Cornelia

I am a passionate and enthusiastic German teacher (native speaker) with years of experience in teaching adults as well as children and young adults. I am here to help you improving your language skills on different levels but also to support you in preparing for exams such as A-levels, GCSEs or other language certificates.

Tutoring Experience

I began my studies in Graz, where I graduated from Linguistics and I also hold a degree in German Studies. I started teaching German at the University of Debrecen in Hungary before I came to work as a language assistant at the University of Bath. My role as a language assistant encompassed planning and delivering language classes as well as creating the materials, test design and assessing students.

Tutoring Approach

In my teaching, I focus on using diverse teaching methods in order to deliver motivating and inspiring teaching. I aim to tailor the classes according to the needs of my students and provide different approaches for different learning types to make sure that the learners get the most out of the class.
As I am a language learner myself (I studied Italian for my A-Levels, started to learn Arabic when I was at University and I engaged myself in learning Hungarian during the two years I spent in the country), I know also „the other side“ and I understand that it can be frustrating at times when it feels like you're not making any progress, but also how rewarding and fun it can be to delve into a different language and culture.
