Hello and welcome to the Deutsch-Teixlerei!
My name is Olivia Teix and for many years I have been a passionate teacher of German as a foreign language,
where I support people in learning the German language and using it confidently – whether for work, studies, important exams or everyday life.
I was born in Lower Austria in 1989 and have lived for a long time in Graz, Berlin and now Vienna.
My enthusiasm for German has its origins in my musical and acting studies. Working with language in the theater has taught me how versatile it is - how it connects, moves and opens doors.
Today, however, I am no longer on stage, but after my training as a trainer for German as a foreign language (Berlin/2019),
I accompany you in my own courses, some institutes or privately to help you achieve your language goals.
On my various travels and at various stages of my life, I have experienced the diversity of cultures and have been fascinated by them, because that is exactly what makes German lessons so appealing to me: bringing people from all over the world together and using language to open up a bridge to new opportunities for them.
Even though I attach great importance to teaching and consolidating grammar and vocabulary, it is particularly important to me to show you how you can live and experience German in your own way.
With creative and practical methods, personal support and LOTS of fun, we will design your path to the German language together – regardless of whether you are just starting out or want to deepen and perfect your knowledge.
I look forward to welcoming you to one of my courses or a 1:1 coaching session in person or online!
