Ready for the adventure of learning German?

My name is Lara Riklin and I look forward to taking children and adults on an exciting journey into the world of the German language. As a young, experienced primary school teacher (1st - 6th grade), I not only have the pedagogical skills but also the passion to help students learn German in an engaging way. I currently live in Ghent, Belgium and offer German lessons online and in-person. The language of instruction can be English or German. I also have a B2 level knowledge of French.

My offer is mainly for children:

- Playful learning:
I believe that learning should be fun! I use creative and interactive teaching methods to teach the basics of the German language in an engaging way.
- Individual or group lessons:
Every person is unique. My lessons are designed to account for the individual needs and learning styles of each student to create an optimal learning environment.
- Experience
As a primary school teacher, I have taught children from different backgrounds. A safe and supportive environment is crucial for successful learning. With my patient manner, I create an atmosphere in which the pupils feel comfortable. It is important to me to stimulate learning with as many senses as possible.

As a native of Switzerland, I can also give students the opportunity to immerse themselves in the cultural and linguistic diversity of Swiss German.

Looking forward to getting to know you!
