What our students say:
Patxi Jaime
Silvana's exercises were always very fun and practical and she always had an explanation for my grammatical doubts. She uses playful means and repetitions that allowed me to learn the language very quickly and naturally. I can now communicate with German people, which was my main goal. I recommend her 100%.
Jay Wang
I enjoyed learning German with Silvana. It's fun with her and we talked about lots of interesting topics. So I can say that I have not only learned German, but much more.
She has the ability to adapt perfectly to the student's needs and is very professional - top!
Paula Thornburrow
Silvana has been my online German teacher for several years. During this time she has been so professional that I have recommended her to my friends, family and boss. We are very happy to learn German from A2-C1 with Silvana.
Recommendations
I am English and have lived in Switzerland for years. I took German lessons in a group, but I was frustrated with my progress because I didn't speak enough and a friend recommended Silvana. We meet once a week via Skype and talk about everything in German. Her friendliness and flexibility, along with her knowledge as a language teacher, is a great combination for me and I'm seeing a real improvement in my vocabulary, fluency and confidence.... And I am more interested in communicating in German!
Victoria Feller
I would definitely recommend Silvana as a German teacher.
She has been teaching me for more than four years now and everything has worked out perfectly. She is consistent, takes her work seriously and explains the grammar very well. Another aspect that is very important to me is that she is a native speaker.
She also speaks English and Spanish, which complements her very well as a specialist.
Rosa Gónzales
She is a wonderful teacher, very professional and attentive, she adapts very well to our age and learning abilities so that we do not stop learning the language and retain the knowledge we have learned. We are very happy with her.

Hello everyone! My name is Maria and I come from Spain. When I arrived in Germany, I didn't know a single word of German. I took German lessons with Silvana for several years and I would like to recommend you to learn German with her. I have not only learned German, but also other interesting things. She is always looking for interesting topics that we can talk about. So my German and also my vocabulary has improved very quickly and a lot. She is also very friendly and very patient. I hope you enjoy your lessons.
MARIA ROMEO
Silvana is a fantastic teacher who is always coming up with games and exercises to help us learn German in a fun way. With her, we practiced a lot of the conversation we were most interested in, but we also reinforced and better understood the grammar we weren't so good at. We would definitely recommend her. She is a great teacher.
