One of our best tutors. Quality profile, experience in their field, verified qualifications and a great response time. Luisa will be happy to arrange your first German lesson.

About Luisa

I am doing my post-graduate degree at Oxford and have an undergrad degree in International Relations from King's College London, but my interests & teaching topics go way beyond that.

Since I was born in Berlin, I speak very clear German without any dialect. I went to international schools from middle school on, so I was also in the position of being a second-language learner myself and can relate to the struggles, but also the passion, of learning new languages.

I would love to help you improve your German; whether spoken, written, improving your accent, or simply building your vocabulary. I also help with, or conduct German translations at any level.

About the lesson

I have been teaching students of all levels on Superprof since summer 2020! Throughout this time I have taught absolute beginners; people who were preparing for specific exams; some who were fluent years or even decades ago and want to get back into speaking; intermediate German speakers who feel stuck and want to progress to the next level; and even career diplomats. It's always rewarding to see my students meet their goals!

The lessons are tailored to your aims and expectations, so I offer a free introductory call as an opportunity to get to know each other and for me to find out what it is that you want to learn/improve overall.

Examples of Lesson Types:
- Speaking classes (including grammar and vocabulary)
- Speaking, reading and listening classes (including grammar and vocabulary)
- Exam preparation lessons
- Correcting homework / assignments etc. (different rates apply)
- Translations (different rates apply)

Apart from online lessons, I will translate texts at any level from German to English and vice versa (different rates apply).

I look forward to meeting you!

Perfect! Luisa is a great teacher: she has designed well structured lessons but allows the student to tailer the time to their specific objectives. For example, a large portion of our lessons are spent in conversation since speaking is the area I most want to improve in. Luisa is friendly and encouraging without that compromising her rigour as a teacher. I would definitely recommend her to anyone wanting to learn German.

Perfect! Luisa is a wonderful tutor who has patiently worked with me to improve my German over the last 9 months. We have a good balance of speaking, reading and listening in each class. They are always quite fun and a chance to learn new vocabulary. Luisa also sets a short written homework which we go through together. I really enjoy each lesson and I have become much more confident, particularly in my speaking. I strongly recommend working on your language skills with Luisa.

Henry is taking lessons with me along-side his Goethe Institut classes to improve his speaking and get some personal tutoring next to the more general group classes. He is a very bright, kind and funny student and always comes prepared to class. Within a short period of time I have already seen great improvements and we often talk about international affairs together, which helps Henry to broaden his vocabulary and talk about news in his personal life. Thanks for being such a great student!

Perfect! Luisa is super-friendly, organised and thorough! She is prepared for every lesson and has a structured approach to what she would like to teach. However, this is flexible, as she always accommodates any questions that I have. She also sets personalised homework to reinforce the main learning of each lesson.

In addition to this, Luisa is really personable and makes each lesson fun and engaging! She’s really motivated to help others and genuinely cares about my progress. She is also very flexible regarding when we book lessons each week, which I appreciate.

If you’re looking for a German tutor, I can’t recommend Luisa highly enough! Vielen dank! :)

Perfect! Luisa is a terrific teacher, who will lead you through the complexity of German language with simplicity and dedication. Luisa's lessons are pleasant and she'll know how to push you in the right way depending on what you want to achieve. I look forward to this hour of my week because I know I will lear something new and have a good time, too. Beware, German remains tough - but listen to Luisa, do some home-works and you'll see good progress.

Perfect! Luisa is a great tutor! The lessons are fun, challenging, and involve a good mixture of grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation. At the start of each lesson, we spend some time writing/talking about things I've done recently, or will be doing soon, so I know the vocabulary that I am learning is very applicable to my life and activities. Other than this, Luisa is very friendly and very organised :)

Perfect! Luisa has been a brilliant German teacher so far. She always comes to lessons prepared with a clear agenda that allows me to learn day to day German, as well as learn key grammar. She has a unique teaching style which includes speaking, listening, reading and writing, which we go through in every class. Luisa has also been incredibly accomodating which is useful if you are a student or are working and therefore cannot always commit to the same time every week. I would highly recommend Luisa as a German teacher.

Find out more about Luisa

Do you speak this language fluently because of your origins or because a teacher inspired you to learn?
German is my mother tongue, but I also speak English at a native level because of my secondary and higher education which was entirely in English.
Can you name a living, historical or fictional character that you think is the emblematic representative of the language's culture?
I would say Romy Schneider who played "Sissi," the German princess who married the Austrian emperor, in the Sissi movies. Her German is truly beautiful and makes you fall in love with the language all over again.
Is there a typical word, phrase, tradition or behavior in the language that you particularly like?
Germans always slap their thighs, say "so!" and stand up when they want to leave a party or dinner. It's really funny - you should try to look for this behavior in restaurants.
Why does speaking this language matter to you?
I always want to keep speaking German because it is my mother tongue and because it's such a complex and beautiful language. Indeed - it's the language of philosophy.
What is the main difficulty in learning this language and what can help the process of learning?
The pronunciation is key and this is best improved through speaking lessons!
Provide a valuable anecdote related to your language learning or your days at school.
I have been a second language learner myself a lot of times so I can emphasize with my students struggles: I studied English and French and am currently learning Luxembourgish and Italian.
How has travel or a specific trip helped you to increase your skill and knowledge of the language?
Travel has not helped me improve my German, but it has opened my mind to all cultures and languages and I am eager to learn about these and to meet students from different backgrounds.
What makes you a Superprof in language?
I speak 3 languages (German, English, French) and am always learning new ones (Italian and Luxembourgish). I can emphasize with my students struggles and want to make their class experience super fun and but also challenging. Remember: What doesn't challenge you, won't change you!  But if I had to name one thing that I love about these lessons, it is that I always laugh so much with my students and love to see them improve.
