Online DSH test preparation courses - 89 teachers found

I am a certified TestDaF and telc examiner. I specialise in test preparation. I offer both general and intensive German language courses, and... specific classes of grammar, conversation, writing, test preparation and interview preparation. My focus is on intermediate and advanced German learners, who need a higher level of accuracy and fluency in terms of exposition, argumentation and self-expression. I had been teaching German at one of leading language schools in Berlin for over six years. I hold a Magister (German equivalent to the master's degree) in Germanistics (German language, literature, and history) from Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin (2001) and a teaching certificate of German as a foreign language from Goethe-Institut München (2010). Before becoming a language teacher, I was a journalist for six years at a local newspaper in Potsdam. Language lessons can be fun, but language-learning is certainly time-consuming and occasionally frustrating. I am therefore aiming at establishing collaborative relationships with my clients to keep them inspired and motivated throughout the journey. It would be a great honour and pleasure for me to participate in your language and/or career project. I look forward to working together with you! ❗️Please note that hourly rates fluctuate due to the changing demand, high inflation and foreseeable recession. Sorry for the inconvenience. Read more

Hi, I am an Italian-German native speaker who grew up in Italy and has been living in Germany for more than 6 years. I have been teaching... Italian for about 5 years and have experience with both beginners and advanced students. As a German teacher, I have gained experience mainly as a tandem partner and tutor. Furthermore, in order to be able to study in Germany, I had to take the DSH exam and thus intensively deepen my knowledge of German grammar. I think that the best way to learn a language is to talk, talk, talk! That's why my lessons focus mainly on communication. However, I also use a lot of grammar and comprehension exercises to deepen, understand and consolidate the vocabulary and basic rules of the language. If you already have a book, we can use it, otherwise I have worksheets for each level. If there is an area (writing, listening, culture, etc.) in which you would like to practise more, that's no problem. We can talk about the details together in the trial lesson and determine your personal focus. The Italian courses are held in Italian and the German courses in German, but I can speak English and if you don't understand everything I can help you. I look forward to hearing from you, Chiara Read more

An adventurous experience!

Hello! My name is Florentin, I've been teaching German for the last 8 years, working both with groups at university and 1-on-1. Maybe the most... important aspect for me is the atmosphere in which you can be at ease and speak freely without any fear of making mistakes. Mistakes are not only a natural part of the process, but have to be made and will help your understanding. Our class is a safe space where you can express yourself exactly as you do now and ask all the questions you may have. In a session we might do conversational exercise, rehearse an exam, go over your texts together, take a clarifying look into any specific topic you feel slightly or heavily confused about, listen together, read a text of your choice or do grammar exercises, advance your German from the ground up, play some games to get familiar with this language. All these activities that can be fun can also help us see what is needed for you to advance - in your own way and in your own time. We can use my materials and you are also welcome to bring whatever you would like to work with. More about me: I initially started teaching German after a one-year journey through South America which I undertook after graduating from university. During these travels I learned Spanish and subsequently got the task of offering tuition to students at university who were struggling with reading academic texts in German. Thereafter I started teaching all German levels to different groups at university and also to students individually and have been doing so for over 8 years now, in-person and online. I've also been leading translation groups and lecturing on other language topics like language philosophy. Living and teaching German in other countries for several years gave me deeper insight both into learning languages and into my own mother tongue and during that time I naturally adopted the role of a bridge between cultures and languages. I speak English and Spanish fluently and one of these languages could serve as additional support for our work together in case we share it :) Read more
