Hi there! Do you want to become fluent in German? Yes? - You can do it! And I think my classes will be perfect for you! I am a German native speaker from near Cologne, Germany and enjoy learning foreign languages very much myself. For many years now, I have worked and gained experience as a language instructor in Taipei, Taiwan. I would love to help you learn and improve your German too! So take your first step right now, book a session with me and let me accompany you on your journey to speaking German fluently!
Ich als Lehrkraft
Since 2006, I have been teaching German as a foreign language in Taipei, Taiwan to Chinese native speakers. Because I had had an interest in the Chinese language and culture for many years, in 2005 I moved to Taiwan to learn Mandarin Chinese. At some point during my stay I had to start looking for work and ended up teaching German at a local language center. Right from the start I loved teaching German and since then have kept on working as a language instructor with a passion, gaining experience over the years and keeping up with improving my skills and expanding my knowledge up to this day.

Here is what you can expect from me:
* professional lessons based on my experience of teaching German in the classroom since 2006
* a friendly atmosphere where you can feel at ease
* interesting conversations where you will speak a lot of German
* many tips, tricks, advice and learning strategies tailored to your individual learning style
* Grammar explained in a practical way to make you understand and get to use it quickly
* and, most important of all, helping you to make progress fast
Florian is a very experienced and patient teacher. A few things I really appreciate are - he encourages me to speak, always provides good conversational topics, and I’ve never felt pressured in class. He can also explain my mistakes in a way that is both conceptual and specific, so that I know what is wrong and what to avoid the next time.
I’ve been having classes with Florian since I was at A2, and now at B1 I’ve noticed a big improvement in my speaking. It’s always strenuous to wrangle thoughts into coherent sentences, but I’ve gotten quite a lot better at speaking spontaneously and reacting to other people on the fly 😀

I have had nearly 40 classes with Florian and, despite studying being an ongoing challenge for me, I've picked up quite a bit more vocabulary, and my ability to understand what's being said to me has noticeably improved. Recently I visited my German aunt and uncle and could speak with them much more easily than ever before. Same with an elderly German relative over the phone; talking with a German cousin when we met for lunch; understanding what the MC said at a concert; reading literature in German at two museums; and so forth. Speaking is always harder, but it's great to be able to get my points across without always having a huge struggle. Florian is always patient, encouraging, and easy to work with. Thanks!
