German Lessons Edinburgh

Liza is a native German speaker from Düsseldorf. After studying linguistics and engineering

she travelled with Cirque du Soleil where her passion for coaching, teaching and

multilingualism was born. She came to Scotland in 2011 after working in a variety of

countries exploring, learning and using different languages. It is for this reason she

understands and empathizes with the challenges of learning a new language.

She now lives in Edinburgh with her partner and two children who they have raised to be

bilingual.

Liza has been working as a teacher for over 10 years, teaching in a variety of settings from

group classes and business classes through to private on to one tuition covering both adults

and bilingual children. She has gained the experience needed to create a relaxed, fun but

effective teaching method that enables students to become fluent in a short time. She

understands that learning a language is personal and everyone learns differently. She likes to

tailor lessons to suit the particular needs of each student.

Liza also offers coaching sessions for multilingual families and works closely with parents

and caregivers helping them to find strategies to make their own personal bilingual or

multilingual journey successful, irrespective of the chosen language(s).
