Interest topicTravelFoodHistory
My name is Florian, I am currently 30 years old, and I was born in Düsseldorf, Germany.
I absolutely admire learning languages, diving into foreign cultures and travelling around the world. Having started a pretty monolingual life, I now cannot live a single day without speaking another language and want to share that passion with you.
My goal is to show everybody that learning a language is like obtaining the key to a locked door that can lead you to a whole new world of experiences, history, culture, personal stories and humor. It's not comparable to anything you did in school or university.
Me as a Teacher
German obviously is my native language, and I basically have a whole life of experience speaking English at work or privately. Russian is my 3rd strongest language, and although I have no certificates confirming that, I can teach you that language up to a pretty high level, as you can see from my intro video.
Besides that, I am also very interested and knowledgeable in the field of linguistics and I can help you with pronunciation and accents on a semi-professional level by applying things like the IPA, speech training and logopedic practices.
Having said that, I do not specialize in teaching children and I very much recommend looking for a teacher that is experienced in that field.
My lessons & teaching style
I am a very easy-going person and I have an interactive teaching style. There is no advantage in being overly formal and distanced!
What keeps you from learning a language?
→ An old-fashioned system used by most institutions
→ Learning under pressure for exams
→ Using methods and techniques that don't fit you
→ Criticism, bad grades and exposure in front of a class
→ Not enjoying the process and not having any fun!
How can we change that?
→ Making the target language a part of you
→ Setting your goals and reaching them together
→ Finding the learning technique that fits you
→ Individually designed courses
→ Improving through mistakes
→ Not translating, but feeling the language

Пишу свой отзыв на русском языке. Именно для русскоговорящих людей, которые ищут репетитора по немецкому языку. Мы занимаемся с Флорианом уже очень давно. Беру уроки с Флорианом как дополнительные уроки к курсам по немецкому языку, которые я посещаю в Германии. Поверьте, за один урок с Флорианом вы столько информации почерпнете, сколько за недели две на курсах немецкого не узнаете. Всё досконально, всё подробно, всё с примерами. Произношение - не проблема (как ставить язык, на какой этот звук похож из русского языка)! Примеры - сколько хочешь и всевозможные вариации ОТ НОСИТЕЛЯ (как говорят, где так говорят, как уже НЕ ГОВОРЯТ). Домашняя работа - сколько хочешь с обязательно проверкой! Флориан очень эрудирован, очень глубоко объясняет тему, очень хорошо говорит по-русски. Очень советую и рекомендую Флориана как преподавателя по немецкому языку!! Много ОЧЕНЬ - но это действительно так! :))
PS: до него тестировал нескольких преподавателей по немецкому здесь, есть с кем сравнить!

Great lesson: homework correction, grammar, and talking. Wouldn't imagine better way of learning German than with Florian. He's a really good teacher.
Ещё раз посоветую Флориана тем, кто изучает немецкий язык с русского. Флориан прекрасно владеет русским и сможет разъяснить вам все тонкости немецкой грамматики, даже если вы не очень хорошо говорите по-английски.

Florian is a patient and supportive teacher. He is very friendly and I feel relaxed and at ease during the lessons, which is the most important thing for me when attempting to speak a different language. I highly recommend him
