About Me
italki teacher since Jul 20, 2021InterestsBusiness & FinanceEnvironment & NatureTechArtFilms & TV Series
I also speak English, French, and Spanish fluently, at bilingual level. I've also studied Hebrew, Dutch, Indonesian, Russian, Mandarin Chinese, Japanese, Italian and classical Greek to different degrees. My formal academic background is in TSL, law and grammar. I've lived in Germany (Saarbrücken, Köln and Berlin), France (Paris), Indonesia (Ubud, Bali) and Argentina (Buenos Aires). I'm currently a language student in Russian and Indonesian. My passions are languages, martial arts, acting and film, democracy, nature and its protection, and literature. Practicing kindness is the main thing in life.Me as a Teacher
I'm an officially certified native German tutor with 17 years of experience. I prepare for Goethe A2, B1, B2, C1 and C2. TELC and TestDaF. Job interviews!
What makes me a (good, ok, let's say it) professional teacher is of course the technical knowledge and 17 years of experience, but mainly my interest in other people. I genuinely desire for people to reach the next level. with fun, creativity.
I love working with kids, they force me to stay curious and fun.
The Business world - love exploring opportunities and understanding all the different fields of corporate operation.
Perhaps my specialty is in conversation and preparing for exams with almost 100% (99.5%) of all students passing.My lessons & teaching style
German for life, work, school, exam: the lessons are CUSTOMIZED.
Conversation German
The lessons are divided in 3 parts, but we'll always talk a lot.
1 /3 - Conversation improvisation:
We improvise talking about all possible subjects of interest to the student, and we`ll take vocabulary and grammar notes. I use those notes to produce exercises.
1/3 - Correcting
We`ll correct your diary, grammar exercises, creative texts, your test, etc. I`ll give you assignments based on those corrections.
1/3 Exploring
We`ll discuss a song, a film, a text, a grammar subject, the news, or a video together. Always more fun.
FOR WORK
We'll use role playing and examine graphs, interviews and news.My teaching material

Отличный учитель для подготовки с экзаменам: разнообразные упражнения на любой вкус, фокусирование на слабых местах, хорошие примеры и гибкость в подходе. То, что нужно для успешной подготовки в короткий срок!

Max is amazing at encouraging and motivating. After only a few classes, my ability to form sentences and pronunciation have already improved significantly. He's quick to provide materials for extra practice and provides great, easy to understand explanations. His enthusiasm for language and teaching is quite infectious and would recommend anyone to learn from him!

Max is a great teacher and a great person. He is willing to help, no matter how crazy the challenge is (he helped me to prepare for B1 Exam with my significantly lower level...).
Thank you!
Highly recommended :)
