Goethe-Institut Deutsch TikTok

About the project

Goethe-Institut Deutsch is a platform created by the Goethe-Institut, offering German learners short, engaging and lighthearted video content on TikTok and Instagram. With expert knowledge and humour, the host Alex explains tips, tricks, and explanations that will steadily improve knowledge of vocabulary, grammar and culture.

Project responsibilities:
Team lead, budget management, strategy, and digital content production

When I joined the Goethe-Institut London as an Online Editor in June 2021, I became head of production for Goethe-Institut Deutsch - a flagship digital project with 281.1k followers and 2.1m likes on TikTok, and 251k followers on Instagram. As project lead, I managed a team of in-house German teachers, our host Alex, and a Berlin-based video production company.

Drawing on my own experience of learning German as a foreign language, I helped shape episodes to ensure they were engaging and accessible for a global audience. My core responsibilities included coordinating planning meetings, scriptwriting, translating and proofreading English-language content, and producing and distributing social media packs.
