I'm 33 years old and I'm half French and half German. I'm a native speaker of both languages, grew up in both countries, and have dual citizenship. My interest in American culture motivated me to start learning English by myself when I was a teenager. After a few years I reached a native speaker level and acquired a nearly perfect accent by having frequent conversations and constantly watching content in English. Since then, language learning has become my main passion in life. My success with English motivated me to do the same with Japanese, Korean and Mandarin Chinese. After having lived in Japan and Korea for several years, I reached an advanced level in both languages.

I’ve taken about 70 lessons with Lucas in both French (intermediate) and German (advanced). He’s always very professional, on-time, and attentive in our lessons. He customizes our sessions based on my interest and is always open to feedback. For example, he prepared a German vocabulary list of technical cameral gear and photography terms. This was so lovely of him to do in his free time prior to our session. Lucas is an excellent teacher with a fun and well-informed, providing interesting reading material and homework. Another time when Lucas really went above and beyond was when I started studying for the TEF IRN, which is a French language exam to apply for naturalization. Lucas had never taught this particular format of the exam before, and so kindly agreed to help me prepare for this new format. We went through countless exercises together and I was soooo happy when I aced my exam. 
 In summary, Lucas is an amazing teacher and I can genuinely recommend his classes.

Très bonne séance, comme toujours. On a discuté des langues, iTalki, et les différences entre les états des États-Unis. C'était une conversation formidable et très intéressant. Lucas connaît beaucoup à propos de n'importe quel sujet et, donc, c'est facile de discuter ce que ses étudiants aiment. À la prochaine!

Lucas is really enjoyable to work with! He has a real knack of understanding your level and then pushing you beyond it to learn!

Lucas is a great teacher. He has a wealth of knowledge he can share, is helpful and polite. He adapts his way of speaking and pronunciation to my current oral comprehension level. In my opinion his accent is worth acquiring, that is why I chose him in the first place. I am very content to have him as my teacher, because my active vocabulary increases with every session and my German accent atrophies steadily. Furthermore he keeps the conversation flowing and it is fun talking to him. I can recommend Lucas as a teacher to everyone who wants to improve, enhance and refine their French skills.

Lucas was very well prepared for the lesson. We discussed my learning goals and a possible study plan, which I found very helpful. He was polite, professional, and created a comfortable atmosphere during the lesson. I’m looking forward to continuing our classes

I'm learning both French and German with Lukas to help fill gaps in both languages and I am thriving with his style of encouragement and practical explanation through simple but effective exercises.
