Rainer is absolutely an excellent teacher, more than a student could ask for. Regulary working with him for 2 months, I experience him as always prepared and having tailored material for his students. One can feel his genuine interest in languages which is highly motivating. He provides guidance, from grammer to pronunciation, covering different aspects of language-learning. Extra: He is also a well-read, an interesting and intellectual individual which brings great conversations forth. Highly recommended!

What can I say...Rainer is truly the best one can ever ask for. Every class is carefully prepared and engaging. Aside from his expertise in the language, he is well-travelled and well-read, which makes every discussion rich with insights. Classes with him bring out the fundamental objective of language-learning, to converse with a fellow human being, and this has sure kept me motivated. So far great, great conversations on countries, cultures, movies, and now onto series!! Very grateful to have come across Rainer on italki :). Will recommend to anyone!

Excellent teacher

Rainer is an excellent teacher that prepares his lessons thouroughly, providing a good balance between oral expression and grammatic guidance. Very efficient, I learned more in one lesson than a whole week at my local language school !
