Bergstrasse Region

Private language lessons along the Bergstrasse

For more than 35 years, I've been teaching German and English to individuals and companies all over Europe, including along the entire Bergstrasse corridor - from Heppenheim and Bensheim through Weinheim, Zwingenberg, Lorsch and Bürstadt to Lampertheim, Viernheim and Mörlenbach.

The focus is on private one-to-one and small-group lessons: in person at my Heppenheim studio or conveniently online for learners anywhere between Darmstadt and Heidelberg.

Who learns with me here

  • Commuters along the Main-Neckar railway to Frankfurt, Darmstadt, Mannheim and Heidelberg
  • Employees of local manufacturers, logistics firms and mid-sized companies in the region
  • International specialists and their families who need German for work and daily life
  • School pupils and Abitur candidates from across the Bergstrasse
  • Adults who prefer flexible learning over fixed VHS semester schedules

What I teach

Business English

Meetings, calls, emails and negotiations for professionals in the Rhine-Neckar region.

Conversational English

Confident free speaking - for travel, assignments abroad and everyday life.

Exam preparation

IELTS, Cambridge and school English exams up to and including the Abitur.

German for newcomers

Structured progression from A1 to C1 for international specialists and families.

Why private rather than a VHS group course

  • Times that fit shifts, family and commuting - not the other way round
  • One-to-one attention instead of a 12-person group on mixed levels
  • Online from your home office, in person at the Heppenheim studio
  • No semester commitment - book for as long as you need to reach your goal
  • Materials built for your industry, school year or life situation
