Optimistic, caring tutor
Ezequiel, 110 lessons with JaneeI began my journey with Janee in May 2024 with the goal of reaching B2 by April 2025 in order to study in Germany. I took classes with her online since I live in Puerto Rico, where no one speaks German; I also want to mention I am 18. Other tutors (who charged double) told me it was an overambitious goal and that it would take at least two years with hard work. I chose Janee because she warned me it would be hard, but definitely possible, and she promised to make it as fun as possible. She...
Take the way you are, strengths and supposed weaknesses, and let me show you how amazing that is!
I'm as passionate about tutoring means of communication today as I was with 10 years old, changing the lives of those who are counted plagued with learning disabilities or struggle with learning new languages.

Optimistic, caring tutor
I began my journey with Janee in May 2024 with the goal of reaching B2 by April 2025 in order to study in Germany. I took classes with her online since I live in Puerto Rico, where no one speaks German; I also want to mention I am 18. Other tutors (who charged double) told me it was an overambitious goal and that it would take at least two years with hard work. I chose Janee because she warned me it would be hard, but definitely possible, and she promised to make it as fun as possible. She was also transparent about the fact that she normally teaches beginner levels. I began taking classes with her four times a week, and she did not disappoint at all. Most classes flew by; they were fun yet serious. In less than a month I could feel the progress. She gave good homework and it showed that she cared about my learning. I must emphasize this: she made it a priority that I understood the material while being patient and understanding. It was noticeable that she went beyond what was expected during the lessons and outside of them. Another thing that stood out was her way of explaining. She didn’t just ask me to memorize. Since German is somewhat of a logical language with rules, she made sure I understood those rules, which significantly boosted my speed in learning the language. In January 2025, I felt confident with my German skills; however, my speaking skills still needed a boost, so I decided to do an Immersive Course in Germany. After that, I stopped taking classes with Janee. Even though she mainly teaches beginner levels, she also managed to give me a strong base in higher levels. When I took the TestDaF, I felt really confident. My scores were enough to study in Germany. Janee was truly a fundamental person in my journey. Her optimism and energy kept me excited about learning German throughout the year. She is very fun but simultaneously serious, someone who cares more about her students’ progress than anything else. Her way of teaching is the reason I was able to study in Germany and understand the language so quickly. I recommend her to anybody and everybody. I also recommend doing her homework and tasks, it doesn’t matter if they seem too beginner or childish.

Renee quickly made an astute assessment of my child's reading capability and worked with him where he needed guidance the most.

Patient and great communicator with kids!
Janee is great with kids, patient and a great communicator, using helpful visuals at times. She makes learning fun for my 11 yr old son, who is complete beginner/newbie to German.

Passionate and Professional Tutor
I had a very positive tutoring experience with Janee. She has lived in Germany for many years and is able to provide a very authentic perspective of how Germans talk and go about their daily lives. Janee is always passionate and professional, which made it a pleasure working with her. She is very attuned to the particular needs of the students and is invested in their learning growth.

An excellent teacher!
She gets me to speak and she corrects my frequent mistakes appropriately, with a good balance of examples and explanation. We practiced vocabulary about several important subjects like shopping, ordering in a restaurant, traveling and so on. I learned very useful grammatical tips.

Friendly and Practical
She was to the point and explained what the current problems with my dancing were. Also, she gave me an exercise I've been doing every day since then to strengthen my core, which will improve my dancing. Thanks, Janee.

I love Janee”s Teaching Techniques.
Justin says “I think she’s cool”. And I think that is an awesome beginning. Toward the end when Carter got involved, I think Justin got a little distracted. Thanks Janee, looking forward to next Saturday.
