My experience of teaching French in Germany is that the lessons are 45 minutes long, and you receive a relatively low fee. As far as I recall, I got DM 20 around 8 years ago.

Hi Karine,

If you want to teach here, try to find some business clients (industry), as language schools will probably pay you much less.
