Introduction
Since I am originally from Germany I know what it takes to have patience for a foreign language. I have been a tutor for over 6 years and a Substitute Teacher. I enjoy every minute of it. I do online and in person tutoring. I am located in South Carolina.I use a great textbook and a great Grammar book that everyone has liked so far and I give homework when needed. My hours are flexible and I am trying to meet your needs and demands. I also want to make sure if you do decide to take lessons make it a priority and not just on a whim. I spent a lot of time figuring out what’s best for the customer and I expect the same in return . If you are just looking to take a few lessons here and there please don’t waste your time. I am looking to teach long term so I can see the progress in every student. My main focus is to teach beginners level and I tutor on a personal level and simply to understand, College students are welcome and great with preparation for tests . I also offer discounts if booking 3 lessons or more altogether. My hours are Monday through Friday 9 am until 5 pm EST .Also in order to just get a first impression I prefer to do a free 15 minute Skype consultation to make sure that we are both a good fit. My cancellation policy is the following: 24 hours prior our lesson no charge, any time after I will need to charge for a full lesson. This is my primary job and I expect my students to be considerate and respectful of that. Thank you for visiting my profile.

Took her lessons before I went to Germany in 2022. Though I didn’t continue, she prepped me and provided me with great material and advice. I would recommend her and work with her again.

Manuela is a great teacher! She always take the time to explain concepts to me, and I’ve been able to make a lot of progress with my German. She is also very nice and encouraging! Because I’ve been taking lessons with her, I’ve been able to learn much more than I would on my own!

Manuela makes learning easy. She lets you learn on your pace. Throughly going through the work books. Never in a rush. Also educate’s on Regions of Germany itself.
