About Me
italki teacher since May 8, 2018InterestsMusicSports & FitnessScienceTravelEnvironment & Nature
I’m a passionate musician, surfer, and skateboarder – movement and rhythm have always played a big role in my life. But my curiosity goes far beyond that. I’m deeply fascinated by life itself – its origins, its complexity, and our place in nature.
Traveling and living in countries like Spain, Mexico, Kanada, Colombia, Portugal, ect. has had a huge impact on the way I see the world – and on how I teach. These experiences allow me to create open, culturally aware learning environments where people feel safe to express themselves.Me as a Teacher
I became a teacher on italki to share my passion for a rare and complex language with people around the world—whether you're deeply interested or simply love learning new things. I’m relaxed, communicative and motivated, so lessons with me feel more like fun than work—which is how it should be!
I’ve been teaching German for over 6 years, helping students prepare for real life in Germany—exams, interviews, integration tests, and more. While communication is always at the center, I also believe that grammar plays a key role: not as dry theory, but as useful shortcuts and patterns that help you express yourself more clearly, confidently, and efficiently. My lessons & teaching style
With over 6000 lessons taught on and off italki, I know every learner has their own goals. I offer level-specific grammar, conversation topics, and exam preparation (Goethe, Telc, TestDaF, etc.) for A1–C2. Beginners benefit from a mix of structured exercises and simple dialogues, while advanced students focus on discussion, fluency and more complex grammar. Each student gets a personal Google Doc where I track vocabulary, grammar, feedback and more. But in the end I always adapt my lessons to your level, needs, goals and learning style—for a fun and effective learning experience.My teaching material

Heute bekam ich eine glückliche E-Mail, dass ich die letzte Zertifikatsprüfung, Telc B1 bestanden habe! Sogar auf dem Zertifikat war es geschrieben, 'Sehr gut'. Juuhhuuu🎉!!
Während ich mich darauf vorbereitet habe, waren die Unterrichten mit Marco sehr hilfreich.
Bei der heutigen Lektion waren Marco und ich über das Ergebnis sehr fröhlich. Nach dem Urlaub will ich bis die nächste, B2 weit laufen, noch mit diesem netten Lehrer, Marco😊

Marco has a great ability to manage the lesson and the student and the pace. It's a rare quality that I recognize as a teacher myself. Marco conducts a relaxed but intensive class. He knows how to put you at ease. He is also very flexible and talors lessons to your needs. I always look forward to having lessons with him. I highly recommend Marco! Он классный учитель :) Un insegnante straordinario! Perfektní učitel!!!

It’s my first class with Marco, and I was a bit nervous. Marco was so nice to offer me some time to chat with me in English first to ease my nervousness. After that we had review on what I should have learned before, and he offered me detailed explanation on preposition and Perfekt vs Präteritum , which are so useful to know! Nice of him to leave me some homework for me to practice. Looking forward to his next class soon!😄
