Teachers in the German classes

In class the dedicated teachers help you to successfully learn German and to quickly improve your German skills.

Six teachers introduce themselves:

Mag.a Irene Groißböck

German teacher and specialist for exams and exam preparation

+ more infoIn my lessons it is most important to me that the participants learn a lot in a nice, relaxed atmosphere and use the language in situations that are as close to reality as possible. Learning German and of course grammar should be fun, this is crucial for motivation. I also want to take away the learners' fear of making mistakes, because you can learn a lot from mistakes. I studied German with a focus on German as a foreign language and have years of experience teaching German abroad. I have been teaching at the Deutschothek since 2017.

Klaus Prinz, BA MA

German teacher, team coach and recruiter, specialist for grammar courses

+ more infoIt is important to me that my lessons are interesting and useful for everyday life. I focus on a pleasant course atmosphere, good grammar explanations and plenty of time to speak. Fun should not be neglected either. I completed a university education (master's degree) as a trainer for German as a foreign and second language and have been teaching at the Deutschothek since 2014.

Sebastian Klikovits

German teacher and specialist for digital courses

+ more infoFor me, the most important thing in teaching is that all participants learn a lot and have fun at the same time. Humour in the classroom, to me, is the key to attention and concentration. I care deeply about motivating my participants and making them enjoy learning German. I have a qualification as a trainer for German as a foreign language and have been teaching at the Deutschothek since 2020.

Mag.a Sarah Castrian

German teacher and specialist for C1 and C2 courses

+ more infoI am convinced that German is no more difficult than other languages and can therefore be learned by anyone. All it takes is the right "tools", the courage to try things out and, of course, a lot of fun experimenting with the language. In my lessons, it is important to me to create a pleasant learning atmosphere in which we treat each other with respect. The focus is on competent and confident language use in formal and informal contexts. This includes, among other things, conducting conversations, understanding authentic listening and reading texts as well as writing your own texts such as emails, essays and comments. I completed a university course for German as a second language and hold a degree for teaching Spanish and Russian. I have been teaching at the Deutschothek since 2017.

Sandra Lupsic, BA BA MA

German teacher

Mag.a Sandra Monte

German teacher

+ more infoIn my classes I think it's important to support and encourage people in their linguistic advancement. The focus is on useful content for everyday (professional) life and topics that are based on the realities of life of the participants. A varied class with a lot of empathy, respect, know-how and humor is important to me. It is allowed to make mistakes and by experimenting with the language the fear of the (error-free) use of the language is to be alleviated. I am a certified DaF/DAZ teacher (University of Vienna) and studied linguist. I have several years of teaching experience in Italy and at the International Office of WU Vienna. I have been teaching at the Deutschothek since 2021.

Mag.a Mirjana Malovic

German teacher and recruiter, specialist for business German, legal German and German in medical professions

+ more infoIn my teaching, I attach great importance to linking the content of the lessons with the realities of my participants' lives - theory and practice always go hand in hand for me, as what is learnt should above all be applied in everyday and professional life. I am a qualified linguist and certified trainer for German as a second and foreign language and have been teaching at the Deutschothek since July 2019.
