Thema von InteresseEssenGeschichteWissenschaft
Hi, I’m Sievert. I currently live in Berlin but I’m originally from Schleswig-Holstein, the northernmost state of Germany. Therefore my natural accent probably has a slight northern twang to it, though not extremely so (and the sounds of Standard German are based on a northern-ish accent anyway).
Besides languages I’m interested in cooking, software development and IT. I have also recently started reading more fictional literature (though I still have a lot of catching up to do even when it comes to the Western literary “canon”).
Ich als Lehrkraft
I have studied some dozen or so languages to varying degrees, so I’m quite experienced with various methods of learning. I have also taught classes in university before, both language and otherwise.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
For the moment I offer conversation classes for levels A2 and above, but if you have questions on vocabulary and grammar I will be happy to help with those as well. I am the type of person who enjoys looking for patterns in the grammar and little nuance differences. So if that’s your thing as well, I’ll be happy to help you in your exploration!
I prefer to do my classes entirely in German wherever possible and only resort to a separate teaching language briefly if necessary. This helps keep your brain in “German mode”. If you prefer that fallback teaching language to be Chinese rather than English, that can be arranged as well.
We had a relaxed conversation about language learning and about our shared interest in languages and in the Chinese speaking world, Sievert helped me when I had trouble expressing myself adequately. Thanks for a productive class!

We had such a pleasant conversation on Game of Thrones and I was recommended some great (fantasy/sci-fi/general) novels which genuinely made my day!!

We talked about my recent trip to Taiwan and exchanged our experience and observations about the country. Sievert helped me when I struggled finding the right expression. Thanks for a productive class!
