Certified Exam Prep. Tutor + Native Speaker: HS, College, Business
I love teaching because I constantly see how students thrive if they have the right tools to learn German. In my classes German is comprehensive, fun, and yet straightforward. I like to find ways that make learning German easier, and more time-efficient.
Many students lose interest in learning a language because of a cookie cutter approach. Here, it's the opposite; lessons are very individual and carefully customized to the preferences, weaknesses, and strengths of my students.

Expert German AP tutor
Dorothee is a very experienced AP German tutor. She knows the test itself inside out and also has a very good understanding of the standardized test-taking process. She is a native German speaker who fundamentally understands and expertly teaches the rules of German grammar as well as test-taking techniques that will help my son master any standardized test. Dorothee takes her job as a tutor seriously, while always being friendly and maintaining a good sense of humor. I highly recommend Dorothee!

Good preparation for AP German exam!
Dorothee was super helpful and kind, and helped me feel prepared for the AP German exam! I had weekly lessons with her for 1.5 months, and she gave me helpful tips and introduced me to the structure of the exam. That way I felt familiar with all of the elements during the actual exam, and I was able to improve my speaking and writing. Thank you, Dorothee, I really enjoyed the lessons!

Knowledgeable and Patient German Tutor
Dorothee works very well with our teenage son. He had never taken German before so it was all new to him. She explains grammar clearly and logically. She’s patient and encouraging. He loves the language so we’re very thankful for her tutoring.
