Experienced teacher, having lived a year in Lüneburg, I am enthusiastic about the idea of helping anyone wishing to learn German or improve their level by enjoying reading and speaking it.

The objective of this course is to offer a pleasant environment to anyone wishing to learn or improve their German, in order to enable them to gain self-confidence. We seek to create an atmosphere where the learner will enjoy coming back and seeing the progress made.

I have experience in teaching and tutoring, I appreciate the contact with the students, but especially their smiles when they regain self-confidence and feel capable of progressing.

It is a privilege to experience these moments that allow students to open up, express themselves and discover new perspectives.

I offer you a new learning experience.

The focus is on practical application and theory is only introduced where intuition reaches its limits.

Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, my tailor-made lessons will accelerate your language acquisition in a positive learning environment.

You can book a complete course with regular sessions or individual lessons to overcome a specific problem, such as pronunciation or a particular point in grammar.

Learning a foreign language is not a linear process that consists of memorising a list of words, and speaking a foreign language is not an oral translation exercise.

There are two types of approaches to acquiring knowledge:

When asked what year follows 1999, you can immediately answer 2000 without having to think for a long time and, above all, without having memorised each number individually, starting with 1, 2, 3 ... You know that numbers are formed according to a certain pattern. With only ten digits, you can form an infinite number of numbers and always know which number comes next.

When it comes to the alphabet, words and sentences, it's more or less the same, but school pedagogy, school textbooks and regular lessons still follow the rote learning approach. In the lessons I propose, you will learn to use patterns because this is more efficient and faster.

Learning is easy, but unlearning bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible.

My offer is aimed at both young people and adults who want to learn German or improve their knowledge without wasting time on nonsensical school methods.

I offer individual or group lessons for German. The methods are based on cognitive science and, in particular, comparative linguistics. My flexible programme can be tailored to your individual needs. The programme focuses on your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life.

What is particularly important to me:

motivating my students and help them establish a learning rhythm;
encouraging their creativity;
helping them become more familiar with the language;
teaching them the letters and their sounds;
strengthening their memory by training their phonological loop;
teaching sentence building plans instead of memorising sentences;
explaining how language works so that my students can become independent as quickly as possible.

I look forward to meeting you.

I offer repetitive courses in German and English, according to your school program or simply out of a desire to develop in these languages.
Having obtained my gymnasium maturity certificate in June 2020, I have an intermediate level B1 in these two languages with a small advance on English. I have vocabulary in both languages very favorable for improvement in the language we work.

Hello, my name is Andrés and I'm a Master student based in the Grand Geneva area. I have been teaching children English, Spanish & German for the last years.

I believe that children absorb the most out of a language when they are in constant contact with somebody that masters it and when they learn it through play.

I will ensure that your kids feel reassured by empowering them to co-create and learn from each other, embracing a motivation spirit, ensuring effective communication and making sure all diverse voices are being heard and taken into account.

Looking forward to hearing from you!
