    German for beginners (for English and Polish speakers)

    I conduct classes in German from scratch. The course at my place is dedicated to people who either start their adventure with German or have already studied basic issues, but for some reasons they stopped learning at an early stage and want to return to it. Do not worry, we will refresh information and go further. I also invite students who need help at A1-B1 level.

    Please contact me regarding the available hours before booking, as I have not edited the calendar correctly yet.

    About Me

    I'm Shane, 24. I come from Poland, I have lived in Berlin for a while where I was also teaching and now, I live in the capital city of Poland - Warsaw. I study MA on SGH Warsaw School of Economics, where my major is exclusively lectured in English. Meanwhile, I focus on doing various jobs and learning other languages. I am bilingual, I have been learning English since I was four years old and today it is the most important language for me and the one I use almost all the time. I have studied performing arts in Poland and I do some stage activities as a hobby. My main job in Poland and Germany has been teaching English as a freelancer. I have worked as a translator and copywriter as well. I also have had some jobs not connected with languages like shop assistant or secretary although it only made me realize that my passion and dream job for now is the one strictly connected with foreign languages. Due to that, I decided to make my profile here and hopefully look for new students in Warsaw. If you share my huge interest to languages, I can offer you to join me and have fun with learning English or Polish. I am waiting for you!
    Shane.

    Education

    University of Lower Silesia, Wroclaw, major: Design Now: Modern Arts, specialization: performing arts and film, media, new technologies, bachelor degree (three years)

    Experience / Qualifications

    Five years of experience on teaching English, also for groups and at local language school, from children age 3 to elders, basic lessons and also conversations, visible effects
    In language learning, passion is the most important thing. It is thanks to her that you can build a persistent foundation that induces you to work, and in time turns your learning into mere pleasure. I know what I'm saying because I started learning my first foreign language - English at the age of four. This gesture on the part of my parents gave me a constant love of foreign languages ​​- now I also speak German, Spanish, and besides extending skills in their field, I also learn Chinese and Hebrew. Why? The life situation has not forced me to, I always just wanted to. And this is also my goal in the work of an English teacher, which I have been doing for six years. I try to inspire people of all ages. Show that a seemingly difficult school test from past tense, or an exam that creates opportunities for better pay at work are not only within your reach, but can also make you find a new passion. Who knows, maybe someday you will also be able to feel the satisfaction of learning someone from your favorite textbook from years ago? :) It was Wrocław, it was Berlin, and now, again I offer lessons full time in Wroclaw, more specifically in Rynek / on Dworzec Glowny. I really like the form that I've been practicing in Berlin, i.e. learning at a cafe in the city, but if you prefer another option, let me know. I advise and help you choose the appropriate textbooks, but if you prefer to only process materials from school + additional exercises to print it will not be a problem.
    I am native Polish speaker. I live in Wroclaw, Poland. I have five years experience on teaching English as a foreign language (taught in Polish). I offer Polish lessons on every level, for people every age. Lessons at the cafe or optionally at student's place. Taught in English so you need to have at least B2 English level. Individual approach, interesting methods. Also, an option to have lessons based only on conversations. First, we will have some casual talk and then, I will provide with a list of subjects to choose and we will then discuss them. Optionally, you can come for conversations with second person.

    Kevin
    Polyglot specialist with 9 years of experience. German in speed mode. Level A1 to C2. No school teaching.
    I offer you a German course that is not like the others. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you travel back and forth by train every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Memorise the timetable. 2) Realise that the train comes every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in textbooks and in normal lessons, the first approach is used - in the course I am offering you, it is the second approach because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both pupils and adults who want to learn the German language without time-consuming detours through the madness of fruitless school methods. Learning is easy, but unlearning things that have become bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, with my customised lessons you will greatly accelerate the learning process while having a positive attitude. I offer German lessons for individuals or groups (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive science and historical linguistics in particular. My modular programme can be adapted on a case-by-case basis. The converging point of these modules is your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life. What will not be covered in the course: learning lists of verbs; learning lists of nouns with articles; learning words with their translations; flashcards; doing school exercises; following the syllabus of a booklet; imposing the English grammar on the German language. What is particularly important to me: to motivate my student and to give him a learning rhythm; to encourage his creativity; to befriend him with the language; the letters and their sounds; to strengthen the memory by training the phonological loop; to teach blueprints instead of memorising sentences; to explain how the language works in order to make my student independent as quickly as possible; to eliminate common preconceptions, such as that 'der' would mean masculine and 'die' feminine, that the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, that verbs would be irregular, that declension would be random and therefore would have to be learnt with each verb...; to put practice at the centre and only deal with grammar where necessary. A first lesson will give you a sound idea of my pedagogy.

