As I have been living in many countries, I have always worked as a private tutor to teach my foreign friends and contacts Chinese and at the same time, teaching my Chinese friends German or English. I am a very communicative, organised and open person, so I often encourage my students to keep practicing. Don't be afraid to make mistakes! Also, in my opinion, it is very important for me to know the needs of my students so that I can do my best to prepare materials, videos, documents before lessons to keep my students motivated! 友達に日本語を教えた経験があって、外国のビジネス関係者や友人に中国とドイツ語のレッスンをした経験もあります。レッスンの前に、あなたの中国語かドイツ語のレベルを聞かせていただきいて、できるだけあなたのレベルに応じて授業を差し上げます。

Ich bin ausgebildeter Physiotherapeut und arbeite seit mehreren Jahren als Deutsch-Tutor auf italki.

Ich passe meinen Unterricht an dein Niveau, deine Ziele und deine persönlichen Schwierigkeiten an. Gemeinsam finden wir heraus, wo deine Stärken und Schwächen liegen, schließen gezielt Lücken in Grammatik und Wortschatz und arbeiten daran, dass du dich immer sicherer und natürlicher ausdrücken kannst.

Auch KI-Tools und Sprachapplikationen setze ich gezielt ein, wenn sie für deinen Lernfortschritt sinnvoll sind. Ob Konversation, Grammatik, österreichischer Dialekt oder Prüfungsvorbereitung – mein Ziel ist nicht, dir einfach Deutsch beizubringen, sondern dir zu helfen, Deutsch selbstbewusst und praktisch zu benutzen.

✔ Take your German to the next Level I’ve started private teaching in 2014. I have no accent, and I teach in standard German. In the beginning I taught people from East Asia, but today my students are coming from all over the world. I'm particularly interested in languages like Japanese, Chinese and Korean. Right now I'm trying to master Japanese. Understanding how these languages are structured gives me the opportunity to teach you German in a more understandable way. In addition, I can help you, to pass the TestDaF, which is the general German language test for foreigners, who want to start studying at a German University. I've also experience in preparing students for the DSH language test and the Goethe-Zertifikat.

Grüezi! | Swiss German & German Tutor | Speak Naturally & Understand Real Swiss German Hello, I’m Thomas from Switzerland 🇨🇭, currently living in Tokyo 🇯🇵. I help learners understand and speak real Swiss German in everyday situations — and feel more confident and comfortable in conversation. I’m a professional Swiss German & German tutor with 5+ years of experience on italki. 👉 My lessons are for students who already speak German (A2+) and want to improve their speaking, listening, and communication skills. (I do not teach complete beginners.) Many learners understand High German but struggle with Swiss German in real life. I know how challenging that can be, and I’ll guide you step by step through it. My main focus is Swiss German, but I also teach High German (Standard German) and help you move naturally between both. My method is simple: we speak a lot. Through relaxed, natural conversations, you improve step by step and build real confidence. During lessons, I support you with: • clear corrections and helpful feedback • vocabulary & natural expressions • grammar explanations when needed I create my own Swiss German learning materials, designed specifically for learners, and run the YouTube channel “Swiss German Storytime”. I also share additional practice and learning resources on Patreon. My goal is to help you feel confident speaking and understanding Swiss German in everyday situations. Feel free to book a lesson — I’d be happy to work with you. Thomas
