Reviews (6)

I am very happy with Mr. Shyam as a German teacher for my son, who is still in primary school. After just a few lessons, we noticed that he is very patient and sensitive to my son's needs. I particularly appreciate his ability to structure the lessons in such a way that they are both interesting and educational. Mr. Shyam explains grammar and other complex topics in a clear and understandable way, which helps my son build confidence in the language. His materials are well structured and adapted to my son's level, which makes the learning process very efficient. He is also extremely punctual and reliable, which helps us a lot to fit the lessons into our busy schedule. What I also like is that Mr. Shyam always corrects mistakes in a friendly and encouraging manner, so that my son stays motivated and is not afraid to make mistakes. I can therefore highly recommend Mr. Shyam, both for beginners and for students who want to specifically improve their German skills, be it for school or for exams such as the Goethe Certificate.

His attention to detail is exceptional, as he consistently correct my mistakes in a constructive and encouraging manner. The teaching materials he provide are well-structured, engaging, and tailored to my needs, making each lesson both enjoyable and effective. I recommend Shyam as a great German teacher anyday.
Shyam is very sincere, interactive, punctual and he planned the sessions very well. My son is 10 year old learning German very well and he is always engaged in the full sessions. One thing I want to highlight is Shyam always give some homeworks and he does the recap with student very well. I recommend Shyam as a genuine German teacher.
My daughter whose mother tongue is not Tamil is taking Tamil lessons with Shyam. Shyam is a very good teacher and uses very good teaching materials to teach her. She very much enjoys the lessons and we find that she is quickly picking up the language and we look forward to further lessons with Shyam. We are very happy to have him as her Tamil teacher.
Very friendly and committed

Kevin
Polyglot specialist with 9 years of experience. German in speed mode. Level A1 to C2. No school teaching.
I offer you a German course that is not like the others. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you travel back and forth by train every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Memorise the timetable. 2) Realise that the train comes every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in textbooks and in normal lessons, the first approach is used - in the course I am offering you, it is the second approach because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both pupils and adults who want to learn the German language without time-consuming detours through the madness of fruitless school methods. Learning is easy, but unlearning things that have become bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, with my customised lessons you will greatly accelerate the learning process while having a positive attitude. I offer German lessons for individuals or groups (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive science and historical linguistics in particular. My modular programme can be adapted on a case-by-case basis. The converging point of these modules is your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life. What will not be covered in the course: learning lists of verbs; learning lists of nouns with articles; learning words with their translations; flashcards; doing school exercises; following the syllabus of a booklet; imposing the English grammar on the German language. What is particularly important to me: to motivate my student and to give him a learning rhythm; to encourage his creativity; to befriend him with the language; the letters and their sounds; to strengthen the memory by training the phonological loop; to teach blueprints instead of memorising sentences; to explain how the language works in order to make my student independent as quickly as possible; to eliminate common preconceptions, such as that 'der' would mean masculine and 'die' feminine, that the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, that verbs would be irregular, that declension would be random and therefore would have to be learnt with each verb...; to put practice at the centre and only deal with grammar where necessary. A first lesson will give you a sound idea of my pedagogy.

Spanish & English Lessons with Erika in Belgium :)
Teaching is my passion, and as a native speaker, I've had the pleasure of connecting with students worldwide, starting from my experiences in the Czech Republic where I used to teach English to children. We can delve into the intricacies of communication, focusing on what matters to you. I prepare students for tests like DELE and SIELE, tailoring my approach to your unique goals—whether it's acing an exam, exploring the world, or simply diving into language and culture.
