Everything I could have asked for in a tutor!! Learning a lot while also eroding some of my fears around language learning.

Super Lehrer!
Ich arbeite schon seit langem mit ihm und jeder Unterricht ist immer ein Vergnügen.
Er ist sehr professionell und kann immer auf meine Fragen antworten.
Seine Kenntnisse helfen mir wirklich die Einzelheiten der Sprache zu verstehen. Jeder Unterricht ist strukturiert.
Er ist einfach für mich der beste Lehrer und ich kann mir nicht vorstellen mit einer anderen Person zu arbeiten.
Danke!

I took two lessons to prepare myself for a job interview. Robert knew exactly where to jump in and help me out - also with technical terms within my field of pensions.

Really enjoyed my trial lesson with Robert. It was the right pace and the format (via Skype) allows me to work around my schedule. I have booked my next lesson and ordered the text books. Definitely recommend.
I am a certified TestDaF and telc examiner. I specialise in test preparation (Goethe-Zertifikat, TestDaF, telc, ÖSD, fide, etc.).
I offer both general German language lessons and specific courses of grammar, conversation, writing, test preparation and interview preparation. My focus is on intermediate and advanced German learners, who need a higher level of accuracy and fluency in terms of exposition, argumentation and self-expression.
Qualifications & Experience
I have been teaching German online since 2016. Prior to that, I taught at one of the leading language schools in Berlin for over six years. I hold a Magister (German equivalent to the master's degree) in German history and literature from Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin (2001) and a certificate of teaching German as a foreign language from Goethe-Institut, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (2010). Before becoming a language teacher, I was a journalist for six years at a local newspaper in Potsdam.
Teaching Approach
Language lessons can be fun, but language-learning is certainly time-consuming and occasionally frustrating. I am therefore aiming at establishing a collaborative relationship with you and keeping you motivated and inspired along the way.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
● Proficiency evaluation
