"Natalie and her team have provided excellent German tutoring for my daughter. Very professional and always a pleasure to work with. Higly recommended!!!!!"
Nancy, USA – Expat in Deutschland
"My goal was to pass the Goethe C1 exam. Natalie prepared me specifically for this by working on exactly the content where I still had weak points. In this way, I was able to significantly improve my German in 3 months and to reach my goal."
Xigai, China – Expat in Düsseldorf
"When our family moved to Germany 18 months ago, we knew only a few German phrases and words. We were committed to fully immersing ourselves into the local culture and placing our children in the local schools. We learned of Natalie and because of her excellent reputation. Our daughter started the 4th Class in School when we arrived, and within a few months with Natalie’s help, she was speaking and understanding German well enough to be successful in her studies. She is now in her second term in the 7th class in Gymnasium… Our daughter is fluent, confident, speaks like a local with no accent, and has made close friends.
