Yves is a talented linguist who has the passion of learning and teaching languages. His class is always well-prepared, full of content, individual-tailored and full of fun. He is a teacher who is punctual, on one side flexible about the need from the student, on the other hand side strict with the quality of the teaching. It is a good experience to learn language with Yves.

Punctual, communicative, talented, a down-to-earth modest friendly genius. The 1 hour class consisted of everyday speaking, asking about my days, correcting my diary (homework), asking me to retell what I had read (homework), revising the last lesson’s materials, doing new translation exercises in different levels. Always lots of new words and grammatical tips. The homework always has varieties, writing, reading and listening, along with great, interesting and up-to-date material, it’s very effective. And Yves is always so encouraging. I still can’t believe I actually know such a person as Yves in real life (online)!

Yves 是我在italki 上见过的最厉害的德语老师。他的课程内容超级多,一个小时的学习内容够我消化一个星期。他的专业能力过硬,任何中德翻译,解释都信手拈来。而且人超级好,情商智商双高。上他的课是种享受,让人感到愉悦。真希望有一天我的的德语也能够像他的中文那么好。

It is exceedingly rare to encounter a linguist as distinguished and accomplished as Yves. As a polyglot myself and fluent in several languages that he has also mastered, I can personally vouch for his impeccable fluency and authentic accent. His linguistic prowess is a clear reflection of his exceptional learning capabilities. Why pass up the opportunity to learn from the finest linguist on iTalki? Yves is not only organized and punctual but also supportive, maintaining a professional yet engaging demeanor. Our initial trial lesson was a harmonious blend of instruction and conversation, where Yves’s passion for languages was palpably evident from the outset.

Yves is very resourceful in providing pronunciation feedback and learning materials. I am looking forward to taking more lessons with him.
