Teaching (and language learning) is who I am. In university, many of my friends were international students.

Thomas has been very helpful and patient with my German learning process. He adjusts the classes whenever it's necessary to improve the productivity and meet the expectations. He is able to understand your specific difficulties and tailor the teaching to meet your needs.

Thomas is an excellent teacher of Esperanto! He is very skilled in the language, and is patient, supportive and friendly. The lessons are well structured, encouraging and easy to follow. With Thomas's help, I was able to identify and correct problems that I have been struggling with during the introductory lesson. I look forward to my future sessions with Thomas and feel confident that he will help me achieve my goals (and fluency) in Esperanto!
