The fear of speaking needs to fall in A1. Not later. Period.
Why am I so sure? Because I see it all the time: people come to us and say, “I did B1, but I still can’t speak.”
Sorry, but B1 is way too late. With us, you learn to speak. From the very beginning.
Many people don’t dare to speak because they never really got a chance to.
- Large classes leave little room for speaking – the loud ones talk, the quiet ones stay silent.
- In big groups – with 12 or 16 people – teachers can’t give everyone individual attention.
- Speaking? No time – the priority is finishing the textbook.
- Many give up too quickly and switch back to English – their comfort zone. But you don’t learn to speak in your comfort zone.
Hi, I’m Franziska!
An my team and I help you actually speak.
Because we do things differently: with us, you start speaking from A1.1. Not someday. Right away.
AND: I know how it feels to be scared to speak. Back in 2002, I sat in a bank in Bordeaux with four suitcases and only two French words: “Bonjour” and “je”. I felt helpless and stuck to German or English. Six months later, I sat in front of the same bank employee to close my account, and she said, “You’ve learned a lot of French!”
That feeling – going from silence to speaking – is the reason I founded SprachPassion. It’s what shapes our teaching and our course materials: designed to truly help you learn the language AND speak it.
Daring to speak changes everything.
What makes our courses different
Small groups with amaximum of 8 people.
Personalized, practical, and never off-the-shelf
The focus: Getting you to speak – helping you feel confident and build trust in yourself.
The Goal
Soon, you’ll respond in German without even thinking about it.
That’s what makes our work so rewarding – when someone just starts speaking, even with just a few words.
