About Elisabeth

Language Professional | Educator | Student & Family Support | Healthcare & Care Background

Elisabeth Wibmer

I'm Elisabeth Wibmer, founder of Sprachraum. My professional background brings together language and communication, education, student and family support, social and family care, and healthcare and nursing-related training. These connected areas shape the calm, practical and person-centred way I work.

Through Sprachraum, I work with private clients, businesses, students, parents, schools and international clients in South Africa and abroad.

My approach is warm, personal, and supportive. I work with empathy, patience, and attention to each individual's needs — combining practical guidance with genuine care.

Let's work together to help your language thrive.

Sprachraum means "language space" — a calm place for words, learning, guidance and growth.

Language & Translation Background

German is my first language and English my working language. I translate, proofread and write for businesses, professionals and private clients — from websites and brochures to business communication and social media. Alongside this, I offer personal German tuition from A1 to C2.

Student & Family Support Background

With a qualification in family and social care and healthcare and nursing-related training in Austria, I support children, teenagers, students and parents with learning pressure, motivation, communication and school-related challenges — calmly, practically and with clear next steps.

Student & Family Support

Healthcare & Care Background

My professional background also includes formal healthcare and nursing-related training in Austria, alongside my qualification in family and social care.

This experience has given me a strong understanding of care, communication, family dynamics and the importance of seeing the whole person rather than simply the immediate challenge.

Today, I bring this background into my work with students, parents and families at Sprachraum. It supports my calm, practical and person-centred approach, particularly when individuals and families are navigating stress, change, educational challenges or difficult personal situations.

My work through Sprachraum focuses on guidance, education, communication and practical support.
