Hello! My name is Thomas. I'm passionate about people, human development, and communication. I love connecting with people on iTalki and learning, working, and laughing together.지도 경험
I have served as a teacher for the past six years. I have taught in a variety of contexts and roles. My experiences include:
- teaching adults in a language institute
- teaching young children online
- serving as a school leader of a Montessori kindergarten
- teaching youth in a boarding school
- teaching refugee adults
I have more than fifteen years experience learning languages. I have reached a level of A2 to C2 in eight languages. I believe that the most important thing for learning a language is building relationships with others.
For that reason, my intention as a teacher is to be both a professional teacher and a friend to my students.내 강의 및 지도 스타일
I teach lessons 90-100% in the target language.
In my lessons, I do these things:
- give students many chances to speak and express their ideas
- listen carefully and with an open mind
- ask great questions
- speak clearly
- make every sentence I say an informative learning opportunity
- speak at an appropriate level - understandable, stimulating, and sometimes challenging
- laugh, make jokes, and have fun
- follow the student's goals and interests
- recognize the student's effort and hard work
- be accountable - ask for feedback, follow up on goals, and discuss progress
- integrate new content자격증

Thomas is a great teacher! I took speaking classes and that was a really amazing experience. Although speaking other languages sometimes is really difficult Thomas always found ways to make it easier and comfortable, so lessons with him were more useful and interesting.

This was another great lesson/discussion. Thomas is good at building my confidence and getting me to speak a lot of the language. The discussions are always very enjoyable and engaging.

Ich genieße meinen Unterricht bei Thomas sehr. Er ist geduldig, flexibel und sehr professionell. Die Zeit vergeht schnell, weil der Unterricht mit Thomas Spaß macht, abwechslungsreich und praktisch ist. In unserer ersten Stunde fragte er mich nach meinen Zielen und Motivationen, die deutsche Sprache zu lernen. Durch unseren Unterricht habe ich mehr über den täglichen Gebrauch der deutschen Sprache gelernt. Ich fühle mich sicherer beim Sprechen im Alltag. Ich bin sehr zufrieden und würde Thomas weiter empfehlen.
