Über mich
italki-Lehrkraft seit 26. Nov 2024Thema von InteresseSchreibenFilmeTiereReisenLesen
My name is Thomas and I grew up bilingually with German and Slovenian. Having discovered my passion for languages very early, I have worked hard to learn to speak and write 11 of them on a level of fluency. I have now been working as a language teacher for 23 years, out of which 18 as an independent teacher.
I have been using italki to learn languages so far, but I have now decided to try out teaching here as well. It is my hope that my beginner's profile does not make you mistakenly assume that I am a beginner in the field of teaching as I have been having about 40 hours of classes weekly in the last 20 or so years.Ich als Lehrkraft
When teaching I take both my schedule and my classes seriously. When a class is scheduled, it is part of my weekly plan and I get ready for it. I conduct a detailed journal of what I have been doing with my student, I write down every session, thus it is easy for me to check what we did on our past sessions.
I used to teach more conventionally, meaning with my students being in the same room as me. In 2021 I started using Skype for my classes and things work out very well. I am always punctual as I respect the time my students take for our class, likewise I do appreciate if my students do the same. Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
My lessons can be conducted in any of the following languages:
German
Slovenian
English
French
Swedish
Danish
Norwegian
Italian
Spanish
Dutch
Esperanto
I try to conduct my classes in a way that resembles the conventional school as much as possible. Meaning a thorough explanation of the grammar with several carefully tailored examples, exercises, homework, checking the student's progress, listening and reading comprehensions and once the student's knowledge progresses sufficiently, having a conversation class.Mein Unterrichtsmaterial

Absolutely incredible teacher! He made it so easy, he also explained some basic grammar questions. He was highly encouraging. I immediately booked more lessons. Kind and friendly, even when I made mistakes. He helped and guided me to find the correct answers. I highly recommend everyone to book with him!!

Die Stunden mit Thomas sind sehr hilfreich und er reagiert super auf meine speziellen Fragen. Die Präsentation/die Aufzeichnungen sind gut strukturiert gestaltet und es ist für mein absolutes Anfängerniveau höchst komfortabel, dass er perfekt Deutsch spricht. Ich kann den Unterricht nur wärmstens empfehlen!

I had explained prior to the lesson that I wanted to build confidence and gain experience in speaking.
Thomas made sure that I was able to spend most of the lesson speaking, using appropriate natural pauses in the conversation to point out errors and giving constructive feedback.
I was nervous before the lesson but I felt at ease during and afterwards thanks to Thomas' approach.
