I've lived in five countries and learned five languages as an adult, which gave me a clear picture of what really works when acquiring a new language, each one experienced from the inside, in real-life contexts.
I've lived in Italy, China, Spain, France and the UK, and every time I had to start over, make mistakes, find shortcuts, figure out what actually sped up the process.
Teaching is my way of putting all of this to good use.
One of the most formative experiences of my life was travelling for over 400 days across Asia.
During that time I came to understand that language is only part of something bigger, and that what really connects people is genuine curiosity about one another.
Ich als Lehrkraft
What learning so many languages has taught me is that grammar alone doesn't get you very far.
You acquire a language when you start using it, even imperfectly.
My role is to create the conditions for that to happen as soon as possible. I'm demanding enough to help you make progress, but never in a way that puts you under pressure.
I correct with judgement, focusing on what genuinely gets in the way of communication and leaving room for spontaneous expression.
I've worked with students at very different levels and I adapt my pace and register to whoever is in front of me.
Most students go from A1 to B2 within a year to a year and a half with one hour of practice per week.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
Every lesson starts from where you are, not from a standard plan.
Before we begin I take the time to understand your goals, whether that's everyday conversation, professional language or exam preparation, and I build the path accordingly.
I work a great deal with exposure to the language in real contexts, because that's how natural acquisition works, the same way we all learned our mother tongue as children.
Lessons are conversational by nature, with targeted input on vocabulary or grammar structures whenever needed. The materials I choose are always based on you.
If we already share a language, we can use it as a bridge into the one you are learning.

Dear Teacher Niko,
Thank you so much for today's Italian lesson! Your teaching is wonderful and very professional! Thank you for patiently correcting my Italian pronunciation and explaining the meanings of the vocabulary. This lesson has been a great help to my daily Italian conversations. I hope more and more students will learn Italian with you on Italki in the future! Good luck!
Wishing you peace, Teacher Niko, thank you very much!

I really enjoyed the lesson. We spoke French, Italian, and English all at the same time, which made it very engaging and dynamic. The teacher was very enthusiastic and clearly eager to teach, which made the learning experience even better. I felt comfortable and motivated throughout the session.
