Introduction: Hallo/Salut/Hi, my name is Caroline Phillips. I am one of the two co-owners of LingualMuse and the Head teacher on the LingualMuse Language Team. I am trilingual in German, French, and English. I worked on two different continents and have lived in Germany, Britain, Belgium, and the US! I have worked in languages throughout my career, and I am always developing and improving my teaching methods, as I believe that learning is a lifelong event ! We work with students of all ages and language levels from Beginner to Advanced! A little about me: I was fortunate to work for the Foreign Service Institute as part of the State Department in DC. While I was there, I learned how to prepare a team of US delegates for their language assignments for their time serving the US government abroad. I was trained to teach German as well as French in a 9 month period, going from beginner to fluency, and successfully passing their government language testing. I really enjoy teaching dedicated and conscientious students that like learning fascinating and useful languages as much as me. I believe that well-kept language skills will enhance both your personal life and career. They expand your horizons and enable you to successfully connect with others around the globe. Watching our students succeed under my guidance and bringing out their best is my target 🎯, and my reward 🏆. About LingualMuse: We have been in business for four years. We mainly offer private classes but also have partner, semi-private and immersion events too. Classes are conducted using the ZOOM online meeting platform and we provide an open and online calendar for easy scheduling. Our growing team of Language Professionals now teach 9 languages! English (ESL with accent reduction if wanted). French. German. Spanish. Portuguese, Mandarin, Russian, Italian and Arabic Book an Introductory Package with us TODAY! Let us help you reach your language goals. We look forward to meeting you!

I have had the pleasure of working with Caroline for 2 years now, and I have nothing but great things to say about my German lessons with her! As a teacher, she always comes prepared for our lessons, and is always available to answer my questions in her free time as well. She has adapted our lessons based on my progress and it has helped me further develop my German. Lingualmuse as a company was always very supportive in helping me find a lesson plan that best suited my schedule and finances. I would highly recommend Lingualmuse and Caroline to anyone looking to learn a new language!

My language learning journey with LingualMuse has not only been fruitful, but enjoyable! I was impressed by Caroline’s resume who used to teach foreign languages to government officials with the State Department! She offers Zoom lessons for students worldwide. Caroline’s approach with teaching begins with carefully gauging students’ learning styles (visual, auditory, etc.) and then tailoring her teaching style accordingly. She then builds a solid foundation of language basics which allows for more effective retention as students progress. Caroline is also very friendly, patient, and flexible when it comes to scheduling. She also makes an effort to connect with her students on a personal level and fosters a relaxed learning environment! My lessons with her have resonated more than any language app I’ve ever tried. Caroline’s husband Joe is the company’s administrator and is also friendly and easy to work with. He is very flexible with payment plans and will work with students to build a plan that is both affordable and manageable! I could not ask for a better organization that I can depend on for learning a new language, and they have over a dozen other instructors who teach many other languages to choose from. I highly recommend LingualMuse to anyone around the world who wishes to learn a new language!

I had my first session for my son and it went pretty well overall. Both the coordinator Joe and my son’s teacher Caroline was professional and extremely nice. Unfortunately, my son changes his mind often and that is the only reason I’m not continuing with his lessons at this time. However, if anything changes I will definitely use this company!!
