- Arabic
- German
- English
- Finnish
- Greek
- Hindi

How does private tuition work
If you want to take private lessons, send us an e-mail. Please provide us with the following information so that we can forward your request to the right language teacher:
- Which language do you want to learn?
- What language level do you have and what level would you like to reach?
- Would you like to delve into certain topics/areas in particular (e.g. conversation, writing, grammar)?
- How many lessons would you like to take? How long should each appointment be? When and how often per week should the lessons ideally take place?
- Where would you like the private lessons to take place (at your home, in a café, online)?
After one to two weeks, a language teacher will contact you and you can discuss all further details.
Important information!
- You come to a (verbal or written) agreement for private lessons directly with the teacher and not with SKB.
- Private lessons cannot take place in the classrooms of the TU! You will not get a TU certificate!
- The private lessons are for Students from all over the world, employees of the Berlin universities and members of the TU Alumni Programs.
- You negotiate all conditions (dates, learning goals, price, material, etc.) with your teacher individually.
- Be sure to discuss until when you or your teacher can cancel an appointment.
- Make sure to clarify before whether there are any additional costs for travel time and/or materials besides the cost per appointment.
The following points are approximate guidelines (but you can agree on different rules with the teacher):
- Price per lesson unit (45 minutes): 25-35€ or 20€ per person in a group of two
- minimum number of lesson units: 6
- Private lessons for two are only possible if both people have approximately the same language level and would like to focus on the same topics/areas.
