Born in Germany, but having lived, studied and worked in both the UK and Ireland for over 18 years, I carry both the linguistic expertise of a graduated linguist as well the cultural knowledge of a native German speaker.

Clive T
Clive is a fantastic tutor. He tutored my daughter for German GCSE. He is engaging, knowledgeable and encouraging. My daughter is dyslexic and was not confident in her German and Clive did a great job of building her confidence with clear helpful explanations of key grammar and vocabulary. My daughter enjoyed her sessions with Clive and would definitely recommend him!

Mara F
I've been learning German with Mara for around 2 months having used language apps prior to this.
Mara quickly grasped my level, identifying my weaknesses whilst also taking onboard my overall aspirations and what I hoped to achieve from tutoring.
Throughout my lessons, she has both requested and listened to my feedback regarding lesson structure, which are tailored to my preferences making them engaging and enjoyable.
Mara's traditional approach has improved my understanding of fundamental German language concepts which I hope to build on in the future.
In addition to the above, Mara is flexible with her schedule and very responsive outside of lesson time.
