My German lessons with Bella have been nothing short of amazing. Having struggled with my speaking confidence, fluency, and grammatical accuracy prior to attending the lessons, Bella’s tailored, patient, and friendly approach has helped me massively over the last 10 months to help me prepare for my German A-level. She always paid attention to my individual needs each session and devised appropriate activities and lessons to help me. I cannot recommend Bella enough to anyone looking for exam prep or improving general fluency in German! I enjoyed my lessons so much that I’ve decided to continue conversational sessions to help keep my German refined. Tom

I can’t believe how lucky we have been to have had Bella recommended to us to tutor our son for his German A level. She has been an absolute tonic for our son. Her approach to teaching is professional yet incredibly kind. Being German herself, she is able to teach in a way that is so much more relevant to the subject as a whole and this has been invaluable.  I can honestly say that our son has actually looked forward to every lesson with Bella. It’s difficult to put into words how she does it,  but she has managed to provide such a rounded approach to teaching German, that his lessons haven’t felt like a chore at any stage.  She is incredibly understanding and adapts to the individual whom she tutors, and for this reason I believe this is why she succeeds. His teachers at school have been so impressed with how much he has improved since having lessons with Bella. I honestly don’t know what we would have done without her and I am delighted to say that she has inspired our son to want to continue his lessons after his A levels.  I would not hesitate to recommend Bella to anyone searching for a German tutor. She really is simply put, just brilliant. Thank you for all that you have done. Isobel Palmer

I had been looking for a German tutor for several months and was recommended to Bella by a friend in my local area. I have now been learning German with her since June '25, and it's been a really good experience and good fun. From the start, the lessons, whether face to face or via internet chat, have been very supportive, relaxed, and tailored to my level. This has made a huge difference to my confidence when speaking to people. Bella is incredibly patient and always takes time to explain things clearly, especially grammar, which I used to find intimidating and I struggled with it. I genuinely feel I am making progress, not just in understanding German but in using it. I always come away from each lesson feeling motivated and positive, and honestly look forward to the lessons every week. I am immensely grateful to Bella's guidance and would highly recommend her to anyone wanting to learn German in a friendly, positive and encouraging way.

Dear Bella, We wish to pass on our immense gratitude for the work you have put in with our son over the course of his final year at A-level. His confidence with and enthusiasm for German has increased immeasurably as a result. This is something that not only we have observed, but also his teachers at school and his peers. We thank you dearly for this and most certainly would not hesitate to recommend your services to anyone who seeks to advance their German. Our thanks and very best wishes, Mr and Mrs J

I have become more confident and comfortable speaking German since I began doing lessons with Bella. My teachers have noticed the difference in such a short period of time.

Bella is an amazing tutor, she is kind, patient, encouraging & funny. When I explained to Bella, that my daughter was blind & learnt in a slightly different way, she met Gabi with an open mind & has adapted her teaching style accordingly. I would highly recommend Bella to anyone looking to learn or improve their German.
