Took her lessons before I went to Germany in 2022. Though I didn’t continue, she prepped me and provided me with great material and advice. I would recommend her and work with her again.

About Manuela Desotell
Since I am originally from Germany I know what it takes to have patience for a foreign language. I have been a tutor for over 6 years and a Substitute Teacher. I enjoy every minute of it. I do online and in person tutoring. I am located in South Carolina.I use a great textbook and a great Grammar book that everyone has liked so far and I give homework when needed. My hours are flexible and I am trying to meet your needs and demands. I also want to make sure if you do decide to take lessons make it a priority and not just on a whim. I spent a lot of time figuring out what’s best for the customer and I expect the same in return . If you are just looking to take a few lessons here and there please don’t waste your time. I am looking to teach long term so I can see the progress in every student. My main focus is to teach beginners level and I tutor on a personal level and simply to understand, College students are welcome and great with preparation for tests . I also offer discounts if booking 3 lessons or more altogether. My hours are Monday through Friday 9 am until 5 pm EST .Also in order to just get a first impression I prefer to do a free 15 minute Skype consultation to make sure that we are both a good fit. My cancellation policy is the following: 24 hours prior our lesson no charge, any time after I will need to charge for a full lesson. This is my primary job and I expect my students to be considerate and respectful of that. Thank you for visiting my profile.
Reviews
Genuinely happy to teach and ensures students understand the lesson.
Manuela is a great teacher! She always take the time to explain concepts to me, and I’ve been able to make a lot of progress with my German. She is also very nice and encouraging! Because I’ve been taking lessons with her, I’ve been able to learn much more than I would on my own!
So far it is going well, I am enjoying it very much
Manuela makes learning easy. She lets you learn on your pace. Throughly going through the work books. Never in a rush. Also educate’s on Regions of Germany itself.
Manuela is a fun tutor/teacher. The book she uses is succinct, and offers some of the best explanations I have seen when it comes to grammar. As long as you have Manuela at your side as you go through, you'll be speaking good German before you know it!
I have been working with Manuela since November and have very much enjoyed our weekly German lessons. She is fun, exceedingly patient and happy to clarify any questions I have. I am preparing to travel to Germany, and our lessons have been split up between grammar, vocabulary, and conversation. It is a very thorough and helpful lesson plan! I highly recommend Manuela to anyone who is interested in traveling to Germany or just looking to learn this beautiful language.
I have been taking German lessons with Manuela for about two months and I have really enjoyed my time! I am preparing to live temporarily in Germany and needed to learn German. Manuela is very kind and personable, and always asks about my preparations for my trip. She does a great job of gauging your skill level and tailoring the lesson based on your abilities and progress. Even though german can be confusing at times, Manuela instills confidence in me. I highly recommend her as a German tutor!
Manuela is the best! Don't sell yourself short. Hire a Teacher with the passion for language, quality lessons on a set schedule, and a genuinely sweet person to work with. If you want to hire a professional and boost your proficiency in German, She is the best on here.
Manuela didn't commit to our schedule and kept rescheduling because she's not at home. Had hard time communicating and she ended up ghosting me. :/
