Manuel

I had 2 weeks to prepare to do the SDS exam aiming at an A2. I booked daily preparation classes with Manuel during those 2 weeks. After 2-3 classes I immediately felt I had progressed heavily. Manuel has a very good technique, is very efficient, engaged and always comes prepared and provides excellent materials via different online platforms. I have now done the exam and received my results. I obtained an A2 in the listening and speaking section and a B1 in the writing and reading comprehension. These results are even better than I expected! I would recommend anyone preparing for the SDS exam to book classes with Manuel.

Manuel is a truly outstanding tutor: knowledgeable, prepared and professional. What I appreciate the most, however, is his compassionate approach. Manuel always seems to know when I need correction, when encouragement, when reassurance. In my experience, that's a rare gift! I can't recommend him enough.

Excellent interview perpetration lesson. Manuel took the time to review my CV and write personal questions as well as go though a list of frequent and difficult questions. Manuel covered not only the German language aspect of the interview, but also mindset and approach. Very much a coach as well as a teacher. Shortly after the lesson I received a word document with all of the questions we went through and also feedback from the lesson. I couldn't be more impressed with the quality of the lesson. Highly recommended.

Really good pace, it is clear Manuel cares a lot.

Manuel knows of a lot of good techniques and resources for learning German and for improving pronunciation. I benefitted a lot today from practicing my interview questions and answers in German. Again, today, my confidence has increased, and I feel myself making progress. During the sessions, I learn and train skills, then I practice what I've learned in my free time. This approach is working well.

I demonstrated German conversation skills during this lesson which, at the beginning of the lesson, I didn't think I could do. Manuel's approach to the lesson is very effective and he used the time well so that I learned a lot during the session. I feel that I am making good progress. I gained more confidence in my German language skills because of this session.
