What our students say
I've studied German for 25 years and tried every method there is. Taking Thomas's lessons was genuinely worth it — what I learn sticks, even brand-new material, surprisingly well.
Always tailored and attentive, and remarkably flexible — it fits my lifestyle. After each lesson he sends a list of mistakes and vocabulary, which is great for review.
Role-plays based on real-life situations made it feel like chatting. Since the teacher speaks English and Japanese, I could ask about anything I wasn't sure of.
I started from zero and could speak a little within about six months, and hold everyday conversations within a year. You learn through the meaning and roots of words, so it is stress-free.
