Hallo :) I'm Pirmin, I was born and grew up in Germany, but lived in the Netherlands and Kenya and am now living in Belgium. I'm a freelance software developer and coding tutor. I enjoy talking about different cultures, languages, self-improvement, science, psychology, entrepreneurship, or having a good discussion about any subject.
Ich als Lehrkraft
I started teaching different subjects many years ago and still do today because I very much enjoy teaching people. I grew up in Germany and completed my computer science degree there. Therefore, I can help you from not knowing a single word of German up to a very advanced academic level. I use English every day at work and am on a native level (C2). I also learned Dutch to a conversational level, a bit of Swahili, and am currently learning French (B1) and Spanish (A2).
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
We will focus on speaking and listening as much as possible in our lessons. From learning languages myself, I know how important it is to have comprehensible and compelling input that is appropriate for your level, as well as active retrieval practice like speaking. This is much more effective for naturally acquiring the language compared to drilling grammar. Doing Crosstalk (popularized by Dreaming Spanish) is also possible. If you have a specific goal like a vacation or work topic, we can focus on that. I'm also happy to provide you with additional materials outside our lessons.
If you're interested, please book a first trial lesson on this page!
Bis bald! See you! À bientot! Tot ziens!

German Conversation/Speaking Practice or Crosstalk Total Beginners to Very Advanced (A1-C2)
Pirmin is an exceptionally patient person. I'm re-learning German after having forgotten a lot of it, and it's wonderful to have someone give me all the time I need to search for a word in the recesses of my brain. I really appreciate his support!

Auswahl der Lehrkraft
Pirmi ist ein hervorragender Tutor, er hilft einem, mehr Selbstvertrauen zu entwickeln. Er ist zudem sehr hoffnungsvoll, geduldig und wartet, bis man ganze Sätze gebildet hat, um einem dann seine Vorschläge oder Korrekturen zu geben. Er ist zudem sehr proaktiv und schreibt einem nach der Stunde ein paar Nachrichten, um einem Hausaufgaben oder Tips zu empfehlen. Als neue Tutor hast du dich sehr gut geschlagen!

I had another wonderful session with Pirmin. As usual, he was incredibly helpful and patient. He assisted me in finding the correct words and corrected my mistakes, which greatly improved my confidence in speaking German. Additionally, Pirmin helped me build my vocabulary related to ordering in a café, making the lesson both practical and enjoyable

I had a fantastic CrossTalk session with Pirmin today! He kindly allowed me to record it, which has been incredibly helpful. Watching it a second, third, and even fourth time has allowed me to pick up new details with each pass, deepening my comprehension.
For example, during the live session, I didn’t catch that he lived on the 8th floor of his dormitory when he was at University. On my second watch, I heard and understood it. By the third viewing, I realized that the beginning of his story was actually a continuation of our previous CrossTalk session—something I had completely missed the first time!
I firmly believe in Comprehensible Input as a learning method, and Pirmin excels at providing clear, engaging input that meets me at my absolute beginner level of German. His approach has been incredibly effective for me, and I highly recommend him to any student looking to learn German, especially beginners.
Thanks, Pirmin, for another great session!
