Homeschooling.
We homeschool our own daughter while we live outside the German-speaking countries. The German does not stay by itself. Someone has to teach it.
That is the work I do with other families. A parent can cover math and still want a native speaker for reading, writing, and speaking. A homeschool co-op can need a German teacher for the language block, for one family or for a handful of children at a similar age. I partner with co-ops and with families teaching on their own.
I am not the whole school. I take the German. The parent or the co-op keeps the rest, unless we agree that another subject should be done in German too. Materials are for that child or that group. There is no download library on this site, and no catalogue to browse. Tell me the age and what the week needs to cover.
What the German time is for
Reading that matches the child’s speaking, not a textbook that is years too young or years too hard. Writing, grammar in the amount the writing actually needs, and speaking that is more than answering a parent at the dinner table. If you want a certificate later, Goethe, telc, or ÖSD can be the goal. Those exams are listed on the exam page. They are optional. A homeschool does not have to sit an exam to be worth doing.
Young children can start with story time, ages 2 to 5, and move into real schoolwork when they are ready. Children who already speak German and mainly need to keep reading with other children may fit immersion reading better than a full homeschool plan.
The first session is free, and it is an evaluation. Tell me the child’s age, what you already do at home, and whether you want lessons, materials, or both.
