Rob's testimonial (New York)
Vera is a patient and giving coach who has succeeded in transforming me from basic German to a much more confident speaker in just 3 months!
Vera's attention to my specific needs and learning style really separates her from language coaches I have worked with in the past. Vera also goes above and beyond, providing extra German speaking opportunities via her Conversational Meetups, which she offers free of charge.
I would definitely recommend her as a coach for anyone looking to learn the German language by someone who also knows the importance of a personal approach in language learning.
Sofía's testimonial (Buenos Aires)
Vera's genuine love for languages shines through in every lesson. Her enthusiasm is infectious and makes learning enjoyable. I always look forward to our sessions, as they strike the perfect balance between learning and having a good time. Vera's friendly and approachable teaching style creates a supportive atmosphere for learning.
Additionally, her in-depth knowledge of German grammar is truly impressive. What sets her apart is her ability to explain even the trickiest grammar rules in a simple and logical manner. She has a knack for making complex concepts feel easy to grasp.
In short, Vera's expertise, combined with her passion for languages, creates a fantastic learning experience. Learning German with her guidance has been a real pleasure, and I couldn't be happier with my progress.
Priya's testimonial (Mumbai)
Vera has helped me prepare my TELC B1.
The first thing that impressed me working with Vera, is the level of preparation and hard work she put from her side. Starting the sessions, I was prepared to put in the work, what I didn’t expect is the amount of work it takes the coach to help. For each exercise, Vera gave specific feedback, helpful suggestions & tips, and even additional exercises for focused learning. Of course this requires a deep understanding of the language, but also a great level of attention to detail and dedication to her clients’ success.
Always positive and patient, she built my confidence in speaking bit by bit in each session. I am really grateful for Vera’s contribution to my German skills, and would recommend her to everyone trying to ace their German test.
Do you live in Switzerland or plan to move here soon? No matter if you want a better job, to become a resident or simply to be able to understand the local people and make friends, you need to speak German.
So how’s your German now? And what’s your target level? Is it B1? B2? C1?
Learning and speaking German in Switzerland can be overwhelming, expensive and locals actually speak Swiss German, an Alemanic dialect. It can take a lot of time, especially next to your job, and it can feel like you’re NOT making progress.
Now, what about reaching that A2, B1 or B2 level faster? And doing it even in a fun way?
I'm Vera, ...
... your German coach in Switzerland and I won’t only teach you standard German, but I will also share the secrets of Swiss words and culture with you. The level of my students ranges from A1 to B2 and I also prepare them for German exams (FIDE, KDE, Goethe, TELC).
I speak 7 languages myself and I got to see the most common reasons why people don’t succeed while learning a new language, and what it takes to learn a language faster.
So learning German ...
... should be personalized and enjoyable. That's why we focus on YOUR goals, YOUR interests, and YOUR learning style. Together, we'll create a customized learning plan that suits you best.
On top of that, you’re welcome to join the free Conversational Meetup where you can practice and improve your German while connecting and making friends with other German learners living in Switzerland.
Are you ready to reach that German level faster?
Get to know Vera
Having grown up in beautiful central Switzerland (Zug), I have been passionate about languages since my youth. My MLaw degree I did entirely in French. Following that, my language journey brought me to Buenos Aires and Madrid where I achieved a Spanish C1 level. Now I live in Zürich.
I am a big fan of deep-diving into different cultures and "linguistical immersion" for learning languages. That's also how I learned Dutch from my partner: I mainly just started speaking to him in Dutch, every day a little more.
I'm dedicated to helping more people like you and sharing my experiences with language learning.
Why learn German with Vera?
- You will quickly get confident with speaking
- I give you simple explanations of the grammar you need for being able to speak with ease. This way, grammar rules become second nature rather than a chore to memorize - it's all intuitive learning!
- You learn standard German, but adapted to your life in Switzerland. So from the beginning on you learn words commonly used like Tram, Velo, Zug, Trottoir ...
Lili and Andris' testimonial (Budapest)
German lessons with Vera are fun. She uses a wide range of resources and the homework is never boring. She also makes sure that the classes are tailor-made to our needs: she adjusts the pace and learning materials and focuses on topics of interest to us.
Our goal is to reach a conversational level, so we practice real-life situations in Switzerland. We also learn Swiss German expressions which we can use in real conversations!
We are really happy with the progress we’re making with Vera. She’s a remarkable teacher, who we warmly recommend to anyone who wants to learn German.
