German coach For me it's important to make sure that my students are confident in their skills to build upon them. Language learning often is hard and time consuming. So I want to make it as fun as possible by using media and motivate students by showing them what they have achieved so far using practical examples. Es ist mir wichtig, sicherzugehen, dass meine Schüler sicher in ihren Fertigkeiten sind, um darauf aufzubauen. Eine Sprache zu lernen ist oftmals schwierig und zeitintensiv. Daher möchte ich ihnen es so angenehm wie möglich machen, indem ich verschiedene Medien nutze und sie dahingehend motivere, dass ich ihnen anhand von praktischen Beispielen zeige, was sie bereits erreicht haben.

Se vuoi un insegnante paziente, esperto e divertente, stai facendo la scelta giusta! ;) Sono una persona molto aperta e curiosa. Faccio lezione in maniera sciolta ed informale, per esempio conversando su qualunque tipo di argomento, cercando di cogliere quali possano essere i temi da affrontare o da perfezionare (grammatica, pronuncia, vocabolario).

Language learner and patient tutor I am very patient and understand the struggles of learning a new language as I have spent a couple years on italki as a student myself and continue taking lessons regularly. As a teacher I try to do the things that I have found most useful as a learner. We can speak about what interests you, read texts together or watch videos online and then talk about those. I do want to help you with whatever you need, so we will start by speaking about your goals and expectations regarding the lessons. I do not believe in studying grammar charts or vocabulary lists, but I do believe in improving those areas by gaining a natural understanding of how a language works through listening, reading an speaking.

3 years experience and more than a hundred happy students. Lets elevate your German together! I am a community tutor and my lessons are targeted at beginner-to-advanced speakers. I am an open-minded person who's engaging and empathetic in conversation.  Learning a new language can be difficult. I still try to argue fluently with my Dad in Italian. Currently, I'm learning Chiense, so I totally understand how you feel when struggling to get your point across. MISTAKES ARE PART IN THE PROCESS! Also, I use an ever growing Notion-page that I share with all my students. On personal pages, we work together to expand the materials, reaching from grammar to culture.
