Hi, I’m Arthur! I’m a native German speaker from Marburg. I grew up in Germany, but since my dad lived in London from the time I was three, I often visited him there and became fluent in both German and English.
For the past five years, I’ve been living in different countries across Southeast Asia, working online and meeting people from all over the world. I’ve also traveled to 37 countries and lived in Australia for over a year.
Outside of teaching, I’m passionate about traveling, sports, fitness & health, scuba diving, outdoor adventures, movies, and spending time in nature and with animals—so if you’re into any of those, I'm sure we’ll have lots to talk about. :)
In 2020, I started working as a science teacher at an international school, teaching children aged 8–12. After completing a 120-hour TEFL course, I also began tutoring English privately for kids.
Through these experiences, I discovered how much I enjoy teaching and supporting students in their learning journey. That’s why I decided to focus on the language I feel most at home with—German.
I’ve now been teaching German on italki for over four years, working with learners from all around the world. In 2024, I also successfully completed the DLL (Deutsch Lehren Lernen) course at the Goethe-Institut, which further strengthened my skills as a language teacher.
Learning a new language should be fun and practical. That’s why my lessons are conversation-based and tailored to your interests. We’ll focus on topics that...

Arthur ist der beste Lehrer! Ich lerne seit 5 Monaten mit Arthur und mittlerweile ist mein Deutsch dank ihm sehr gut geworden. Es ist immer eine Freude, mit ihm Unterricht zu haben. Er ist sehr nett, freundlich, immer pünktlich und hat stets Geduld für seine Studentinnen. Vielen Dank für alles, Arthur! Ich werde weiterhin mit dir lernen!

I am simply ecstatic to have finally found the absolute perfect German teacher for myself here on iTalki. I am confident that by seeing Arthur regularly over an extended period of time, I will eventually be able to speak the German language. I appreciate, above all, Arthur's willingness to adapt to my personal learning style and method, which probably matters the most to me in any learning process. I have learnt so much in just an hour, be it in terms of grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, the spontaneous construction of sentences or listening skills. Besides the productivity and effectiveness of our first session, Arthur's wonderful personality and energy made it a fun and extremely pleasurable experience, even though I was exceedingly nervous before the lesson due to my lack of experience with the language. Thank you so much for your help and patience, Arthur! I look forward to working with you in the long term and making progress whilst enjoying the journey.

Arthur ist wirklich toll. Der Unterricht beginnt immer damit, dass er zunächst fragt, was wir in der heutigen Stunde erreichen wollen.
Der Schwerpunkt liegt auf dem Sprechen. Dabei geht es vor allem um folgende Punkte:
1. Er hört extrem aufmerksam zu und merkt sich jedes noch so kleine Detail.
2. Er korrigiert die Sätze nacheinander sehr geduldig und präzise.
3. Er stellt zusätzlich Materialien und Webseiten für das Selbststudium nach dem Unterricht zur Verfügung.
Er ist ein sehr engagierter und gewissenhafter Lehrer mit einer starken pädagogischen Kompetenz. Ich kann seinen Kurs jedem nur wärmstens empfehlen.

Arthur is a wonderful German teacher, who goes above and beyond to ensure lessons are interesting and exciting.
Most importantly he is excellent at ensuring lessons are tailored to your level and will skilfully increase the difficulty without you realising.
If you are serious about making progress with your German, look no further than Arthur.

He is so patient with me. Arthur is understanding and doesn't make me feel stupid. Thankfully we have a lot of fun during lessons which ms learning German exciting. He has helped me believe more in my German skills and gives authentic feedback. I understand why Arthur is popular. He will be my German teacher until I reach C1. I am in A2.2 now, I hope heake can handle my craziness and how German makes me even crazier. Good luck to him. 😅
