Sessions: Immersion, Strategy & Conversations
How We Work Together
I help you build the right habits, stay motivated, and learn efficiently. Understanding language acquisition is key—I guide you to immerse naturally instead of relying on ineffective memorization.
We track progress, adjust strategies, and ensure steady improvement. My focus: practical application, consistency, and making German an active part of your life—while having fun along the way!
Each session has two main parts:
First, we briefly discuss immersion strategy—especially during the early sessions, when building a strong foundation matters most. We talk about what immersion means, how to apply it in daily life, and how to find content that’s not only comprehensible but also fun and relevant to your interests. I’ll help you identify the best German shows, podcasts, and other materials tailored to what you enjoy.
The second—and larger—part of the session is conversation in German. I adjust my language to your current level and personal interests. Early on, you’ll speak mostly in English, while I speak German, so you get maximum understandable input. This technique, known as crosstalk, allows your brain to absorb the structure and rhythm of the language naturally. As your comprehension improves, English will fade out, and German will take over completely.

To help you get even more value from our sessions, I now offer an optional audio summary after each lesson. This short recap, recorded with a natural-sounding AI voice, includes:

These summaries are excellent for immersion: they help you review key content, reinforce learning through repetition, and offer input that’s both familiar and comprehensible.
