My lessons are designed especially for expats, newcomers, professionals, students, and anyone who wants to feel more confident in daily life, at work, or within Swiss society. Beginners and advances learners are welcome. 

Lessons can be held online or in person* in Zurich. For in-person lessons, I can come to your home, office, or a pulbic coworking space, depending on what works best for you. 

*The price for in-person lessons differs from the rates listed above and depends on your location. 

Yes! Evening lessons are possible and can be scheduled according to your availability. After 8:00 PM, an additional fee applies. 

Lessons ususally include a mix of: 

• Speaking practice

• Vocabulary building

• Grammar exercises

If you have a specific focus (e.g. exam preparation for the Goethe Certificate / Swiss citizenship test / etc.), I can adjust the lesson accordingly. We work with structured materials and after each lesson you'll receive the key content and homework for review in digital form. 

The lessons are completely digital, which means you only need your laptop or tablet and optionally a notebook for your personal notes.

All learning materials are provided digitally, so you don’t need to buy any books or additional resources.  

Do you want to prepare for an exam – whether it’s the Goethe Certificate, FIDE, telc, or the Swiss naturalization test? Together, we’ll go through the exam structure, practice with real test materials, and strengthen your German so you can approach the exam confidently and relaxed. 

To make progress, you should take at least one lesson per week. If you consistently take two or more lessons per week and do homework, you will notice clear improvements quickly. 

In general: the more contact you have with the language, the faster you progress. This can happen not only in lessons, but also at home through self-study or in interaction with German speakers. 

It depends on your previous knowledge, the frequency of your lessons, and how much time you invest in studying outside of class. As a general guideline, one language level (e.g. A1) usually requires around 60 hours of instruction. If you take two 120-minute lessons per week and complete the assigned homework, you can typically finish one level in about 15 weeks. 

It's recommended to first build a solid foundation in Standard German (around B2 level) before starting Swiss German lessons. This helps avoid mixing the two languages too much. 

However, during regular German lessons, I can already point out Swiss-specific features of Standard German and teach you the most common Swiss words and expressions, so you get an early feel for the Swiss language without affecting your Standard German skills.

Swiss German lessons focus on understanding Swiss German - especially the Zurich dialect.

We read texts in Swiss German, listen to audios in different dialects, and closely examine the differences between Swiss German and Standard German. 

Unlike regular German lessons, the focus here isn’t on grammar or perfection, but on overcoming the language barrier with Swiss German speakers. 

Yes! Group lessons are possible, for example for colleagues, friends, or family members. The lessons are designed so that everyone can actively participate. 

Yes, I offer structured courses for businesses. Each level (e.g., A1, B2) can accommodate up to 10 participants. With 2 lessons of 120 minutes per week, it takes about 10 weeks to complete a level. 

The courses can take place on-site at the company, online, or in a hybrid format, allowing some participants to attend in person while others join online.

Payment can be made via Twint, bank transfer, Wise, PayPal or Revolut.
Lessons are paid in advance, unless agreed otherwise. 

If you have any questions regarding payment or need a different solution, feel free to contact me and we'll find an option that works for both of us. 

Simply contact me via email or WhatsApp, and we'll schedule a trial lesson where you van get to know me and my teaching style.
