    Hi

    I'm looking for German grinds in Drumcondra or the surrounding areas. I have fairly good conversational German but still have difficulty with some areas of basic grammar, so I would be looking for someone who teaches beginners. If anyone's interested please PM me.

    Danke :)

I'm coming back to Dublin in a few weeks and will be available to give grinds at reasonable rates. I'm open to doing one-on-one tuition or group sessions, at my house or yours, whichever suits. I'll be living in Dublin about 20 mins walk from Trinity so get in touch if you're interested. I don't have an irish phone right now but my german number's +4917653440563and my email's mcelwelb@tcd.ie

    Thanks

    I am based in the mid-louth area and am looking for lessons in German. As I visit the country 3-4 times per year it would be nice to one day have proper conversations with some of my German friends who aren't equipped with the English language. I have very basic German at the moment, from one year's 'study' at school (14 years ago!) and some recent online courses. I am willing to travel within the Louth area if there is anyone available?

    Hey!

    Still looking for a grinds teacher? I'm available, but I live in Dublin city centre. It's kinda unhandy, I know, but maybe we could do a longer class every two or three weeks so the travelling isn't too strenuous. I'd do you a good deal! Let me know what you think. We can negotiate the price. Drop me an email to Modedit email removed, please use pm if you're interested :)

    I am a German native, living in Dublin since September 2004 and fluent in English as well, because I speak English since 1980 and had English included in my A Levels.

    I could offer grinds in German from the middle of January on for both students and adult learners, and all over Dublin City...but please not too far away from Dublin 5 ;)

    Rates: €20-25 per hour, I would say.

    Hi there,

    I'm a final year Law and German student at trinity. I've spent almost 2 years living and studying in Germany. I have spent time working for a German company translating new German legislation into English so I am very familiar with grammar and written German and am able to explain it quite clearly. I've just spent the past year studying German law at a university in Berlin so the language is fresh in my mind.

    I have given grinds to second level students in the past so I am very familiar with the junior and leaving certificate courses and what is required of the students in order to do well.

    Very reasonably priced - 20 euro per hour. Quite flexible time-wise. Available from September onwards, in the city centre.

    If you would like to know more you can send me a PM and I will get back to you!
