Me as a Teacher
Apart from German, I speak English, French, Spanish fluently. I can also speak some Russian and Indonesian.
I'm a native German speaker from Saarbrücken in Germany, I moved around a lot during my childhood. This enabled me to acquire several languages very early on.
After traveling through Asia, Europe and America, I realized that learning languages is as important, or even more, than travelling to those countries. Since then, I have become a language enthusiast. learning languages has helped me conduct easy-to-understand, very creative and customized classes for students with diverse language backgrounds. Just read the reviews!
My lessons & teaching style
Lessons are either focused on language acquisition as a whole, or on a more specific objective as listed above.
If quick comprehensive acquisition of German is the priority, the lessons are divided in 3 parts:
1 /3 - Conversation:
We improvise talking about all possible subjects of interest to the student, and we`ll take vocabulary and grammar notes. I use those notes to produce quizzes like texts with gaps and crossword puzzles, and creative exercises like using those words in a personal diary or writing a small dialogue that includes all the new words. Everything adapted to the student`s fields of interest and priorities!
1/3 - Correcting
We`ll correct your diary, grammar exercises, creative texts, your test, etc. I`ll give you assignments based on those corrections.
1/3 Exploring
We`ll discuss a text, a grammar subject, the news, or a video together. More vocabulary, better grammar and syntax. Always more.
Please kindly consider:
✰ Cancellation / Reschedule Policy ✰
✅✅ ✅ No refund if the student doesn`t show up or reschedules with less-than-24-hours notice.
