Helma is a rare gem that you seldom find. I have discovered her to be an authentic and genuine German tutor of the highest quality. It is a real education learning the German language, German culture and the “ German way” with Helma - sprinkled with her pearls of wisdom the experience is First Class! Vielen Dank Helma

A great find on FirstTutors. My daughter has had many lessons with her. She is really organised and prepares for every lesson. She researched the syllabus my daughter was following to make sure everything she taught was the correct content. My daughter is really pleased with the way she is taught as she finds Helma can adapt and explain things in several ways. We will continue with Helma until my daughter finishes her A level. Her German is perfect.

I am a mature student and have now had a series of lessons with Helma. She is patient and prepares meticulously for each lesson with interesting and diverse material. I have been pleased to improve the way I pronounce my German words and further develop my vocabulary and grammar. I cannot recommend her enough for her patience and consistent diligence.

Helma is an amazing tutor, each lesson is really enjoyable and she has really helped me improve my german. So far we’ve covered both grammatical and conversational skills and i thoroughly enjoy every single lesson! I’m really happy to have her as my tutor and i can’t recommend her enough to anyone else who wishes to learn german!!

Tutor response

You are great to work with, keen to learn, quick to pick up new grammar with the courage to use this new language in any subject area, not minding making mistakes. It really helps that you like the german language and that you are well motivated. Ich bedanke mich!

Helma has helped me progress very well with my German. She is patient and very good at balancing grammar lessons with more interesting topics and tailors my tuition towards the areas which I need to work on and also to the areas I'm most likely to use in business and social occasions. She has provided me with a lot of extra reading material in areas where I have interests. She has also helped tailor my homework around my working hours so that I can do as much as I can with the spare time I have. I would highly recommend Helma as a very effective German tutor.

Tutor response

Thank you very much Heinz for taking the time to reflect, these are great comments. I am glad that you are picking up the difficult German grammar which has happened because of your determined, intelligent and flexible approach. You always apply yourself fully to any given exercise and that is refreshing to witness! Vielen Dank!

Helma has very much helped me improve my writing, reading, speaking and listening skills, as well as my grammar. Always flexible even when my interests jump from simple topics in verb conjugation to complicated colloquialisms and longer essays. I can strongly recommend her as a tutor.
