Matthias is a very personable and encouraging instructor. Thanks to his guidance, I progressed from A2 to B2 within one year and successfully passed my TCF! I really appreciate his patience and clear explanations. He is able to tailor his lessons to my needs and share cultural practices and perspectives, making the lessons fun and engaging. Il m’a beaucoup aidé à gagner en confiance à l’oral, merci beaucoup !

Matthias is the most encouraging teacher I have had on italki! He is really good at pushing you out of your comfort zone without making you feel scared or uncomfortable. I was able to speak French from the first couple of classes because I felt safe and supported. My test preparation classes are thought-through and the feedback on my mistakes is very useful because it helps me learn the logic behind the task (not just what's correct)!

Matthias is the French teacher of my dreams! I have been taking lessons with him consistently for the last 8 months, and during this time he has helped me immeasurably. My comprehension of both spoken and written French have improved enormously, and what I am most pleased about is that my ability to speak French with greater fluency is so much better.
It is very clear that Matthias takes great pleasure in teaching French, and that he loves sharing his French culture and his life experiences. He customises each of my classes for my level and carefully prepares the materials he will use, for example spoken and written exercises, presentation slides, photos, videos, and all homework assignments. He is exceedingly patient, always enthusiastic and positive, and extremely kind. He is consistently well organised, and he is unfailingly passionate about teaching. Honestly, I cannot recommend him highly enough, he is an amazing French teacher!
Huge thank you Matthias!

I had my trial lesson yesterday and it was excellent. We got to know each other, discussed my goals, and made a plan. Matthias is extremely organised and knows how to motivate during conversation, which makes the learning process engaging and inspiring. I'm really excited to continue with the next classes.

Wonderful class! We worked on conjugation of regular verbs ending in "er". Reviewed previous lesson with greetings and how to ask questions regarding pronunciation and spelling. Looking forward to learning more!
