Wie geht's? / 안녕하세요! / Hello! / Oi, tudo bem?
I am a friendly but expert language instructor and language course engineer from Switzerland. I lived many years in Brazil, the US, went to university in Switzerland, and concluded my master's degree in language education in S. Korea with the highest GPA 4.46/4.5.
I was rated in the top 1% among German teachers on italki for 2022 and I take great pride in my professionalism and attention to detail. My lessons are carefully structured and organized, with a strong framework that ensures maximum understanding, retention, and success.
Additionally, I understand how the brain learns language.
게다가 제가 한국어도 잘해서 걱정 하지 말고 공부를 편하게 할까요? ㅎㅎMe as a Teacher
What sets me apart is my deep understanding of how the brain works for language learning. With an understanding of cognitive psychology and extensive experience teaching as well learning myself 4 languages to high proficiency, I have developed an innovative and research-based teaching methodology that maximizes your language acquisition and retention.
I exercise common sense and respect in my classes. My goal is for you to learn the language so that you can use it to be successful in many other areas of your life.
Actually, I envy you that you have the opportunity to have someone who understands so much about language learning. It's not just about grammar and vocab; it goes much deeper =)My lessons & teaching style
My teaching style focuses on providing students with a comprehensive, effective, and challenging approach to language learning that is also interactive and dynamic. Don't expect me to just fill you up with knowledge - that is what teachers do; I will regularly and positively challenge your understanding and memory of things we covered.
I emphasize the importance of understanding the underlying patterns and structures of the language by explaining and demonstrating even complicated grammar patterns in a very simple way.
My lessons build upon each other to promote a comprehensive and integrated understanding of the language.

I've tried different teachers and language schools, but none have been as impactful as Josias. His methodology is not only highly innovative but also incredibly effective.
He orchestrates each class with precision and structure, ensuring that I retain everything covered and that every lesson is engaging.
Under his guidance, I've achieved a level of progress that I previously thought unattainable. The way he integrates unique teaching techniques and his intelligent course design is genuinely commendable.
For anyone looking to truly learn German and become confident in using it, Josias offers a teaching style that is both inspiring and transformative. Highly recommended for those who value premium-quality education.

I've tried many teachers on italki and haven't found a teacher that can accomplish what Josias does so effectively.
First and foremost, a class with Josias will leave you feeling fantastic; he is a wonderful person who makes language study a very joyful experience. He excels in fostering a happy and secure learning atmosphere.
His courses have a strong framework that is well thought out and tailored to your own personal needs. It is clear that as a teacher, Josias has solid pedagogical knowledge and experience, which shines through in everything that he does. I wholeheartedly recommend him for beginner and intermediate students alike.

I came with no German knowledge and I'm incredibly satisfied with the pedagogy, dynamics and structure of the course offered by Josias. I can attest to the claim that his course is engineered stemming from cutting-edge methods. He provides convenient PDFs after each class, removing much of the friction to study. Lessons build up nicely on each other. Paramount is the constant challenge ingrained into the lessons. I've been three months taking +2 weekly classes, and look forward to have more during the ensuing months.

Josias is just amazing and makes learning German feel effortless. From the very beginning, you can trust him and his method, making the whole experience a pleasure. Even after many lessons, I still feel excited to continue this journey.
Staying motivated as things get more complex is usually tough, but not with Josias. His classes are super well-structured and you will feel more in control of the language with each lesson, boosting your confidence and highlighting your progress. His approach to German grammar and vocabulary, even at the intermediate level, is just invaluable.
I’d recommend Josias to anyone who wants to build a solid foundation in German, whether beginner or intermediate. Plus, he’s a genuinely nice and friendly guy, making learning so enjoyable. I always recommend him to my friends, and I truly believe he's the teacher who will help me speak German confidently all the way.
Thanks, Josias! Keep it up!
