I’m Dr. Rebecca, with a Ph.D. from Harvard and over twelve years of teaching experience. I specialize in conversation practice, grammar made simple, pronunciation coaching, and reading real literature and culture with confidence. I am also a specialist in music history! My lessons are lively, creative, and tailored to your goals, whether you’re preparing for exams, studying abroad, or just want to speak naturally.
Over the past twelve years, I have taught German language, literature, and culture at multiple universities in the U.S. My teaching spans beginner to advanced German (A1–C2), with a special focus on communicative fluency, cultural literacy, and confidence in speaking and writing. I use an immersive, creative, and structured approach that blends real-life communication with the exploration of art, film, and literature. Grammar is always taught in context and reinforced through conversation, storytelling, and authentic materials.