    Help with German homework after school (all levels)
    Hello, I'm here to help with your German homework! I was educated in the German language from the age of 6 until the end of high school. I later decided to get a certificate from the Goethe Institute to be able to tutor in German. I have years of experience in tutoring French and even English. On occasions the parents of my French students asked me to help them with their German homework, so I naturally decided to offer this as a separate option on Apprentus.

    German 🇩🇪 ✨ differently for young and old 🤗 with compunction, humor and magic ✨
    Möchten Sie Deutsch lernen? If you've always dreamed of saying “Guten Tag” with a mischievous smile, these courses are the perfect opportunity for you to dive into the fascinating world of the German language! 🇩🇪 I can provide academic support for children, as well as individual lessons for professionals or anyone else interested. In Besançon or by video. Usually, I teach a multitude of subjects in alternation, putting priority on the student's wishes. Together we will break through the tangled maze of German grammar brilliantly. 🇩🇪 And to brighten up the lessons, I have a lot of tracks in my repertoire such as humorous poems by J. Ringelnatz or songs. Also, I always find it pleasant to support beginners in their first steps. 🤗📚 My arsenal? An online portal with links and materials that I personalize for each student and a mind map at the beginning to present all the themes I propose. I will send you on request. Some exercises I did myself, often with the help of AI. I can recommend some nifty software and give you incentives so that you can continue learning very effectively yourself. And inspire you to learn the long works of Goethe and Schiller with new vivacity. 💡 My particular passion is German compound words, a real linguistic puzzle! How would you translate Handschuh = "shoe of the hands", Zebrastreifen = "zebra strips", Dachboden = "roof floor" or Friedhof = "court of peace. And for the advances, what is it about with the " Aufmerksamkeitsdefizit-Hyperaktivitätssyndrom"? (I will send you answers on request (; ) 🤓🇩🇪 For the curious, what concerns your teacher: Born in Northern Germany and since 2020 in Besançon. Graduate in geography. I have already taught German in various projects in Togo and Kyrgyzstan. I have already taught German in various projects in Togo and Kyrgyzstan. In Besançon, I worked as a German teacher for the "Maison Blanche Formation", a language school for professionals and for the Scops association. 🌍👨‍🏫 The lessons can take place in my apartment in the city center of Besançon, at the student's home, against a possible travel expense depending on the distance or by video. And surprise, I also provide academic support in mathematics, English or multi-subjects. 🎓💻🗣️ So, ready for an extraordinary linguistic adventure? Johannes, the spell master is waiting for you! Prost (that's "cheers" in German) and see you soon! 🌈👋 Johannes

    German Classes. Customised to individual needs. Mulitlingual Tutor certified by Cambridge University.
    It is important that a language is lived, not just learned. This is the advantage of personalized German lessons with a private tutor. I have a broad knowledge base in many language backgrounds. Regardless of the language, I think learning is easiest when respecting your unique background and motivations, as well as the intricacies of your mother tongue. Above all, focusing on the commonalities rather than the differences. I believe in a personal approach. This means I will sit down with you and figure out what your goals are, your strengths, and your resources, either in person or via online tutoring. I can: - provide stand-alone lessons with course material tailored to you - support courses by language schools like benedict, inlingua, ils, dialogica... - target practice for exams & certifications like fide, Goethe-Zertifikat, telc, SDS... I have a master’s degree in German Studies, and I am certified by the University of Cambridge. Besides extensive work as a translator, I also have experience tutoring foreign university students, giving courses to expat families as well as tutoring refugees, and even teaching my Czech girlfriend. Not just in English and German, but also specifically working to understand the Swiss dialects.
