About The Founder

I’m David Williams, founder of DeutschMed Academy, where language meets opportunity. My journey with the German language began over 32 years ago in Switzerland, where I first studied and developed a deep appreciation for its culture and precision. I have been teaching German for many years, and what began as a personal passion gradually evolved into a purposeful business — empowering nurses and medical professionals to build fulfilling careers across Germany, Austria, and Switzerland (the D.A.CH. region). Today, through a blend of expert German training, career guidance, and relocation support, I help healthcare professionals confidently step into new lives and brighter futures in the German-speaking world.
