I am a open-minded person. I love to travel, descovering new places and cultures. Therefore I enjoy learning new languages and using and practicing them where I can. At first I took part in several organised trips as well as exchange programs and later on I went backpacking on my own, raising a little bit the level of adventure! My other passion is handicraft in all its facets.
Me as a Teacher
As I love to learn languages myself I try to find the most entertaining way of teaching my native language to my students. It is always motivating to use hobbies or interest as a base for learning a language! Besides the theory of grammar which always comes with it, the fun-part should never be missed! The most important aspect is the motivation!
As for myself I do enjoy teaching, pointing out new ways and possibilities of learning. Accompanying my students in their learning or improving process.
I did a training to be a certified German teacher from the Goethe Institut (Lehrerin für Deutsch als Zweit- und Fremdsprache --> DaF/DaZ-Zertifikat) which I completed successfully in April 2023.
My lessons & teaching style
It always depends on the type of student you are, everyone learns in different ways. So I adapt my way of teaching individually to my students learning type. There are many ways to keep the classes interesting by being creative and using songs, german series, audiotexts, videos and games instead of only the textbook.
Please read the descriptions of the diferent types of lessons I offer.
As the italki-system proposes, there is the posibility to cancel or change schedule until 24hs before the lesson begins. Within these 24hs before the lesson there will be no posibility to cancel or reschedule the lesson, it will be charged as it's on too short notice, please undestand. Thanks :)

I've studied German with Charly for a while and it has been a great experience! She is very professional and uses a variety of techniques/exercises. Class is always fun :) Danke!

I'd highly recommend lessons with Charly! Conversation is easy and engaging, and she is kind in adapting lessons to the student's needs and interests. For the informal tutoring sessions, the provision of outside material is helpful, and facilitates a nice combination of speaking practice with work on other skills. I'm appreciating improving my speaking in a relaxed, stress-free, and supportive environment. Thanks! :)

It's always a pleasure to talk with Charly. Fun and getting easier every week for me to ask about what I don't understand in German instead of reverting to English.

Ich habe darüber gefreut, dass Charly kennenzulernen. Sie ist sehr gelduldig und hoflich. Ich bin nicht in der Lage, fließend Deutsch zu sprechen, und hatte ich Problem mit WLAN, trotzdem hat sie schönen Unterhaltungklima geschaffen. Vielen Dank Charly!

Charly is fun, friendly and easy to talk to. She won't judge you if you make mistakes or don't know how to say something. Conversation flows naturally. I have really been enjoying our conversations so far. :)
