Last position:

Calia Akademie GmbH

  • Since October 2025, we have been working successfully with omaria GmbH in the area of digital continuing education and artificial intelligence.
  • What initially began with the design and production of learning and training videos developed into a broader collaboration: Since February 2026, omaria GmbH has also been supporting us in delivering our continuing education program “Digital Manager - für KI, Tools, Online-Marketing und Vertrieb”.
  • Mr. Stefan Thomann, Managing Director of omaria GmbH, personally managed the services and was responsible for both the technical and didactic design as well as the delivery of the live online training sessions.
  • So far, around 21 hours of video-based learning material have been created as part of the collaboration.
  • In addition, Mr. Thomann conducted around 60 teaching units of live online training for two cohorts.
  • The learning videos he created continue to be part of our online course.
  • In terms of content, Mr. Thomann covered a broad range of current and practically relevant topics. These included the professional use of ChatGPT and generative AI in everyday business, prompting and AI-supported text creation, deep research and AI agents, the design of custom AI assistants and Custom GPTs, as well as AI-supported image and video generation.
  • These topics were complemented by digital productivity and administrative tools and numerous specific application scenarios from different business areas.
  • It is particularly worth highlighting that Mr. Thomann takes on responsibility far beyond his role as a trainer.
  • He was fully responsible for the technical and didactic design of the sessions, the development of training materials and exercises, as well as the selection and preparation of suitable practical examples.
  • He was very successful in translating current technological developments into clear, application-oriented learning content.
  • As a trainer, Mr. Thomann stands out in particular for his ability to explain complex AI topics clearly and vividly and consistently connect them with specific use cases from everyday professional life.
  • His live online training sessions are interactive, practical and designed to support sustainable knowledge transfer.
  • He handles participants with different levels of prior knowledge and professional backgrounds in a confident and assured manner.
  • On both an organizational and personal level, we also experience Mr. Thomann as a competent, reliable and professional contact.
  • His high level of flexibility and proactive approach, including bringing his own ideas and suggestions to the collaboration, are also particularly noteworthy.

About the role

What they do

A lecturer designs and delivers structured learning for a clear audience. In freelance work, that may mean university teaching, corporate training, guest lectures, seminar facilitation, or short-course delivery. The best lecturers turn complex topics into clear sessions, support discussion, and adapt the pace to the room.

Typical deliverables

  • Course outlines and session plans
  • Slides, handouts, and reading lists
  • Live lectures, seminars, and workshops
  • Exercises, case studies, and group tasks
  • Assessment input, feedback, and exam support
  • Updates to existing teaching materials

Skills and tools

Strong lecturers combine subject depth with clear delivery. They can explain, structure, and keep attention without losing accuracy. Many work with LMS tools such as Moodle, Canvas, or Blackboard, and with presentation and collaboration tools used for hybrid teaching.

  • Clear spoken and written communication
  • Curriculum and session design
  • Audience adaptation for students or professionals
  • Confidence with online and in-room teaching
  • Feedback, moderation, and learner support
  • Strong command of the subject area

When companies hire one

Companies bring in freelance lecturers when they need specialist knowledge for a course, a workshop, or a short teaching block. This is common in universities, academies, professional education, and internal L&D teams. In Germany, clients also look for lecturers who can teach in English, German, or both, depending on the audience and the program.

What sets a strong lecturer apart

A strong lecturer is more than a presenter. They manage time well, answer questions clearly, and keep the level right for the audience. They also prepare carefully, handle feedback well, and can work with academic teams, HR, or training leads without much guidance.

  • Experience with real teaching or training settings
  • Material that fits the audience and learning goals
  • A calm, structured delivery style
  • Ability to teach live, hybrid, or remote
  • Fast adaptation to new topics or formats
  • Reliable follow-through on preparation and revisions

Lecturer, instructor, or trainer?

The title can vary by context. In higher education, people usually say lecturer or adjunct lecturer. In business settings, the same person may be called an instructor or trainer, especially when the focus is workshops, onboarding, or professional development. What matters is the actual teaching task, not the label.

Frequently asked questions

Everything clients usually want to know about Lecturers, in one place.

A lecturer usually plans and delivers teaching for a defined audience. That can include lectures, seminars, workshops, guest sessions, learning materials, and feedback on assignments or presentations. In practice, the scope should be tied to the course goals, the audience level, and the delivery format.

A freelancer makes sense when the teaching need is temporary, highly specialized, or tied to a specific program. Many clients use a freelance lecturer for a guest block, a short course, or a subject where internal staff do not have the right depth. It is also practical when you need quick availability or flexible scheduling.

A strong lecturer combines subject expertise with clear teaching methods. Look for structured communication, confident delivery, good classroom control, and the ability to adapt content to the audience. For corporate work, they should also be comfortable with workshop formats and practical exercises.

The words often overlap, but the context is different. A lecturer usually works in academic or formal learning settings, while a trainer or instructor is often used for professional development, onboarding, or hands-on skills sessions. Many freelancers can do all three if the topic and audience match their background.

Yes. A lecturer can often deliver content remotely, especially for theory-heavy sessions, Q&A, or hybrid programs. On-site work is still common in universities, executive education, and company training rooms in Germany, where live discussion and group work matter.

A good brief should state the topic, target audience, language, teaching format, session length, and expected output. For a lecturer, it also helps to share existing materials, learning objectives, and any assessment or exam requirements. The clearer the brief, the easier it is to find the right fit.

Start with evidence of real teaching delivery, not just a CV. Ask for sample materials, a short outline, or feedback from previous teaching assignments, if available. A strong lecturer can explain how they handle difficult topics, mixed skill levels, and questions from the room.

Most want to know the audience, the subject depth, the delivery format, and how much material already exists. A professional lecturer will also ask about goals, language expectations, preparation time, and who approves content. That helps avoid vague scope and ensures the session fits the program.

The average hourly rate for Lecturers in Germany is 110 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 879 € based on an 8-hour working day.
