À propos de moi
Professeur italki depuis le 27 Mar 2020Sujets d'intérêtSportTechnologieScience
Hello! My name is Thomas. I live in Berlin, Germany. I am an early childhood educator.
I currently work with nursery children between the age of one and three in a dual-language preschool.
I'm passionate about people, human development, and communication. I love connecting with people on iTalki and learning, working, and laughing together.Moi en tant que professeur
I have been teacher for the past seven years. My experiences include:
- teaching adults in a language institute
- teaching young children online
- serving as a school leader of a Montessori kindergarten
- teaching youth in a boarding school
- teaching refugee adults
- working with children in bilingual kindergartens
I have more than fifteen years experience learning languages. I have reached a level of A2 to C2 in eight languages. I have a lot of knowledge and wisdom about learning languages.
I can help students learn languages, reach their goals, and get better at learning languages. Mes leçons et ma méthode d'enseignement
I teach lessons 90-100% in the target language.
I center lessons around dialogue.
I give students many chances to speak, and I ask a lot of questions. I talk in a way that you can understand, and learn from.
I love to make jokes, laugh, and have fun during lessons.
During lessons, I offer coaching to students about language learning methods.Certificats

Thomas is a great teacher! I took speaking classes and that was a really amazing experience. Although speaking other languages sometimes is really difficult Thomas always found ways to make it easier and comfortable, so lessons with him were more useful and interesting.

Ich genieße meinen Unterricht bei Thomas sehr. Er ist geduldig, flexibel und sehr professionell. Die Zeit vergeht schnell, weil der Unterricht mit Thomas Spaß macht, abwechslungsreich und praktisch ist. In unserer ersten Stunde fragte er mich nach meinen Zielen und Motivationen, die deutsche Sprache zu lernen. Durch unseren Unterricht habe ich mehr über den täglichen Gebrauch der deutschen Sprache gelernt. Ich fühle mich sicherer beim Sprechen im Alltag. Ich bin sehr zufrieden und würde Thomas weiter empfehlen.

Thomas does a great job of mixing natural conversation with structured topics to make each lesson feel organic, yet focused.

This was another great lesson/discussion. Thomas is good at building my confidence and getting me to speak a lot of the language. The discussions are always very enjoyable and engaging.
