Guten Tag! Do you want to learn or improve German? Do you or does your child need to prepare for exams at school or University? I am a German native speaker and general language enthusiast. Besides German I speak English, Swedish, Spanish and Italian. Having learned multiple languages myself I am sure that I can successfully teach you German in a fun and relaxed manner. My focus lies on speaking the language from day one. Immersion is key to language learning. Think of small children. They are language geniuses. Why? Because they speak as soon as their brains permit them to speak, without worrying of making mistakes. Therefore, it is important to start using the newly learned words immediately to prime our brains to get comfortable with the language. My classes combine speaking, listening & grammar exercises in interaction with me. Furthermore, I show you the best technological tools (homepages and applications) to boost your language learning and take it to the next level! I am extremely confident that you very soon will have the same success that I have had in learning languages! I look forward to hearing from you! Best wishes, Sebastian
