The promise
By Christmas 2026, you'll order coffee in Berlin without rehearsing it first.
Eight weeks of live cohort classes, peer practice between sessions, and real conversations with native Germans. Here's what that gets you.
Hold a five-minute conversation
Introduce yourself, order food, ask for directions, talk about your day — without rehearsing it first.
Read German menus, signs and headlines
Decode everyday German in the wild. You stop avoiding the German parts of the internet.
Understand short emails and messages
Reply to a landlord, a colleague, a new German friend — with grammar that actually works.
What's included

Peer Practice
Learn with, not just from.
Every week you're matched with a cohort peer for a 20-minute video call. There's also a weekly open group call — casual, no agenda, everyone welcome.

Native speaker sessions
Real German, from real Germans
Textbook German only gets you so far. Every cohort includes two formats of native speaker exposure — watching authentic speech and actually having live conversations with Germans.

Watch & Discuss
Every two weeks your cohort watches a short native German video together — then dissects it live with your teacher.
- Curated German talks, interviews & short films
- Real accents, real speed — no textbook German

Live Guest Session
Twice per cohort a native German speaker joins your live class. A real conversation — not a scripted exercise, a genuine human exchange.
- Native speakers join your live session
- Have a real conversation with a stranger in German
- Different guests each cohort — varied backgrounds
Community practice
Practice with real people — your cohort
Between live sessions you practice with your classmates — through a weekly assigned partner and an open group conversation club. No extra cost, no scheduling chaos.

Who you'll learn with
Two real humans. No faceless ops team behind them.
For the founding cohort, this is who you're actually trusting with your eight weeks.
Co-founder
Pavel García
I built Tuelang because every German class I'd taken treated me like a textbook, not a person. I'm running the founding cohort personally — answering your application, joining your live sessions, checking in twice during the eight weeks. If something isn't working for you, you'll be talking to the person who can change it.
“I want you to remember this cohort.”
Your teacher & Co-founder
Dariia Shchuka
TODO(pavel): 2–3 paragraphs. Where they trained, where they're from, how many years they've taught German, what their classes actually feel like. Voice should sound like them, not marketing.
“TODO: one short line in their voice.”

Our approach
Why this method actually works
Most people fail at language learning not because they're not smart — but because the method was wrong. Here's what we do differently.
Speak from day one
No passive memorisation. From your very first session, you're talking. Stumbling is part of it — that's how the brain locks things in.
“Ich heiße…”— your first sentence
Real feedback, not algorithms
A real teacher listens to how you sound and corrects what actually matters — something no app can replicate.
“Gut, aber…”— the correction that sticks
Vocabulary that fits your life
You won't memorise the horse drinks milk. You'll learn to order coffee, navigate Berlin, and talk about your job.
“Einen Kaffee, bitte.”— actually useful
Spaced, structured repetition
Every week builds on the last. Concepts return in new contexts so they move from short-term memory to real fluency.
“Wieder und wieder.”— until it clicks

Cohort #1 · transparency
This is our first cohort. Here's what that means for you.
We don't have alumni yet. We don't have testimonials. We're not going to pretend otherwise. We do have a smaller-than-normal price, a smaller-than-normal cohort, and the founder in every session.
Founding price, locked for life
Early founder pricing — and any future cohort you join with us maintains this rate. Forever.
Direct line to the founder
I personally read every application, run the intro call, and check in twice during your eight weeks. If something is off, you tell me.
You shape what comes next
The cohort after yours will be better because you were in this one. We share what we learn from you with the next group.
Founding cohort pricing
€399. Locked in for life.
Cohort 2 onward is at standard price. If you join us now, every future cohort you ever take with us is also at founding rate — forever.

How applications work
This isn't open enrollment.
We're capping this cohort at a small number of seats. We may decline applications that aren't the right fit — for your sake, not just ours.
01
Apply
Five minutes, four questions. Tell us who you are and why now — that's it.
02
15-minute intro call
We talk, you ask anything, we both decide if this is the right fit. No pitch deck — a real conversation.
03
Decision within 48 hours
A clear yes or no from us after the call. If yes, you choose pay-in-full or installments and you're in.
Applications close when seats fill or the deadline passes — whichever comes first.
