About Johannes

I'm Johannes, a native German speaker, biologist, and researcher with a PhD in Comparative Biology from the American Museum of Natural History in New York. Alongside my scientific education, I studied English literatures, linguistics, and language teaching at university in Germany.

German is my mother tongue, and I have a strong interest in languages and how people learn them. I speak English, Spanish, and French fluently, and have also studied Italian, Portuguese, and Bribri, an Indigenous language of Costa Rica. Having learned several languages myself, I understand the challenges of developing fluency, mastering grammar, and becoming confident in everyday communication.

My academic and professional experience has taken me across five continents, and I have worked and lived in different linguistic and cultural environments. I enjoy sharing my language and helping students understand not just how German is structured, but how it is actually used in everyday life.

My goal is to make learning German approachable, interesting, and practical, while helping you build the confidence to communicate independently.

About the lesson

My lessons are tailored to your level, goals, and learning pace. I combine conversation and practical exercises with clear explanations of grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation. Rather than simply memorizing words and rules, I want you to understand how German works and become confident using it.

We can work on everyday German, conversation, grammar, pronunciation, reading, and writing. Depending on your goals, lessons can focus on traveling, living or working in a German-speaking country, academic German, or simply developing your ability to communicate naturally.

I offer a first free session as an opportunity to understand where you stand and what you want to achieve. We'll discuss your previous experience with German, the materials you've been using, what you've already learned, and where you encounter difficulties. From there, we'll identify your priorities and work on exercises and topics that address your individual needs.

A typical lesson includes a brief review of previous material, a new topic or learning objective, and practical exercises. We'll work on all four language skills: reading, writing, listening, and speaking. Depending on your level and preferences, we can also use a textbook as the backbone of our lessons.

As a native German speaker who has learned several foreign languages myself, I understand the challenges involved in learning a new language. I can explain difficult concepts in English or Spanish whenever helpful.

Lessons are suitable for high school students, university students, and adults at all levels, from complete beginners to advanced learners.
