Tech-savvy IT professional turned German coach? That’s me! I blend dynamic conversation training for fluency with precision grammar coaching for accuracy to help you speak German naturally—whether you're pitching to a startup, presenting in a boardroom, or backpacking through Berlin.
Are you an IT professional, prepping for an exam (Goethe/TestDaF), or looking to perfect your accent? Let’s tailor our lessons to your world. My students go from "textbook German" to the real thing—think negotiating contracts, debating code, or ordering a Kaffee like a local.
Love tech, travel, or trading stories? So do I. Let’s turn your goals into fluent, fearless conversations. Auf geht’s!
Me as a Teacher
As a teacher, I’m supportive, patient, and highly focused on results. I pay close attention to recurring mistakes and turn them into clear learning opportunities. I believe that anyone can improve with the right guidance and structure. I adapt quickly to each student’s needs and always encourage active participation, because real progress comes from using the language, not just studying it.
My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are practical, structured, and centered on speaking. We focus on real communication, useful vocabulary, and clear grammar explanations when needed. I adjust the pace to your level and goals, making sure each lesson feels productive and motivating. You’ll practice a lot, receive clear feedback, and gradually build accuracy and confidence so you can use the language naturally in everyday and professional situations.

Just 15 minutes into our lecture I felt almost more confident than ever thanks to Mr. Simon's support and guidance, almost literally at every sentence. I believe that mistakes and misunderstandings must happen in order for us to improve and be better. This is best to be learnt with teachers like Herr Simon!

I learned just how to count numbers.
I found there is a reasonable rules in progress of numbers.
And My teacher explained plainly these rules.
So now I can successfully memorize numbers in great ease!
I enjoyed very much the lesson.
Danke, Guter Lehrer!

Ich habe schon zwei Unterrichten von Simon bekommen, die mir sehr gut geholfen haben. Dank seiner großartigen Rückmeldung habe ich besser verstanden, wie ich meine Aussprache verbessern kann.

It's a lot of fun to study with Simon, and I am making a lot of progress toward my goal of being able to initiate and respond appropriately in informal conversations.

Simon is a talented teacher who is extremely down to earth and creates an environment where one feels safe to make mistakes and improve through his feedback. I was very impressed with the notes he made specifically for me already during our first lesson with corrections to my German. I will without a doubt continue with him and have full trust that I will acheive my goals with Simon!
