Hadika M
Dedicated German tutor
As a Chemical Engineering graduate from the University of Manchester, I saw firsthand how many of my classmates struggled with Maths and English. It wasn't just a few; it was a common challenge. Seeing their difficulties sparked something in me. I found that I genuinely loved helping them understand concepts that seemed confusing. The feeling of watching them grasp a difficult idea was incredibly rewarding, and that's when I discovered my passion for teaching.I strongly disagree with the idea that people are naturally "good" at one subject and "bad" at another. I believe that anyone can learn anything...

Elisabeth I
German Learning Made Fun
I hold a BA Honours Degree in German and French with Spanish as an extra subject, and I also hold a teaching certificate from Germany. Besides, I am a German native speaker and have lived and worked in France, which means that I can provide students with intricacies that you normally only acquire when you live in the foreign country. Teaching languages is my passion as I believe it opens a whole new world for the student, and I feel that I relate well to learners of all ages.

Sabine K
Sabine has been an excellent tutor for my son at German GCSE. I wish we had found her sooner. She has adapted her approach to suit him and he has really enjoyed working with her. I would highly recommend Sabine to anyone looking for a German tutor.

Ricarda M
My daughter has been using Ricarda for A Level German tuition for the past couple of months. My daughter's test grades have already gone up and her teacher has commented on the progress she has made over the last couple of months. Ricarda is very personable, reliable and responsive. She listens, and quickly understood the areas my daughter needs to work on. She is a great tutor and I'm very happy that I chose her to support my daughter. I would highly recommend Ricarda!

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.

My daughter was predicted a grade 5 in her German GCSE but, thanks to Astrid, she achieved a grade 7! Astrid’s lessons were clear, supportive, and really helped build her confidence, she even started to enjoy German. Astrid was also kind and flexible, which made the whole experience so positive. We’re so grateful for the huge difference she made and would highly recommend her!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for A-Level German at Durham Johnston. Can a tutor help with that specific goal?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students bridge the gap from GCSE to A-Level. They can focus on solidifying the key knowledge and skills needed to meet the entry requirements for competitive sixth forms and colleges, ensuring your child feels fully prepared for the step up.
Can a German tutor help my child prepare a stronger university application for a place like Durham University?
Yes, they can be a great help. A tutor can help your child achieve the high grades needed for a competitive application. They can also work on developing a deeper passion and understanding of the language and culture, which can shine through in their personal statement and interviews.
How do I choose the right German tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. Many tutors offer a free 15-minute video chat, which is a great way to talk about your child's goals and see if their teaching style is a good match before you book.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a thorough background check. We are also very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply to ensure the highest quality.
How much do online German lessons cost in Durham?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts.
How can a tutor help my child with their German speaking confidence?
This is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A tutor provides a safe, encouraging space for your child to practice speaking without the fear of making mistakes in front of a whole class. They can role-play scenarios and build fluency and confidence ahead of their oral exams.
My child finds German grammar really difficult. Can a tutor help?
Definitely. Tricky grammar points like German cases or verb tenses are often where students get stuck. A tutor can take the time to explain these concepts in a way that makes sense to your child, using examples and practice exercises until it clicks.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something like music or coding too?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum! Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with Python coding, or even learn a new skill yourself, you can find an expert tutor on our platform.
How do online lessons actually work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and a space for sharing documents. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.
How long does it take to see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade with regular lessons. The personalised attention means a tutor can quickly identify and work on the areas where your child needs the most support.
How can a tutor help my child with their German speaking confidence?
Life happens, we get it! You can easily manage your schedule through our platform. We just ask that you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice if you need to cancel or change a lesson time.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
