“This is my third real attempt at improving my German…”
Manni has been teaching me weekly and aiding and directing my own learning for the last four months. This is my third real attempt at improving my German; previous lessons I had with larger classes left me unmotivated with often structural aspects of the language not explained well.
“I think my approach to learning has been changed and improved…”
Manni explains new concepts clearly and allows plenty of time for me to ask questions. To really learn something I still need to put in extra time and homework, and his explanations provide a firm foundation to this process. I think my approach to learning has been changed and improved, which is probably one of the most crucial (and often overlooked) aspects of learning a new language.
The one-to-one lessons allow a clear focus on my pronunciation. I think this is particularly important, and made me realise quickly areas to improve which I think would often be overlooked in other classes.
“Manni provides a very wide range of tailored online exercises and material…”
Manni provides a very wide range of tailored online exercises and material, and we often discuss how we would like the lessons to proceed and what is important for me. Our shared online log of classwork and homework streamlines and adds direction to what I am learning. It feels more like a chat than a strict lesson! I enjoy the weekly classes, and the time really passes quickly.
