German with Native Speaker - Continuous and systematic practice

Translated by GoogleSee original

From 39.27 £ /h

I am teaching German to beginners and advanced learners, with a focus on the context in which the learners would like to apply the language.

There is also a special emphasis on defining those parts of acquiring German skills that need improvement, and then working out specific exercises to fill the gaps!

About Me

I was born and raised in Austria and studied in Boston to receive my Bachelor in Saxophone Jazz performance with Frank Tiberi and George Garzone. Thereafter I studied at the Conservatoire in Paris with Francois Theberge and at the Conservatoire in The Hague with John Ruocco. I play alto saxophone and drums and guitar in two other projects.

Saxophone Lessons, Jazz Improvisation and Repertoire

41.05 £ /h

I am a graduate from Berklee College of Music and the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague and I am a very reliable and uplifting teacher who can teach you the ins and outs of the instrument. Whether you want to learn your favourite songs or develop an advanced Jazz repertoire - we can work it out!

Songwriting, Music Production, helping with the Creative Process

41.05 £ /h

I can support you with your Songwriting and Production work by providing theoretical approaches and possibilities, but also, to help acknowledge the limitations and obstacles that all creatives have to face. Music, in my opinion, is a very intimate work and looking too much for a product instead of getting involved in the personal creative process is not everyone's expectation. But it is much more interesting if you want to find something and not just imitate something. It took me a long time to realise that what I was looking for is not what I thought I was looking for! It is indeed a journey and making music you do not know yet is very exciting.

I work with various instruments and studio gear; I have knowledge of commons DAWs and notation software; I play saxophone, piano, drums, guitars and I sing.

➤ Whether your objective is personal or professional, speaking is a predominantly physical activity, relying on a body, a voice, a breath, a rhythm (diction), an emotion and above all techniques, tools, a method, a know-how, reflecting the speaker's involvement in his speech.

➤ On the telephone, in a meeting, in front of a client, his family (...), relevant and successful speaking must always be effective and efficient, with clear, simple and impactful messages, creating a balance between the message received and message sent. Coherence between form and content.

➤ So, how to listen and be listened to, convince and be impactful, challenge and make an impression, enhance your content, address your audience effectively and optimize the quality & clarity of the exchange / message? It is precisely a question of going through, applying and deploying practical and effective techniques of oral presentation, of simple intervention or of 'one to one` exchange, aiming to challenge your audience or interlocutor, by taking care of the substance as well as the form. , all in a professional or personal context. For this, there are verbal and non-verbal communication techniques.

But also to work on your leadership & charisma, in a context where empathy and emotional intelligence are at the service of communication.

➤ So, in this context, after having precisely defined your objective & gone through the blockages encountered, here are some examples of themes covered through concrete techniques & a targeted methodology:
✓Practical tools to perfect your rhetoric/repartee

✓Develop not necessarily self-confidence, but the 'appearance' of self-confidence, refine one's listening to respond adequately, open up to the resources of the imagination, free oneself from the rational to then structure one's speech.
✓Relate their communication objectives (project, institution, values, ideas, demands, etc.) to the form of their expression.
✓Learn and put into practice persuasive communication techniques and better understand the perception that others have of oneself. In order to improve his skills of 'self-presentation' and conveyed image.

➤ To master the keys to successful public communication, it is necessary to strengthen the impact of your speeches: by structuring your interventions and taking into account the circumstances and the expectations of the public; by making an impact through storytelling; integrating the psychological and emotional factors of effective oral communication; by integrating emotions into the preparation of the message and arguments; anticipating objections and delicate situations; by preparing and structuring an attractive and convincing presentation framework; by experimenting with the rules of improvisation; by adequately managing difficult situations (...).

➤ In short, each session combines techniques & practical exercises adapted to your daily situations (filmed with your agreement in order to be reviewed, commented on, decoded together live), so that you can apply them immediately, and from the 1st session.

For learners looking to pick up practical Chinese, Chinese is a core tool that links daily communication and lets you experience local culture. As a learner, you need to get a handle on practical expression logic and situational usage to make your conversations smoother and more natural. This course I’ve designed is a practical Chinese class made specifically for Chinese learners.
You’ll learn communication phrases for high-frequency daily scenarios (like ordering food, casual chats), get the hang of basic Chinese character writing logic, and learn to describe your thoughts with fitting expressions. This won’t just boost your basic Chinese listening and speaking skills—it’ll also let you join daily Chinese conversations more comfortably.
