Personal Description:
I'm a qualified secondary school German teacher based in South Dublin / North Wicklow with over 20 years' experience teaching in both Ireland and Germany.
Tutoring Experience:
With native-level fluency in German (speaking, writing, and pronunciation), I specialise in preparing students for the Junior and Leaving Cert exams. I hold a Masters degree in teaching German and the highest CEFR level in German. Over the years, students who have begun online lessons with me have consistently continued with me throughout their exam years.
Parent textimonial:
"Sarah worked with our son for his leaving cert 6th year and we found here to be very pleasant and easy to deal with. In our sons words “She helped me through a very tough year and my German improved exponentially over the year and I highly recommend her”. Sarah's structured approach meant he was ready for the oral exam, the paper exam and the aural exam at exactly the appropriate times. She adapted to our sons’ particular needs based on his standard when she first worked with him. Overall our son’s appreciation and aptitude for German increased in the year he worked with Sarah. We are very grateful to Sarah." Clara, North Wicklow

Sarah has extensive knowledge of this subject and has a very happy and positive manner to how she teaches.
My daughter is happy with her progress so far.
Thank you for equipping Danny with the confidence in German that he will require on his return back to school. Your kindness and awareness of his situation was felt through your direct and clear approach to your lessons. You always stayed on track and had clear plans for each session with achievable homework. Having missed many school days in 5th year he will feel way more positive now as he goes into 6th year having had your tutoring to bring him up to a similar level to his classmates. Thank you.
We strongly recommend Sarah for leaving cert students
