About Bettina
Excellent track record in preparing

As a lecturer, I planned courses, devised university exams and carried out Goethe Institut exam testing. I have taught translation groups, general language and conversation classes. My teaching qualification and my experience have prepared me well for different learners and all kinds of classroom situations. I'm qualified, approachable, enthusiastic and patient.

Perfect! Excellent
Perfect! I successfully passed my German B1 Goethe exam in a compressed timeline, largely thanks to the focused, flexible, and effective tutoring that Bettina provided. She shared the best resources and provided the best feedback to enable me to learn most effectively
Perfect! Great initial lesson. Easy to chat and gently educational. Immediately boosted my confidence in German. Thank you!
Perfect! Understands my level and is very patient. Very good study relationship with Bettina. I hope to go further with my German under her tuition.
Perfect! Really enjoying my lessons with Bettina, I already feel like my speaking confidence has improved hugely! Can't wait to improve further. Bettina is really kind and communicative, would highly recommend her to any German learners.
Perfect! Bettina is a professional teacher, patient and friendly. Adam enjoyed the lesson very much. Bettina presented us with a summary what has been discussed and what the next step is going to be. Very impressive.
Excellent! Bettina is a lovely tutor, full of energy and enthusiasm. She is very knowledgeable, experienced and personable. As a native German speaker she has valuable information not only linguistically but also about the culture and geography of Germany which can be very useful.
Perfect! As a "Mature Learner" (age 69), I really struck lucky with Bettina, who I came across during a search of Superprof.
She's a good teacher, in that she's patient, she set me realistic targets and listened to my concerns throughout the learning process.
It's great that she actually comes from Germany as, as well as learning to speak German, she gave me a great insight into German culture and etiquette.
I would highly recommend Bettina to anyone who is thinking about learning German.- John is very diligent, learns fast and has made a lot of progress already. It is great to work with him. He will soon see the benefits of his learning journey.Bettina's response :
Perfect! I really enjoy my lessons with Bettina. She gives clear and in-depth explanations so you can really understand the german language. I find really useful the examples that she gives me and how she explains things. I definitely recommend taking classes with Bettina as she's proficient in every area. Thank you Bettina!
- As a professional tutor, I find it very enjoyable to teach Santiago German. He is extremely attentive and highly motivated. In just two lessons, he has already made good progress and I am confident that he will continue to do so. It is his clear goal to improve his German language skills and given his interest and his willingness to apply himself, he will be able to reach the goals he has set for himself.Bettina's response :

My boyfriend was preparing for his German exam with Bettina for 5 months and managed to get from A1/A2 to B1 and pass! Bettina was always accommodating, supportive and adjusted the lessons to what needed the most work and specifically prepared lessons to reflect the German exam he was preparing for. Highly recommend!!
She has been an excellent teacher! Within a short span of time helped my son to get his exams with fantastic scores. My son has been really happy with the way she taught him. Lessons were thorough and well structured. I would recommend her strongly
Bettina is a very reliable, conscientious tutor. She has a background in literature and linguistics and has herself been through the experience of learning a language from scratch several times, so also has the empathy that it takes to support language learners effectively. She is very experienced working with children of all ages. I would highly recommend her whatever your motive is for learning German.
Bettina is very a very thorough and conscientious instructor. She always focuses on what I need to improve on, and tackles it in a way that allows me to correct my mistakes as efficiently as possible. I now feel relaxed going into my exams.
Cheers BettinaI wholeheartedly recommend Bettina as a diligent and patient tutor with an exceptional grasp of language, both German and English. She is passionate about her subject and driven by detail. She also understands the challenges learners of foreign languages face, as she has wide and varied travel experience.
I’ve known Bettina many years, and she has long standing and wide experience in language learning and teaching. She focuses on keeping students motivated, coming up with imaginative and individual approaches to help her students progress. Bettina’s been in the UK for decades so she knows well the specific issues we English speakers face when adapting to German.
Bettina’s strength is imparting the information in a clear concise manner, which I have found very helpful. Bettina always takes time to ensure that I’m happy with the progress I’m making and is always happy to back over any topics if I feel I need an extra clarification. Overall I would be more than happy to recommend Bettina.
Bettina is a very patient and understanding tutor. She has never lost patience with me, enabling me to move on and succeed. She has successfully encouraged me to think in new ways. After some time, I understood areas I struggled with before.
She is a great tutor - I recommend her with all my heart! Thank you so much, Bettina!Bettina is really good at working to my level and challenging me without making the process stressful and always having fun, using interesting and relevant material and making me want to improve my German all the time.
Bettina's lessons are always stimulating! She quickly picks up on what you need as a learner and she gives excellent language support in all the skills. An inspiring and thorough instructor.
Bettina takes a real interest in all her students; she is patient, reliable, encouraging and a good listener. All her classes are tailored to her students' needs; she reassures her learners but also challenges them, so they continue to improve their language skills.
I highly recommend her!View more recommendations
