German tutor with TESOL certificate and over 4 years experience Hey, I am Tom! Probably the will to understand other people is the driving force that makes me love language. Language is like the key to a persons or cultures heart. Other than languages, I am really into food, my friends and living here in Cyprus. Hey, Ich bin Tom! Wahrscheinlich ist der der Wunsch andere Menschen zu verstehen, die mich antreibt Sprachen zu lieben. Eine Sprache ist der Schlüssel zum Herzen einer Person oder einer Kultur. Ausserdem, liebe ich Essen, meine Freunde und das Leben hier in Zypern. I have been learning 6 languages without living in the country the language was spoken, so I can relate to learners. Let's make it a fun and informative lesson about German, Germans, and Germany. Ich habe 6 Sprachen gelernt, ohne in dem Land in dem die Sprache gesprochen wird zu leben, kann mich also in Lernende hineinversetzen. Lass uns einen spassigen und informativen Unterricht über Deutsch, Deutsche und Deutschland haben. Shortly, I would describe myself as understanding. I try to figure out what makes it difficult for someone to learn german and then simplify as best as possible. Especially, conversation and pronunciation are my favorites in teaching. Kurz gesagt, ich beschreibe mich als verstaendnisvoll. Ich versuche herauszufinden was es jemandem erschwert Deutsch zu lernen und vereinfache dann so gut es geht. Was mir besonders liegt, sind Konversationen und Aussprache.

Tom is a wonderful and empathetic teacher. I really enjoyed our first session and looking forward to the next sessions. Tom helped me phrase my sentences properly and provided corrections where I needed them. The conversation was very pleasant and relaxed, and Tom provided me enough space to practice my speaking skills at a comfortable pace. Vielen Dank und bis bald!

This is a wonderful way to speak a new language. Tom is patient while I look for the right words, the way he explains and puts the words to use is so helpful. Even after two classes I already feel more confident with German.

Tom was super nice and friendly 😊 I improved my German a lot, and he was always really supportive. I felt comfortable asking questions, and he explained everything patiently. It was a really positive and enjoyable experience! 🙌

In English to express myself better: Tom is a fantastic teacher. He pays close attention. I never get the feeling that he is thinking about other things. He's very calm and encouraging of my efforts to express complicated thoughts. He comes up with a variety of questions and subjects to challenge my understanding and my ability to put together sentences. He's is always on time. When I get tired of talking, he makes me feel free to ask grammar questions or even questions about his own experience. This is always a good opportunity to improve my listening comprehension.

Tom has been an incredibly patient and engaging teacher for me as I learn German. Tom is easy to have conversations with and encourages me to express myself in German, even if I don't know all the vocab at first. I've really enjoyed having a low-stakes, consistent opportunity to practice speaking with someone
