About Me

Hello everyone,
Hope you are doing fantastic!
My name is Thomas and I am from Germany.
What 3 words describe me the best?
Optimistic, Peaceful and Passionate
In my free time I enjoy doing several things. Learning languages is one of my favourite activities. I was raised bilingual with Russian and German and since then my interest in languages has grown steadily. My current challange is learning Japanese.
Besides that, I love to train Aikido. It is a peaceful Japanese martial arts that really helps shaping my personality.
I love to hold speeches and organise workshops. It is one of my goals to become a trainer :)
But there is much more ... Let's meet up personally!Me as a Teacher
Are you bored of monotone textbooks? Are you tired of difficult grammar without conversation practice and fun? Look no further :) In my lessons, you will learn everything necessary to speak German fluently asap and reach your goals with fun!
My teaching journey started right after finishing school. I immediately flew to Russia and began working as a German teacher in a language camp. It was a really fulfilling experience to work with children and help them out with German. I vividly remember the sweet letters I received from my satisfied students :)
In 2020 I started to teach online due to the pandemic.
All in all I gathered around 3 years of experience with more than 50 happy students.My lessons & teaching style
What makes a great lesson?
+Knowing your motivation and learning goal is crucial
+Building a good relationship
+Talking about shared interests
+Giving you room to express yourself without interruptions
+Fun, Musical breaks
+The more German we speak, the better
What can you expect from my lessons?
My lessons focus on your speaking ability ... with occasional writing and reading
I am using various materials like texts, novels, poems, music, videos, film scenes etc.
I can suit my lessons to different needs: Traveling to Germany? Working or Studying in Germany?
No problem for me :)

I absolutely love working with Thomas. He is very encouraging and patient. He has provided me with excellent learning materials that challenge me just enough that it is still fun and not frustrating. I am really excited to continue working with him.

Thomas is a great teacher! He carefully prepares the lessons, is fun and patient. His conversation lessons helped me a lot to get ready for graduation exams of Germanistics. I would absolutely recommend him.
