Meines Erachtens ist Kathy die beste Lehrerin der Welt. Ich habe so viele Lehrer erlebt, aber wegen ihrer intelligenten Art zu lernen, Pünktlichkeit, Umfangreiche Informationen und genaue Nutzung der Zeit, könnte ich niemand anderen als Lehrer akzeptieren. Ich würde nur sagen, dass sich meine Sprachkenntnisse nach nur wenigen Kursen erheblich verbessert haben.

Kathy ist eine deutsche Lehrerin, die fünf verschiedenen Sprachen beherrscht hat. Basierend auf ihre Erfahrungen beim Erlernen mehrerer Fremdsprachen, hat sie eine effiziente Herangehensweise gefunden, um Fremdsprachen zu erlernen und zu unterrichten. Während des vergangenen halben Jahres, habe ich eine große Menge an deutscher Kenntnissen von ihr erworben. Glücklichweise habe ich die Goethe B2 Prüfung im Ende Mai bestanden. Wenn Sie auch Deutsch lernen wollen, ist Kathy eine ausgezeichnete und passende Lehrerin für Sie.

I worked with many tutors before Kathy and felt disheartened about learning a new language. After working with Kathy, my goals were suddenly within reach. Kathy is enthusiastic, uplifting, and genuinely wants you to succeed in learning a new language. Not only is she extremely personable, but she thoroughly understands all the material. She isn't afraid to call you out for doing something wrong. I genuinely love this about her! I have walked out of every session feeling like I gained infinitely more than expected. Kathy is a fantastic and excellent tutor. Tutoring sessions with her are extremely educational and action packed! I have to catch my breath afterward.

Kathy met me where I am in my German learning, which required detailed exploration of my weaknesses and a plan to address them. We have set weekly goals and some progress is already in sight. She works with all the resources we have, is very patient with mistakes and the customized lessons are very engaging. I am so impressed that I booked her all the way until next summer!
