German tutors in Hong Kong

Teacher joined in September 2019

Hello everyone! My name is Isabelle and I'm originally from Switzerland! My tutoring approach: I adjust my classes to each student's individual requirements, goals and skills. I believe it is important for my students to see that they can start using a foreign language very soon after they started their classes. I have been preparing students for the Goethe certificate exams and have been teaching children their very first words. As a tutor and trainer, I am very organized and take a fun, but logical approach to problem-solving situations. Good people skills come in handy during my creative and unique approach for each individual student. I am a self-motivated individual with a strong work ethic and an eye for detail and have the experience and core values that one needs to learn and improve the language. Please feel free to ask for a free consultation in order for me to understand your needs and goals and tailor your class to maximise your experience. If you feel more comfortable having an online class, please share your thoughts with me. Please feel free to inquire about preferential online class rates!

Hallo! Who would like to find the fun in learning German, while reaching clear goals? My name is Lea and I would love to accompany you on your educational journey! Born in Germany, I grew up bilingual, as I moved to South Africa post kindergarten, followed by Japan, and ending up back in Germany for high school! I then studied in Switzerland, worked in the UK, and have now been in Hong Kong for the past 7 years. My diverse background has given me a unique and multicultural perspective, which has definitely influenced my teaching style. My lessons always aim to be fully inclusive, sensitive to cultural differences, and, in group settings, a platform where students can learn from each other’s cultural richness. With a PhD in Environmental Science, Policy and Management, and an undergraduate degree in Hospitality Management with a financial focus, I have trained my communicative, presentation and writing skills in an extensive manner. I would also be more than happy to discuss subject matters in these areas but can of course branch out to any required topics! Over the years, I have held various teaching positions, most recently as a facilitator for the German language and culture discussion group at a university in Hong Kong. In the four years I spent teaching German in this group, the focus was on improving conversational language skills, enhancing students’ confidence to communicate in German, either as preparation for studying or working in Germany, or due to a general interest in the language. Students were of varying age groups and backgrounds, which enhanced the group’s diversity. My position here gave me the opportunity to discover ways in which to integrate various skill levels into my lesson plans in order to maximize the education potential for all group members. I always aimed to keep lessons fun and informative, trying to uncover personalized ways to motivative different students. During my time in HK, I have also helped to prepare candidates for the so called Deutscholympiade, a speech competition in HK offered by the Goethe-Institut, which has widened my teaching spectrum, as well as having helped to raise the German language profile at my university. During my PhD program, I also worked as a teaching assistant for 2 years. While actual teaching duties were minimal, I did gain valuable insights into presentation techniques, course design and addressing students concerns and questions, both in a group and on a one-on-one level. Furthermore, I did receive training on student engagement and teaching techniques. I have also held various teaching jobs during my undergraduate program. I worked as an SI (supplemental instruction) leader in IT, which taught me to guide students to discover answers and knowledge themselves, rather than simply delivering everything on a silver plate. This is meant to enhance both engagement, as well as knowledge retention. Furthermore, as part of an honours society, I tutored groups of students in varying subjects, ranging from Real Estate Finance to Statistics. I have also always enjoyed tutoring fellow students one-on-one. Overall, I am experienced in teaching students of all different age groups and would love to welcome anyone to learn German in a personalized and engaging manner! I am very committed to finding which teaching style works for you, I care about your personal learning goals, and I will do my best to guide you with patience and care! I would love to hear from you soon!

Hallo, Guten Tag:) My name is Matthäus and I am teaching German for more than 10 years. I have a master degree in Engineering and during my studies I taught German to foreign students. On the beginning I focused on conversational German, as my students need to learn to communicate. Now I am working in a language center in Wan Chai, where I also help students preparing for exams, like Goethe Certifications A1-C1, TestDaF, IGCSE, AS, PreU, etc. Based on the students need, I design my lessons, so that they are efficient and practical, and at the same time fun. I also want to inspire people to praise knowledge and skills and of course know more about German-speaking countries. I am looking forward to teach you and give you a glimpse in the German World! EDIT: I also offer online courses, so price will be lower. Stay safe :)

My name is Matthias, I come from southwestern part of Germany and have been living here in Hongkong since over a year. As qualification I have several DLL (how to teach German) certificates from Goethe Institute. As your future German tutor, it is very important for me to design and deliver the classes according to your individual needs, your interests and your learning type. To achieve this, we shall arrange a short meeting beforehand to get to know each other and discuss your expectation and your goals, also in a virtual way. Depending on your existing German skills I can teach you your first useful phrases, support you to improve your language-experience but also help you to prepare for exams or the Goethe-Language certifications A1 - C1. In my courses I am aiming to build up your ability to speak and write with a strong focus on your daily conversation with German-speakers. Together, you and me as German native, we can work on your language and intercultural skills step by step so you can make the best out of it to achieve your learning goals.

