About me
With a PhD in economic geography, I have experience with economic and scientific texts. I lived in Asia for 24 years, working in editorial and adult education there.
Since my return to Germany (2017), I have been using my training as a German teacher (at the Goethe-Institute in Singapore) for interactive group classes and individual lessons. My students come from all over the world and have different demands and expectations for their learning, which I am happy to adapt to. In addition to adults (incl. corporate clients), I also teach children. I have experience with the requirements of learning German at German high schools, and with those of international IB schools as well.
Testimonials
“ I have been learning Deutsch with Maren for 1 year and I can vouch that what ever level you learn with her, you will learn it at its best, especially the grammar. Her teaching methods are practical and easy to understand. Thank You Maren for making Deutsch lessons interesting for me."
Jayeeta Pramanik, India
“ The lessons with Maren helped me so much. I could practice German words that I learned from school, learn new things, and even play fun games. I want to thank myself for choosing to do this."
"Thank you Maren!"

“German class with Maren was very enjoyable and lively. Also, it was a very systematic class with useful contents in real life. So my German skills improved a lot and it helped me a lot to use German in real life. Besides, I was able to better understand the German culture and the German people."
Kyungbok Kang,
South Korea
Although I was not good at German, I improved my German a lot and gained confidence through classes with Maren. So last semester I got good grades on the school's German and was able to get promoted to a higher level class. This semester, I will have a fun and fruitful class with Maren, and I will work even harder

Learning with Maren has been so much fun, her lessons are always fun and relevant. We really enjoyed how flexible she is and how lessons can follow the book or focus on a particular topic that we’d like to know more about – like Christmas in Germany! She has really helped us be confident in speaking German, even when we make mistakes, and we now enjoy many conversations speaking German in the Hundewiesen! She is also just a super kind and thoughtful person who we enjoyed spending an hour and a half of our week with.
Georgia Underhill (U.K.) & Robert Hasselman (Netherlands)
Learning German with Maren helped me a lot while I was living in Germany,
because our lessons with her were comfortable, fun and useful.
She was very responsible and thoughtful during our whole lessons.
Not only is she a great teacher, but I also feel like she is a good friend.
