    About me

    Hello! :)

    Are you looking to improve your pronunciation and express yourself in German in an authentic way?


    I'll be happy to help you with that!


    As a state-approved actress and speaker, I can help you to improve your pronunciation in German.


    I have a lot of experience with non-native German speakers as I have given theater courses to people from many different nations.


    On one hand, it was about speaking technique and training the muscles in the mouth to improve articulation.


    Above all, however, to lead what is said into an authentic speech melody. Small acting exercises can help with this. ;)


    I have been acting on theater stages for 10 years and I also work as a speaker for audio books, among other things.


    I am very pleased to get to know you and to be able to guide you into authentic German in a playful way with ease and articulation training.


    Write me if you have any questions!

    I tailor the lessons to you!

    All the best!

    Magdalena


    Teaching experience:


    2014- 2015 Acting classes for non-native speakers at the European Theater Institute in Berlin


    2018-2019 Acting workshop focusing on pronunciation and public speaking

    at the Julia Stoschek Collection in Berlin and Düsseldorf


    2019 - 2022 One-to-One tuition for business leaders, focus on rehearsing speeches

    at The Minsk - Museum and Andwal Impact Consulting GmbH


    2022 Acting Workshop for Quantum Physicists

    at the Fraunhofer Institute


    Methodology:


    >>> First we do exercises with the body and the voice:

    - Relaxation of the body

    - Activation of breathing

    - Relaxation of the voice

    - Activation of the diaphragm

    - Vocal and speaking exercises with vowels

    - Work on the front tuning set

    - Activate articulation


    >>> Secondly we work on example words and sentences, using acting exercises to work on the naturalness of the pronunciation and the "sending", the purposeful speaking.

    It's also about how am I heard. How can I present myself.


    My lessons are mainly about connecting with the German language. You should take additional lessons for grammar and vocabulary training, as we focus on bringing the German language into a natural flow and minimizing your accent. :)


    I look forward to getting to know you and finding out how I can best support you during a trial lesson :)

    I'm happy to make suggestions and respond to your wishes!

      Magdalena is the BEST teacher in the field of pronunciation improvement! Thanks to her professional experience as well as her personal qualities, I managed to eliminate linguistic errors that had accompanied me for years in a very short time. Magdalena is very professional, has her own clear structure when teaching, yet she takes individual wishes and needs into account very carefully. She truly cares about my learning progress, sharing the joy of our joint success with me every time, which is correspondingly super motivating and supportive. Thank you, dear Magdalena!

      Magdalena is a really great teacher and person. 😊 I think her approach to improving pronunciation is unique to Preply! First, she tested my pronunciation and identified which sounds I have difficulty with. Then we practice them one by one with different exercises and integrate them into my speech. Magdalena is very dedicated and motivating and always supports me. Thank you very much!

      As far as pronunciation is concerned, Magdalena is well prepared (since she comes from the theater world and therefore has real and practical experience with pronunciation). Although she is often interrupted by me, it is very important that she has come structured with a text/plan to test my pronunciation problems in German without wasting time and to know how to create a work plan.

      Highly recommended! Thank you dear Magdalena, for the great hours. It’s fun and your tips and exercises are extremely helpful. We train both my High German and how to give presentations stress-free and professionally. In general, it can be said that you are extremely competent and your warm, loving nature sweetens the lessons. See you next week :)

      Magdalena's German lessons are unique. The pronunciation is the main focus and there is no deviation from the main topic throughout the classes. Improving pronunciation takes time and one can observe the improvement in the pronunciation with time during the lessons.

      Magdalena is a wonderful teacher for pronunciation exercises. She has a structure and she immediately identifies mispronounced letters. Then she creates a plan to improve pronunciation. Definitely a recommendable teacher.
