My name is Rebekka. I have been playing the violin for over 20 years and am currently pursuing my master’s degree at the University of Music Würzburg. Ear training has always been one of my favorite subjects, and I am excited to share my knowledge and passion with you! In my lessons, I offer a variety of methods to help you train your listening skills effectively. The lessons are tailored to your individual needs and interests so that you can get the most out of them. Possible topics include:
 🎵 Ear training exercises
 🎵 Sight-singing
 🎵 Improving your sense of rhythm
 🎵 Singing and recognizing intervals & scales
 🎵 ... and much more! Whether you're a beginner or advanced, young or old – everyone is welcome! Feel free to reach out, and let’s develop your musical skills together.
Guten Tag! The German language can be a lot of fun when you know how to speak it but a bit of a head ache when you are still struggling to put together the words.. I have lived in Germany for 9 years, attended the Goethe Institut, graduated from a German high school with a GPA of 1,5 and am currently studying at university in the German language. Having been through the process of learning German from 0, I know the joys and annoyances that are part of this journey and would love to help you. Whether you are a complete beginner or already more advanced, wanting to pick up some phrases for your next trip to Germany or in need of tutoring to get the best grades in your German classes at school, feel free to contact me. In my classes we would work on speaking, listening and grammar exercises, tailoring the lessons to suit your personal needs and preferences (and of course teaching you some German jokes...). I look forward to hearing from you! Liebe Grüße Rebekka
Whether you have never held a violin in your hands or are an advanced player, all are welcome to contact me! I have played the violin for over 20 years and am currently doing a master ́s of music in violin. Music is my passion, I have been teaching violin for 5 years, in music schools as well as privately from the ages of 7 to 60. My aim in teaching is to enable the student to experience the beauty, richness and also the fun side of music, by helping to develop the technical skills needed to express oneself on the violin. I find it very important to take into account the personal goals and wishes of the student and to create an atmosphere of encouragement, creativity and mutual understanding. No matter if you are interested in learning to play your favourite tunes just for fun or want to build up strong, solid technique and play demanding repertoire, I would be happy to work with you.The world of music is incredibly rich and I would love to help you on the exciting journey of discovering it. I believe it important to have variety in the process of learning and to help the student to develop good practising habits. For those interested, I can also gladly include some music theory/music history knowledge in the lessons, to understand the pieces on a more profound level. The lessons can be taught in either Estonian, English, German or Spanish.

Private Estonian tutoring for levels Beginner and Intermediate
MY LESSONS: Learning Estonian can be quite hard on your own or in a group. As a native speaker, I can help you become fluent in Estonian by mostly practicing conversation and pronunciation. I also help with other aspects of language learning, like writing, reading, and listening. Sometimes I help with Harno exam preparations as well. I tend to work with a maximum of two students at once, so couples, friends, and family members are welcome to have the lesson together. We will be using English as a base language in our lesson. MY TEACHING STYLE: - Anxiety and perfection-free space - mistakes are welcome! - You choose the time, the place, and the learning style - Every student is unique and has their own pace - I will provide the study materials for you - Flexibility in learning - No grading system REQUIREMENTS FOR ONLINE LESSONS: - Having a good Wi-Fi connection - Having a laptop or a tablet with a camera REQUIREMENTS FOR HOME LESSONS: - Living within 30 minutes walking distance from my location - Having a laptop for exercises Kas alustame? (Shall we start?)

Mastering Estonian: A Beginner's Guide to Fluent Communication
Hi there! I’m an Estonian language teacher with a passion for making learning engaging and effective. I specialize in creating interactive lessons that are tailored to the needs of each student, ensuring that the material is relevant and enjoyable. I believe in adapting my teaching style to match your learning pace, helping you gain confidence and improve your skills. I’ve taught languages in various countries, including China and Peru, which has given me the experience to work with students from different backgrounds and adapt to different learning needs. With a background in language studies from the University of Edinburgh, Tallinn University, and the University of Tübingen, I am well-versed in language acquisition, and I enjoy sharing my knowledge with others.

Let's make learning enjoyable and effective as we work towards your language goals.

Estonian language lessons and courses with Martin
I am a Software Engineer, teacher and tutor. I graduated from Tallinn English College in 2016 and Tallinn French Lyceum in 2019, and I received my bachelor's degree in software development from Tallinn University of Technology in 2022. I am currently pursuing a master's degree in software development. I work daily as a tutor and senior advisor in my companies. I have also been teaching for 5 years. I help students prepare for state exams in Estonian (levels A1-C1) and math (both narrow and broad curriculums). I can always share tricks and exercises with students in class. I have clients age 5-65. I conduct lessons and meetings on Google Meet, during which I share my screen with the student, and together we write a Google Docs file with exercises, speak and write essays. This file, containing formulas and rules, stays with the student. At the end of the lesson, I assign homework to the student, and we review it in the next lesson. I have the same system applied in programming. I always choose topics that interest the student to make it easier for them to learn rules or formulas. I can also visit the student in person. Additionally, I help with writing research papers and final theses, ranging from elementary school research papers to master's theses.

Estonian for any age and purpose: for exams, conversational, for work
Hello! You will learn to understand Estonian speech, make sentences, speak on different topics, learn the vocabulary you need for your work, learn grammar rules and apply them easily. I am teaching using progressive communication method, where you learn the whole phrase, not word by word. This way it is easier to remember grammar and make grammatically correct sentences.

I can help you expand your vocabulary, learn grammar and spelling, overcome language barrier and work on your pronunciation, which is pretty important if you ask me :) I have one and a half year of tutoring experience with different age groups. During this time I have developed my own teaching system by paying attention to the most effective methods and practices.
