Native German Teaching German
I am a native German speaker from Munich with over nine years of teaching and tutoring experience. I have taught German to professionals in a variety of industries, and I always make sure to customize the lessons with a specific goal in mind. Whether you want to learn German for a trip to Germany, for work, or for fun, I can help you reach fluency. Vocabulary, grammar, speaking, fluency, accent reduction, we will practice it all. It is easiest to learn a language by engaging in conversati...

Veronika (Nika) is extremely patient and she constructs each lesson according to your personal learning pace and ability. She makes learning German to be such a fascinating thing. Highly recommended!!!

All I can say is I wish I would have started this sooner. After taking classes in school/college and studying on my own, I took the plunge. Veronika has been simply great. She adjusts based on my skills or lack of skills and the sessions have went really well. I look forward to continued study.

Thanks to Nika, I am fluent in German. We started with the basics and now I am already fluent and at the intermediate level. In the beginning, I was hesitant about taking Skype lessons, but, honestly, it is just as good as being here. Even better: We have also been working on reducing my accent and thanks to lessons with Nika, who is a native speaker, I am getting close to eliminating my accent completely. Nika puts so much time and effort into preparing my lessons, and it is paying off: Even my native speaker wife congratulated me on how natural I am starting to sound. Nika is well-prepared, has the perfect material no matter what type of learner you are, and the progress I have been seeing is AMAZING. She is an incredible tutor and makes even the hardest concept easy. If you want to sound natural and like a native German speaker, go with Nika. You won’t regret it, even if it is via Skype!

As an older student I very much appreciate Nika's talent for teaching and her attentiveness to teach to my learning style. She is prepared, her lesson plan flows, and my German is improving!

Nika has done an outstanding job providing tailored lessons for all 3 of us. She has been very flexible with her schedule which is much appreciated. At first I was very skeptical that it would work very well via Skype, but honestly, it's as good as being here. Nika is well organized, has tons of material and is always available for questions before and after our lessons. As we are preparing for our trip to Germany, she provided very useful lessons that targeted normal every day conversations. I only wish I had the time and money to have Nika tutor us every day! I can already see and hear great improvements with myself and my children.

My tutor is helpful and is really helping me to grasp the language. I feel my German gets better and better every lesson.

I believe that Veronika deserves the title of my review. I have searched and contacted several German language tutors to assist my 10 year old daughter in continuing her German learning. It was not an easy process, especially because my daughter was in a German school until her 4th grade, so it was a must to find a native German tutor to help Sohaila in the best possible way after her move to a public school. Luckily, I had contact with Veronika by e-mail and from the first correspondence, I could tell that she knows well what she is doing and that she is committed. After a couple of sessions I could also tell that she is not an ordinary tutor who just communicates certain material with my daughter, but she was very keen to make sure that my daughter enjoys the time they spent together. I also cannot thank Veronika enough for the exceptional act she arranged - she has special ordered a 4th grade text book from Germany to be used as the main learning material with my daughter. Veronika didn't even ask me to pay for it, which I really appreciated. This act proved that she is not only a great tutor but also a very reliable person, and that we as a family could count on her to keep our daughter learning German as she was at school. On behalf of my daughter and the entire family, I appreciate your efforts, professionalism, and kindness and do hope to continue such an excellent and enjoyable experience with our daughter.

Nika is the best German teacher I have ever had! She makes learning German so fun and easy. Meine Lieblingslehrerin!

This is my first time taking German ever. She is very patient and helpful. Her lessons and materials are easy to follow. If you need help with German, even at beginners level, I recommend you to take her. You won't regret it.
