Welcome to GermanMind, your German
language school located in the heart of Dublin 2
Our journey began in 2016 when School Director Sarah Horn recognized the growing love for the German language and culture in Ireland. Fueled by her passion for her native language, Sarah envisioned a language school that prioritizes enthusiasm for German and makes learning an enjoyable experience.
At GermanMind, our ethos revolves around imparting German in a lively and supportive learning environment. We maintain small class sizes led by dedicated native German teachers.
Since 2016, we have proudly taught over 1000 students, achieving an impressive 75% retention rate as our students progress to higher levels.
With a maximum of 10 students per class, our experienced teachers devote more time to each individual. This personalized approach allows us to focus on specific areas, whether it's casual conversation with friends or preparing for a business meeting with colleagues.
We are GermanMind and we love teaching german. Here is why!

I love teaching German because sharing my knowledge about the German language with my students is so rewarding. Most of my private students have been learning German with me for several months or even years. They are more than students, they are friends; teaching is more than a profession, it's a passion.
GermanMind is like a small part of Germany but in Dublin; teaching German in Ireland feels like I am recreating a home away from home. I founded GermanMind to inspire, support and mentor people who are interested in the German language and in the German culture.

I love teaching German because I love helping people open new doors and achieve their goals.
Students often come with the assumption that German is especially hard to learn, but it doesn’t have to be – you’ll see! I’m always trying to make German more accessible and when students tell me, after just a few classes, how they ordered drinks in German during their trip, or how they sent a German text message to a friend or that they finally understand the lyrics to that German song they heard on holidays – those are my favourite moments.
And by making the language more accessible, a whole new culture becomes more accessible too.

I love working with German because I have a passion for the German language and culture. Having lived, studied and worked in two different cities in Germany, GermanMind is like a little piece of Germany in Dublin that allows me to continue the experiences I had there.
It is very enjoyable working within a native German environment, where I can see students developing the same passion as me everyday!
Liza
Student Success Manager

I love teaching German because I enjoy sharing my knowledge as well as cultural aspects with others. The best part of my job as a teacher is when I see my students answering my questions more and more in German and I can feel their progress.
Since I work with a wide variety of people from different parts of the world and all kinds of cultures every day, no two lessons are ever the same.
I am very happy to teach my students something new and to learn something new from at the same time.

I love teaching German because of my genuine interest in the German language and our language skills in general. I want to share my enthusiasm with my students, and it is very important to me to create a learning environment that makes learning German an enjoyable experience and that everyone feels welcome. It makes me happy to be able to witness every student's language journey, for whatever reason you may come to GermanMind, be it studying for work, fun, or my favourite – love!

German Teacher

I love teaching German because it allows me to share my culture with people from around the world. I also love inspiring my students to develop an interest in the language. It’s especially rewarding to hear that my lessons have helped someone to settle in Germany or to just gain a deeper appreciation for German culture. Knowing that I can make a small difference in my students' lives makes teaching this language even more fulfilling.
Cedric
German Teacher

I love teaching German because it is more than just sharing vocabulary and grammar, it’s about opening doors to new perspectives. Language is a powerful tool; it doesn’t just enable communication with a whole new group of people, it also shapes the way we see the world.
When I teach German, I’m not just teaching words, I’m helping someone connect with a culture, a way of thinking, and a different approach to life.
Ramona
German Teacher

I love teaching German because I'm fascinated by languages and language structures. I also have a deep interest in how learning happens, and I really enjoy finding ways to make German grammar easily understandable while creating fun and interactive lessons.
Plus, I always learn something myself: meeting so many different people from around the world, getting to know their cultures and ways of life, and helping them progress and achieve their goals is such a rewarding experience!
