Hallo und Guten Tag! š
Iām Henry, a linguist and German/English specialist with 15+ years of teaching. Born in Czechia, Iāve lived across Germany and Slovakiaāso expect real-world language and cultural insights!

I teach since I was 18(now it is 16 years with over 1000 of students): I taught kids, adults or managers in many companies in classes up to 16 people or face-to-face with only one student.
Currently I am working in the Goethe Institute in Bratislava.
Why Choose Me:
-Extensive teaching experience.

- Tailored lessons to suit individual needs and goals.
- A commitment to creating an engaging and interactive learning experience My lessons & teaching style
I am specialized in any field of the German language:

- Cultural aspects and etiquette
If you have any questions feel free to message me, I will answer as soon as I can.
I hope we will see each other soon in class!
Henry
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The 60 minute lesson is approximately 55 minutes long - This is because mostly all dates are booked out and I need 5 minutes in between the lessons for administrative work. Currently ONLY take adults (16 year old minimum). Thank you for the understanding.My teaching material

Im currently working on getting to a B2 level and I feel confident that I can get there with Henry. He points out issues in my language and helps me to fix them, or works with me for a couple lessons to improve them. He also introduces new Grammar ideas or Vocabulary that helps me significantly to improve my language. Thank you! I hope to reach B2!

Wow, 100 lessons! That's hard to believe! Henry, you are still just as patient and prepared during my 100th lesson as you were during the 1st. When I started, I didn't know ANY German, and I've learned so much. I'm looking forward to the next 100 lessons! :-)

A good first lesson, the teacher took time to understand my goals and learning style to set a plan. He was willing to also be flexible.

This was my 110th lesson with Henry. I am a veterinarian with a practice on the Central Coast of California and my wife and I travel frequently to Germany. Both of us have had over 100 lesson with Henry and have made significant progress. Henry is willing to go as quickly or slowly as needed to help us learn the language. I highly recommend him.
