Hallo everyone, I'm Maria, and I am a passionate German teacher 🙂 I "fell in love" with this language at the age of 16 and mastered my knowledge and skills continuously since then so I can truly call German my second native language. I started teaching in language school in 2009 and have taught all possible levels since then (from complete beginners to very proficient). Based on my teaching experience and interaction with students from all over the world I complied my own "customised" methodology, which includes functional grammar (how to use it for written/oral communication), cluster vocabulary learning, authentic language (not only from the textbooks ;-))) And moreover I always want my students to have fun during the lessons, so we'll normally do a lot of activities (like listening, reading, speaking and playing learning games) during the class. So once you are interested in studying German I would be happy to be your tutor and help you to "discover" this amazing language! Cheers, Maria
