I'm Stefanie, I'm 40 years old and I live in Bavaria, in Germany. I've always been interested in foreign languages and I'd be happy to help you with German. I'm a very patient teacher, because I'm learning languages myself and I know how frustrating it can be sometimes. I enjoy helping my students and I make sure my lessons are focused on you and your individual needs. I encourage you to actively use the language you are learning from the beginning as that is the best way to progress fast. Any mistake is a chance to learn something new, so I want you to not be afraid of mistakes. In case you are struggling with listening comprehension, please don't worry, it is totally fine for me to speak extra slow or repeat words as often as necessary. We will speak in German as much as possible, but we can always switch to English, Spanish or Dutch whenever it is needed. Please note that I do not teach children. Unfortunately, because it keeps happening, I need to point out the following: ** No-shows and late cancellations ** According to the italki rules, cancellations are not possible within 24 hours before the lesson. I understand that sometimes unexpected things happen, so I grant students one exception every three months. After that, the student will have to pay the full amount. I hope you appreciate the concession but also understand the limit.

Stephanie is a breath of fresh air and a ray of sunshine. Genuine, patient, and caring are words I use to describe her. Super knowledgeable about teaching as she is a lifetime learner of languages herself. I always enjoy her customized lesson.

Fantastic teacher, attentive and gives really useful feedback in lessons but without interrupting the flow of conversation so that you get practice to build your confidence and also useful feedback and knowledge to help you improve. I’m really enjoying the classes.
