About me - Suzanne Sonnenschein
From San Francisco, over N.Y.C. to
Munich, Germany
Following extensive voice training, I decided to come to Munich to see what my chances are of starting a career. After having been here for one year,I became a member of the ensemble at the Bavarian State Opera. After that,I performed as a free-lance singer in German and international opera houses.
After this exciting career, and bringing up three children, I decided to focus on another passion, languages. I could incorporate my experience on stage, such as presentation, voice production,
and proper breathing etc.. An added advantage was my (almost) perfect German. A great help in translating and interpretation, and proper inflection. Therefore, I have been successful in training English for business and private use for many years.
From the international stage to global communication
Born in the beautiful city of San Francisco,in sunny California, then spent my youth and formative years in exciting New York City.
After my studies, I worked in various firms, such as advertising agencies, talent agencies and major cosmetic companies in N.Y.C.. After gaining a lot of experience,I decided to follow my dream of
becoming an opera singer.
My Offer
Be it for business or private use, everyone will be treated and supported individually, depending on
their level, needs and interests.
To master a language theoretically is one thing. However, to be able to communicate fluidly, in all walks
of life, is quite another thing. I will help you to reduce fear and inhibitions. Also, work on vocabulary and
pronunciation in a way that is not boring and repetitive. Without pressure, we talk about daily experiences,
and anything your heart desires, be it politics, history, philosophy, the arts, literature etc., in a relaxed
manner. Mistakes are corrected and explained, without disturbing the flow of conversation.
The goal is to aquire more confidence and security in speaking a foreign language. Also, to have fun and
enjoy. Important for your professional, as well as private life.
Experience
For approximately 15 years in teaching and training English
Stage Experience
Help in individual improvement of rhetorical issues
Native Speaker
As a native speaker,
I master all facets of the English language
German
I am absolutely fluent in German, in writing, as well as in speech
Face to Face & Online
I prefer face to face, since I have found it to be more effective.
A nice and comfortable atmosphere in the heart of Munich- Schwabing. A cup of tea or coffee. A lively
American woman, in her best years, with a touch of Bavarian flair. That is what awaits you.
However, if this isn´t possible, due to personal or logistic reasons, it is also possible to book
online sessions.
Lessons can be scheduled flexibly, according to availability.
Are you involved in negotiations, or must prepare a presentation? Are you going on a business trip or conference, and need to prepare yourself? Perhaps a job interview in English? I will help and prepare you in every way.
Business
Perhaps you would like to converse on a higher level while traveling. You want to express yourself better. Share experiences and interests with others, in order to make the trip more memorable and
satisfying. Together, we can work on it, and reduce your fears.
Private
You are in the University, and need to work on your thesis, or have it corrected. I can help.
Education
You have a casting in English, and need help in preparing for it? Or you´re a song writer, and need to go over some lyrics, using the correct inflection and pronunciation? Looking forward to exciting and artistic sessions.

When I met Suzanne for the very first time my feeling said “this is exactly what I was looking for” and I was completely right since we have been working together on my English for a couple of years now. I highly recommend Suzanne for anybody who looks for an English teacher with competence combined with healthy dose of flexibility and great sense of humor.
