Thanks to Andy and his help and great teaching I just completed the German A1 exam. The relaxed but thoughtful teaching approach works so well for me and even though I always make so many mistakes Andy has to be the most patient teacher in the world. Looking forward to continuing onto A2 now :).

Andy is a very capable teacher who adapts to whatever the student wants to do. He has lots of interesting resources to suggest on whatever topic you're working on and, I can attest, works very well with advanced students.

Andy is teaching my 15 yo son. I am highly satisfied with the appropriateness of his teachings, the connection he builds through a good topic selection, and his general work ethics. Recommended!
