>> I'll be on a break in October and won't be available for lessons. I'll be back in November and look forward to seeing you then. Feel free to reach out for any individual requests. <<
I’m Thomas Inauen, a 38-year-old from Appenzell, Switzerland, currently living in Tokyo, Japan. My journey began as a trained carpenter, but my passion for martial arts and acrobatics led me to explore the finer details of movement. Alongside this, I’ve been practicing Aikido for many years. I work as an independent instructor for martial arts, acrobatics, and languages. I’m passionate about languages and how mastering them opens doors, and I’m here to help you too.
Ich als Lehrkraft
I’ve been a dedicated italki tutor for 4 years, gaining valuable experience with diverse students. Additionally, I have over 8 years of experience coaching acrobatics online with a global audience. I’ve also assisted Japanese Aikido teachers in Switzerland as a translator. These experiences have enriched my teaching skills and deepened my understanding of effective communication.
Recently, I launched my YouTube channel, 'Swiss German Storytime,' featuring engaging content on reading and listening comprehension. I also run a Patreon page with Swiss German materials to support your learning.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
In my classes, we will primarily focus on conversation, as I believe it’s one of the most effective ways to learn a language. We can discuss any topics that interest you, and I will provide corrections and introduce new vocabulary along the way. Feel free to ask any questions, and if you’re facing challenges with grammar, we can address those together.
If you have specific topics or questions you’d like to cover, please let me know before the lesson and share any relevant materials, such as PDFs or pictures. I’m open to suggestions and aim to create the best possible learning experience for you!
I look forward to seeing you in class soon!
Best regards,
Thomas

Informal Tutoring | German Lesson With Learning Materials & Homework
I can highly recommend Thomas for Swiss German lessons. There are not so many training materials and teachers working in this area (dialekt) and Thomas does it very well - he is patient when I try to practice , stays focused the entire lesson, makes good examples to explain a rule, collects all notes , shares exercises/videos - basically whatever is needed to learn and to progress. Many thanks Thomas for your support and great contribution to make Swiss German much closer to those who struggles to learn it.

Thomas is an outstanding German tutor. He is always engaged and 100% focused during each class. He is easy to talk to and makes learning enjoyable. The notes he shares after every session are meticulously prepared and have significantly helped me improve my language skills.

Thomas' conversational style of teaching, with accompanying notes, is very encouraging and effective. My German speaking and listening skills have noticeably improved after only 2 months of lessons.

I am really enjoying our casual conversations and all the extra links and reading material provided by Thomas. Swiss German doesn't sound so foreign now and I can understand much more than before. Thomas is patient and provides good explanations of new words, now I just need to study more!

Thomas was a very kind teacher. This was my first German conversation trial lesson, and I was very nervous, but Thomas did very well at keeping the conversation moving while providing feedback and notes throughout.
