Grown up and raised in Germany's capital city - Berlin - I do enjoy learning languages very much - just as I love teaching them. :-) Another great passion of mine is traveling. Whenever I have free time, I am "away for a trip." I enjoy very much getting in touch with people from different countries to hear their stories & experiences - we can always learn from each other! :-)
Ich als Lehrkraft
I've helped Germans improve their English for 9 years and have taught German for almost 8 years. First, I started acquiring students on a local basis in Berlin and then offered to tutor people abroad. Later I taught German to foreign prisoners in the JVA-Tegel (Tegel prison); thus, I learned how to behave professionally and understand even in stressful situations. My knowledge of German grammar goes beyond the C1 and C2 levels, and I am sure that I can help you improve yours without much effort and, more importantly, without pressure! I am patient and use several different techniques to teach.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
** Informal Tutoring **
Let's speak German! :-) While speaking, you will overcome your struggles so that you can step out of your comfort zone.
** Guided Lesson **
- Based on the CEFR
- 14 units à 28-36 lessons
- Every subject is divided into 2 lessons, sometimes a student needs more time, though
- The student gets access to a language learning software with tons of material, such as recordings, grammatical explanations, games, conjugation tables & intuitive exercises
- The student is given feedback after every lesson that provides additional material, and a summarization of the lesson
- Additional support for students who have subject-related questions out of a lesson

Lars is an excellent conversation partner. He has an impressive ability to keep the conversation flowing and engaging without seeming either to control it or to put the pressure on the student. When I started iTalki I worried about filling an entire hour with second-language chat, but our lessons fly by. His corrections are targeted and encouraging.

That I consistently choose Lars as my teacher comes as no surprise: he's acutely aware of verbal and written nuances, knows his grammar through and through and doggedly reminds you of your mistakes to help you along the bumps on your journey to fluency and beyond.

I bought 5 lessons with Lars to prepare me for a trip to Germany with my family. My goal was to not only learn to speak German but to also understand cultural differences, so I did not say or do something embarrassing or offensive. Lars was fantastic. He was patient and prepared for each lesson with specific items to go over to help me interact with people I meet. He also corrected some initial notions I had about how to speak based on apps like Duolingo which is extremely valuable. I would recommend Lars to anyone.
