Hi! I'm Kate, a linguist and tutor from the UK (MA in Medieval and Modern Languages from St John's College, Oxford).
My small team of tutors and I offer complete German courses for A Level, so you can study for the qualification with us online.
Our courses offer all of the support and resources that a school classroom provides, plus regular tutor contact and immersive learning experiences to give you the confidence to speak and write German fluently.

About Kate
I started my teaching career in 2008 with the Government of Andorra, where I held the post of Lecturer of English.
Since then, I have taught privately and at colleges in several European countries: Germany, Austria, Spain, Portugal and Italy.
In 2019 I opened a language school in Petersfield and an online academy, with a small team of tutors and a mix of students learning for professional, academic and personal goals.
We specialise in GCSE and A Level language qualifications and can help you choose the best route to obtain the certification you need for careers, university entrance or further study.

Your Online A Level in German
The A Level is the most prestigious academic qualification for school leavers in the UK.
Students usually take this qualification at the end of year 12 (age 18). A Levels, or their equivalent, are a requirement for entry to British universities. They are graded from A* (highest) though to E (lowest). Generally, only around 19% of students achieve the top grade.
The number of students opting for A Levels in Modern Languages is declining sharply year-on-year.
Taking a modern language enables a student to follow their own academic interests and showcase a range of transferable study skills. It also sets a student apart from their peers and opens up a world of career possibilities.