Hello dear German learner! I am Salome and I’m a certified German Teacher and Native Speaker. Together with you I want to work on your German language skills. I have many years of experience in teaching German as a foreign language and over the years I’ve specialised in teaching adults, who are moving to Germany, Austria or Switzerland for either professional or family reasons. Since I also live abroad - I am currently based in Hongkong - I know exactly which challenges you have to face sometimes due to language barriers. 
 By now I speak three foreign languages fluently myself and I’m working on a fourth one on an advanced level. I’m very passionate about languages. Therefore I’m teaching my program not only from a teachers perspective, but also from a language learner perspective. Communication is KEY when learning a new language. Hence, my online program covers a lot of conversations geared towards life in the D-A-CH countries and pronunciation exercises. Because if you can’t pronounce things properly you’ll have a hard time being understood and also understanding others. Of course grammar is also important so we can string our vocabulary to sentences, BUT we don’t want grammar to overwhelm us or keep us from learning German. So, we are going to focus on essential grammar only and take it step by step. My online course offers a variety of exercises and different activities, so that it never gets boring - promise! It truly is the most efficient way to get you from a beginners level to being able to navigate life in the german speaking countries with confidence and ease. I hope to see you soon! 學德語的同學們，大家好！我是Salome，我是一名來自德國的德語認證教師。我希望可以幫助你提高德語水平。我擁有多年的德語教學經驗，這些年來，我專註成人的德語教學，我的學生都有職業或者家庭原因需要移居德國、奧地利或者瑞士，我的職責是幫助他們提高語言能力，適應當地生活。由於我目前也生活在國外——香港，我確切地知道語言障礙會給你帶來什麽挑戰。 到目前為止，我自己能流利地說三門外語，正在學習第四門外語，因為我對語言非常感興趣，所以我不僅能從教師的角度，也能從語言學習者的角度來教授我的課程。 學習一門新語言時，能夠順利交流最為關鍵。因此，我的在線課程涵蓋了許多在德語國家（德國、奧地利、瑞士）生活的對話和發音練習。我明白如果你不能正確地發音，在對話的時候，你將很難被理解，也很難理解當地人。 當然，語法也是很重要的，它可以讓我們把詞匯順利地串聯成句，在學習德語中，語法是一大難題，但是我不希望語法會壓倒我的學生或者成為阻礙他們學習德語的原因，所以我將只關註基本語法，一步一步地來。 我的在線課程提供了各種各樣的練習和不同的項目培訓，我保證我的課程永遠不會變得枯燥。這也是最有效的讓你從一個德語初學者到能夠自信輕松地在德語國家生活說德語的方法。期待你的加入

Being raised in a mixed family, I can fluently speak Russian, Slovakian, and English. However, I decided to expand my knowledge in various languages and 7 years ago learned German. Being a past learner myself, it is genuinely easier for me to guide my students through the learning process making it easier for them. My previous experience helps my students to acquire learning, reading, listening, and speaking skills in a joyful and useful way. Usually, my clients are secondary or high-school students who want to pass the Goethe Exam A1, A2, or B1 level. However, I am open to any clients :) Feel free to drop a message below! Kind regards, Arkady

Guten Tag! My name is Antonia and I am a native German speaker. I have more than 7 years of tutoring experience in English and German. As a language teaching volunteer, I taught refugee students in Germany for over 3 years. My approach is teaching vocabulary and conversational German before getting into the grammar. As soon as my students have achieved a steady base of conversational language skills, we will intensely focus on grammar. I have found this approach to be the best for teaching, as I want my students to be confident in speaking German fluently.

I am a German/American student at HKU offering German (and/or English Classes) with a flexible schedule. I grew up in Berlin bilingual as the son of a German Diplomat. There I visited an International School allowing me to perfect both languages. I have taught German as an Au Pair and Babysitter before. Therefore, I have a lot of experience teaching children. Coming from Berlin I speak the standard “High German” (Hochdeutsch) the most common German free of any accents. If you’re interested, feel free to contact me anytime! :)
