Me as a Teacher
✔ I'm an expert for students from an upper beginner to an advanced level (A2-C2)
✔ You'll receive a detailed feedback and homework after every lesson
✔ You'll get a list with every mistake you made during the lesson in a Google Document
✔ I start with pronunciation first - my main goal is to help you to just sound "good" to a German's ears.
✔ Once your pronunciation is on point, the rest (grammar, writing..) comes automatically!
✔ I would like you to find and correct your own (pronunciation) mistakes before I correct you
✔ That way you can avoid repeating the same mistake and your German becomes automatic
✔ That's the "Silent Way Approach": Book a lesson with me and try it out!My lessons & teaching style

Der Probeunterricht hat mir sehr gut gefallen. Besonders hilfreich finde ich die Fehlerdokumentierung und ein mündliches Feedback zur meinen Fehler sowie allgemeine Kommentare zur meinen Aussprache und Verbesserungsmöglichkeiten.

Simon is very competent and professional. He teaches with patience. He challenges me to speak a lot and helped me find the right words and correct my grammar mistakes. He helped me to prepare for my Final Exam. I highly recommend Simon!

My introductory class with Simon was excellent. He came with a positive attitude and created a relaxed environment, perfect for a productive lesson. We discussed my goals and he set a concrete learning plan. He spoke and explained very clearly and listened actively to my speech, giving appropriate feedback and taking note of grammar mistakes. I really enjoyed the conversation and I look forward to greatly improving my German skills. Ottimo lavoro e grazie mille!

Simon hat mir mit Geduld zugehört und er hatte eine motivierende Herangehensweise, was meiner Meinung nach beides die wichtigsten Elemente sind, die ein Fremdsprachenlehrer haben muss.
