About Me

Hello I'm Simon. I like travelling, listening to music, playing guitar, going out with friends, playing computer games, watching TV, riding motorbike, reading books about financial and technical stuff and a lot more. I work as an engineer but I also worked as a computer specialist.
If you can't find an open slot in my calendar just write me a message and we'll find a suitable time. Please do not book a lesson for another person. Thank you.Me as a Teacher
I had some freelancer jobs as a translator and teacher already. Furthermore I've learned 4 foreign languages so far (English, French, Spanish, Japanese) and can therefore very well understand the problems beginners are facing when learning a new language. I've also lived in the French speaking part of swiss for more than 3 years. I enjoy teaching people things, especially in languages. I always try to speak slow, clearly and simplify my sentences if I realize the student can't keep up with me. I'm also very patient and give general advice on how to learn a language.My lessons & teaching style
In my lessons we'll talk and read a lot and practice speaking/pronounciation, but I'll also explain grammar if I realize the student has specific problems.
I can use a variety of utilities (skype, messenger, presentations, books, e-books, screen sharing...) and I'll adapt to the student. Due to my occupational career I can also teach some business english and some specialized technical fields.
I'm not only teaching vocabulary and grammar but also general advices on how to learn a language more efficiently. I always try to motivate my students and give them an honest feedback. Please do not book a lesson for another person. Thank you.My teaching material

Simon is an amazing teacher and every single lesson with him is a fun one! It's never boring and we also find topics to discuss. Simon definitely cares about what I say and how I say it. If something doesn't sound right, he always corrects my sentences/phrases. Another great thing about Simon is his perfect English. When I don't know how to say something in German, I can easily explain it in English and will be understood and given a right translation. Overall, I am super pleased to have lessons with Simon and don't even want to consider any other teachers.

Simon listened to me carefully, corrected my mistakes, gave me hints, and provided various examples. I really enjoyed the flow of the lesson. I can confidently recommend taking lessons with him.
