All About Me
Background
-
I was raised in a German-speaking household. My father was a highly regarded engineer and my grandfather set the grounds for the first German university in Bogota/Columbia.
​Languages
-
I have lived in many foreign countries (Africa and South America) and understand the problems of mastering another language and culture.
​
​Personal career
-
After training as a foreign correspondent, with qualifications in English and French and a strong expertise of several other European languages, I spent many years working as an international customer success manager.
-
I decided to take a leap in 2016 and started my own school. I’ve always believed that languages open doors to the world, and I noticed how hard it was to find truly dedicated teachers. So, I set out to change that! Since then, I’ve been helping people build their language skills, connect across cultures, and grow their international careers.

I offer personalized one-on-one lessons, and I get to understand the unique needs of my students. I make learning an enjoyable experience by mixing grammar with German language discussions of day-to-day topics.

My recommendations
Doris is a great teacher. She is a great professional and is very empathic. She uses a proven methodology to teach German in a very effective and successful way. I've been able to improve my German skills significantly over the past 1,5 years and I am currently working with her on getting ready for the B2 exam. She is very flexible and knowledgeable, and I appreciate the personal approach Doris brings. Do you want to go fast? No problem. Do you want to take it a little slower? Fine as well. If you are seriously considering taking German lessons, look no further: Doris is one of the best. Highly recommended, 5/5 stars

I have tried multiple ways to learn the German language in the last few years: various schools, apps and tools. But learning the language with Doris was the best experience so far and that too by a long margin. Doris customizes her approach to suit the student, adapts the dialogue to make learning more interesting and is also great at spotting weak spots and providing special coaching to address them. With her training over Skype, I was able to ramp up my German language skills in a short period of time to pass the B1 test
