Katja Priess

After graduating with a master's degree in Languages, Literature, and Education from the University of Cologne in Germany, I moved and settled in Palo Alto, California.

Inspired by my love for the word and creative thinking it comes natural to me to bring creativity and spontaneity to the classroom. Breaking down complicated structures to comprehensible smaller bites, removing blockages and concerns, keeping the learning progress in a constant state of flux – all this helps the students to enjoy their journey of diving deeper into a foreign language and different culture and gain confidence in their language skills.

​

Awarded German Language Teacher of the Year 2020/2021 by Alto International School in recognition of outstanding contributions to the social, emotional and academic growth of her students.

​

We are happy to assist you in any way to develop your full potential during the course of your German studies.

​

Mit herzlichen Grüßen,
