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.

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!

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 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!

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 greatly enjoyed my class with Pirmin today! He has introduced me to several language learning concepts that truly resonate with me. We had already discussed CrossTalk and Comprehensible Input, and today, we explored both TPR and TPRS—additional tools that align perfectly with my learning style. I've been searching for this type of language learning for years, and it's incredibly exciting to discover research that supports and complements my approach. I highly recommend Pirmin to anyone who is an absolute beginner in German, like me. His teaching style makes the learning process engaging, effective, and enjoyable!
