Native German speaker from Hannover, now living in Canada, helping adults enjoy relaxed, confident and natural German conversations.

I met Susanne through a networking group, and we connected right away. Since then, we’ve met for coffee, had lunch together, and shared some really thoughtful conversations, along with plenty of laughs.

Susanne is warm, approachable, patient, and easy to talk to, which I truly believe are such important qualities in a tutor. She has a natural way of making people feel comfortable, and I can easily see how that would help students feel confident while learning German.

I would happily recommend Susanne to anyone looking for a German tutor who is kind, encouraging, professional, and genuinely invested in helping others learn.

I am very pleased to recommend Susanne as a German language teacher in Canada.
Susanne is exceptionally reliable, professional, and well organized. She speaks clear, accurate standard German (Hochdeutsch) and communicates in a way that is easy for learners to understand. Her excellent command of German, combined with her ability to explain language clearly and patiently, makes her very well suited to teaching students at a range of levels.
In addition to her strong German language skills, Susanne also speaks English very well. This is a real advantage for English-speaking students, as she can clarify grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, and cultural context effectively when needed.
I am confident that Susanne would be a knowledgeable, dependable, and encouraging German teacher. I recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for high-quality German instruction.

I had the pleasure of working with Susan, and what began as a professional relationship quickly grew into a genuine friendship that continues to this day. I was going through a difficult time in my life when I met Susan, and she showed me such genuine empathy, patience, and compassion. She took the time to truly listen to my story and made me feel comfortable opening up.

I’m typically a very private and closed-off person, but Susan’s kindness, patience, and ability to make people feel heard helped me open up in ways I didn’t expect. Her support made a meaningful difference for me, and I’m incredibly grateful for that.

Susan is kind, caring, detail-oriented, hardworking, passionate, and incredibly trustworthy. She brings a genuine warmth and positive energy to every interaction, and it’s clear that she truly wants what’s best for every person she encounters.

I don’t typically write reviews, but in this case, I genuinely felt compelled to. I can wholeheartedly recommend Susan and her services to anyone looking for someone who is not only dedicated and professional, but who truly cares about the people she works with.

I know Susanne from Germany, and I can wholeheartedly recommend her. What has always impressed me about her is how quickly she became really good at English herself. She had a clear goal, genuinely enjoyed learning, and fully embraced the language.

That personal experience is something she can now pass on to others. Susanne is empathetic, patient, warm, and simply a wonderful person. With her, you never have to feel uncomfortable about making mistakes — and in my opinion, that is one of the most important things when learning a new language.

Do you really need a teaching degree to help someone learn a language? I don’t think so. What matters much more is the person: patience, empathy, a genuine love of communication, and, of course, a natural feel for the language. And learning from a native speaker means you don’t just learn grammar and vocabulary — you also learn how German is actually spoken in everyday life.

It’s almost a shame I already speak German — otherwise, Susanne would definitely be my first choice!

Susanne is one of the most warm and open-minded people I know! We connected randomly on social media and formed a wonderful bond. Anyone who wants to learn, practice and improve their German language skills will find encouragement and fun while working with Susanne. Sign up with her today!
