What other students say ...
”I had the pleasure of Alexander’s German lessons for 8 months with the purpose of relearning to speak German after more than twenty years away from Germany. Alexander facilitated that in a brilliant manner allowing a lot of practice in speaking German while at the same time correcting mistakes as the conversation took place. An added benefit was many highly interesting conversations due to Alexander’s broad areas of interest and insights.”

A human approach to learning
“Through Alex, I gained not only more language proficiency than
I thought possible but a deep appreciation of the German language from a native speaker. Lessons and topics were tailored to my needs and he has a wealth of learning resources at his finger tips. We went seamlessly from grammatical topics to written text to day-to- day conversations. The chat history is a very nice resource that I continue to use. Most of all, Alex is gifted in making you feel comfortable and the sessions are fun and motivating.”

“I had German classes with Alex for over two years, and they were an absolute pleasure. He is both a knowledgeable and pleasant language teacher, and besides leaning and improving my German language skills, to the point I am now confident to use it on my daily work activities and meetings, I also had a lot of fun talking to him.”

Thank you again for all the support and practical insights!“

„Mein lieber Alexander.
Nach fast zwei Jahren Deutschunterricht bei Ihnen muss ich sagen, dass ich mit Ihren Tipps und Hinweisen nicht nur viele praktische Aspekte gelernt habe, sondern vor allem die Schönheit und den Adel der deutschen Sprache bewundern und respektieren gelernt habe.
Ich hoffe, dass andere Menschen das Glück und die Gelegenheit haben, Sie als Lehrer zu haben. Ich wünsche Ihnen viel persönlichen und beruflichen Erfolg.
Eine große Umarmung”

“I highly recommend Alexander as a German teacher. As a student, I have had the pleasure of working with Alexander for the past year as a beginner. He is a driven and organized teacher who develops stimulating relationships with his students.
Alexander has always been driven to develop his skills as a teacher, trying to accommodate his students based on their cultural backgrounds. I am Italian and he has always tried to understand what my difficulties were and we have always faced them together. I never felt whipped during the lessons and during the exercises because he was always there to support me and give me the right push. His talent for teaching simple concepts, as well as more advanced topics, are both truly superior. Thanks again Alexander for introducing me to the German language and culture.”
Anna, Italy 🇮🇹
“I can warmly recommend Alexander for fast and immersive learning of German. Beforehand I was sceptical whether learning online could work, as compared to a physical class – but it was actually very effective, since Alexander uses dialogue on the screen together with suggestions / corrections / spelling in the meeting chat – which makes for a good learning experience. Furthermore, Alexander was good at keeping dialogue interesting and engaged, so I felt motivated to do my best to express and understand German.”
Michael, Denmark 🇩🇰
“Over the course of a year, I embarked on this linguistic endeavor to enhance my German language proficiency for work-related projects. Enrolling in German language classes with Alexander has been a very pleasant journey. Alexander tailored the classes perfectly to my work needs, whether it was honing industry-specific vocabulary or practicing conversational skills crucial for my projects.
One of Alexander's standout qualities is his ability to provide explanations fluently in English when needed. This seamless transition between languages greatly facilitated my comprehension and accelerated my progress. Additionally, he often provides the historical context behind certain German phrases or words that adds a layer of depth to my understanding, making the learning experience not only informative but also very interesting at times.
Furthermore, he is very flexible with scheduling and always quick to respond to emails, often within a day, underscoring his dedication to ensuring a smooth and convenient learning process.
Highly recommended!”

“I highly recommend Alexander as a teacher for German language.
Last year I (Dutch) got allocated to a project with a German Customer. As it was 30 ago that I used any German in high school I sought advice from colleagues. They highly recommended Alexander. After a short discussion with him on my goal (practice conversation while refreshing grammar) we started. His teaching style is for me very effective and was continuously tailored to my needs. He has a strong focus on practical language skills and created an engaging learning environment. He connected to my daily interaction with the customer, provided insights in general German culture and practices and supported discussions on wide range of topics.
Whether you are a beginner or in need to refine your German language skills Alexander is an excellent choice for a personalized, effective and fun course.”

Vielen Dank für den Deutschkurs. Insbesondere die persönliche Betreuung und die Möglichkeit, selbst Themenvorschläge zu machen, haben ihn für mich zu einem Erfolg gemacht.
Auch die Kombination Sprech- und Schreibübungen war sehr gut und hat mir geholfen, in meinem eigenen Tempo mich aktiv mit der Deutsche Sprache auseinanderzusetzen.
Sehr empfehlenswert.
Met vriendelijke groeten, Sipke, Netherlands 🇳🇱
“Alexander was great! We talked about many, many (funny) topics while still being able to find the balance between humour and the more serious learning. Alexander has a great feel of what you as a student need and is very flexible in both his approach and his scheduling times. I sincerely recommend him as a teacher of German Class.”
Danke Alex, wir haben Spass gemacht!”

“My one-on-one German lessons with Alexander von Michael have been very useful. The instruction is clear, personalized, and well-paced, leading to noticeable improvement in my speaking, grammar, and vocabulary. We have used focused and practicable examples relevant to my day to day life to improve my German. Additionally, Alexander has provided a crucial cultural context to speaking and understanding the German language- essential for communicating in a German-speaking country. I highly recommend these lessons for anyone looking to make real progress.“

"Alex's approach to language instruction is lively and wide-ranging, comprising books and other print media, videos and free-style conversation. He creates a learning atmosphere that is always relaxed, humorous where appropriate, without his ever losing sight of his teaching goals; he takes learners’ wishes and suggestions into consideration and responds to individual questions in an enriching way. Both the clients’ previous knowledge and their potentials are carefully assessed throughout. One of Alex's central concerns is to significantly increase these potentials, and he has a great gift for doing so.
In this way, learners can observe real progress even in a short space of time.
I could always count on his competence, experience and reliable MO. I wish to thank Alex for the successful collaboration and can recommend him without reservation!"
Katarina, Czech Republic 🇨🇿
"This was my first attempt to learn German and I really enjoyed our sessions. Additional to focus on books he was also focusing on daily basis conversations that I need in real life which was super helpful.
I can recommend if anyone wants to learn a language from the beginning.
Thank you, Alexander!"

"I just wanted to thank you for your time and dedication, it's such a hard language to learn, but I believe you have a very interesting method, explaining the why behind everything. It was really appreciated.
Thank you!"
Ana, Brazil 🇧🇷
"As Alexander's online student for German language I must admit that he fairly focuses on conversations and encourages strongly to learn by speaking and trying to express yourself even though you make mistakes. Those are of course discussed and corrected but the essence of Alexanders classes is to break the language barrier and start to communicate freely. I would recommend lessons with Alexander to anyone that has some intermediate level language skills or was advanced but had a long break and wants to refresh his or her skills, just like in my case. And please bear in mind that he has an impressive ability to remain patient while encouraging progress."
