About Me

Hello, I'm Anna Baumgartner, a Vienna-born language enthusiast and teacher! My passion for languages and cultural exchange began early and has only grown. Learning Italian from scratch in Rome and engaging in language exchanges ignited my passion for teaching. I now teach German online to students worldwide, ensuring our virtual classroom connects us no matter where we are.

With over 10 years of teaching experience, including 3 years specialising in Business German, I have had the privilege of working with professionals from top companies like Roche, Bayer, and Nike. I tailor my lessons to meet each student's unique needs, focusing on effective communication and industry-specific terminology.

My teaching approach blends structure with flexibility, ensuring lessons meet your unique needs and goals.
