My name is Christian. I am a 38-year-old German native living near Berlin, Germany.
I am teaching German as a foreign language for over 6 years professionally and also have a background in teaching and design. Because of this I use my own materials I created in InDesign.
When I am not teaching I spend my time honing my skills as an artist, writer and game designer, stream and continue to further educate myself about art, linguistics and other scientific fields. I also like games (PC, Tabletop-RPGs, Switch), memes, music, history, plants, films and shows, and are generally interested in many topics.
Reschedules are fine but not on the day before our lesson. Doesn't apply if you're sick :)
Tôi với tư cách là giáo viên
As someone who used to stutter and dislike languages (and especially the pesky grammar), getting into intense-self-studies to improve my English became my origin story. I worked as teacher for English in my hometown for 2 years afterward, after acquiring a C2 certificate from Cambridge.
This encouraged me to also intensely study and re-fresh the German grammar, phonetics and teaching techniques (didactic) before starting to teach it online full-time. (it included a lot of head-shaking, and I’m a native)
Through that, and my pursuit to master art I don’t believe in inherited talent, but pursued interest. Everyone can, through dedication, practice and fun, learn to speak a foreign language.
Phong cách dạy & bài học của tôi
While teaching I adapt the lesson to your strengths, weaknesses, and abilities and structure it along with your goals and needs. This can include exercises and materials for grammar, pronunciation, role-plays for daily conversation, job interviews, working environments and language exams (Goethe, TestDaF, Telc). I can also create new materials, exercises and additional courses on Memrise to help you to achieve your goal outside of our lessons. But due past experiences I do not teach children under the age of 17 anymore. You'll also need to have a decent level of English.
I am keeping my availability on Italki updated and block out slots where I teach a client on another platform already.

I had an excellent lesson with Christian in which he helped me prepare for a job interview. He is a very friendly, perceptive teacher who takes his profession seriously, and gave me helpful feedback for how I can improve my responses. I highly recommend him for anyone looking to prepare for similar scenarios.

This was my first lesson with Christian after our trial lesson. I learned a lot today particularly regarding word order. Christian is a very good teacher. He has a lot of material that he has designed himself. He also has a great sense of humor.
