Courses can be taken online or in-person. I offer several levels; you can find more information about the current course offerings by clicking here. If you don't find a suitable course for you, there is the possibility of opening a new course, as long as there are at least three interested participants.
If there are two of you who want to take a course together, the course schedule and conditions can be adapted. Contact me and we will find a suitable model.
Remember that you also have the option of taking private lessons.
To ensure optimal scheduling, classes must be canceled at least 24 hours in advance. In this case, a replacement class can be rescheduled, which must take place within four weeks of the original date.
If the cancellation is made with less than 24 hours' notice, students will have the option of receiving personalized study materials for self-study, allowing them to continue their progress independently. This way, each session remains a learning opportunity.
Online classes are offered for children ages 12 and up, considering that for a child to learn successfully, they need a direct, physical learning environment. Furthermore, to stay motivated, they require a variety of materials, such as games, books, and resources for role-playing activities, among others.
In-person classes allow for more movement, breaks, experiments, and a greater variety of experiences that engage all the senses in learning. Therefore, I believe that face-to-face contact with younger children is more effective and motivating. When working with children under 12, I recommend opting for in-person classes.

It is recommended to learn German regularly, as frequent contact with the language is key to progress. In addition to classes, learning can be complemented with music, TV series, books, or podcasts. The number of hours varies depending on the goals and availability: from 1-2 classes per week (1-4 hours) to intensive summer courses. To maintain your level, 1 hour per week may be sufficient, while for rapid progress, 4 hours per week are recommended. In any case, I help design a suitable study plan.

The playgroup is aimed at children under 10 years old who are growing up in a bilingual environment (German + one or more other languages). It offers them the opportunity to be in contact with German outside of their home environment and to interact with other children in a similar language situation. It is required that at least one parent speaks German regularly with the child and that the child has a passive understanding of the language.
The activities focus on play and creative experiences such as crafts, songs, or movement games. This is not a formal language instruction, but rather a natural activation of German in a playful and social context. Through this relaxed and fun exposure, children spontaneously strengthen their language skills.
Classes are offered online. They can be offered individually or in groups, or even a combination of both, depending on the needs of the group.
Classes are tailored to the specific needs of the company and the students. Together, we define the learning objectives and develop a personalized curriculum, which can include topics such as internal communications, negotiations, presentations, and more.

Learning German is an excellent opportunity to immerse yourself in the culture of the countries that speak it. Imagine exploring Berlin, the beautiful landscapes of Austria, or enjoying the nature of Switzerland, and being able to communicate with people in their own language. Furthermore, having German language skills opens the door to films, music, and other content that will allow you to better understand the traditions and daily life of these cultures.
From a professional perspective, knowing German is a huge plus. It's the most widely spoken language in Europe and an official language in key countries like Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. Many international companies and universities highly value this language, which can significantly improve your job and academic prospects.
And if that weren't enough, learning a new language is also an excellent way to exercise your mind, better understand other cultures, and develop greater empathy, something that is always valuable in our society.
In short, learning German is an investment that brings many benefits, and it's truly worth a try!
