Karin

I am originally from Cologne in Germany but have lived in Macclesfield since 1982. I enjoy teaching and sharing my passion for languages and foreign cultures. Bilingual in English and German, I also speak French fairly fluently, understand Dutch, know enough Spanish to get by on holiday and currently I am attending a course in Modern Greek. I love travelling and good food, am passionate about yoga and generally enjoy the “Good Life”.

My lessons are tailored to meet the needs of individuals. I can teach for exam preparation, revision, leisure and business. My aim is to make lessons as interesting and relevant as possible and to ensure that students achieve their full potential. While I favour a fun and relaxed approach, I strongly believe in the importance a good grounding in grammar.
I prefer to tutor at home.
N.B. I am currently unable to accept new students.

Availability: Weekdays - any time to suit

Willing to travel: Home Only

Experience: I worked as a language assistant at UMIST (University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology) for 3 years. I taught (and examined) grammar and spoken language and my students ranged from complete beginners to final year students. I also have several years experience of teaching on a one-to-one basis.
