I offer you a new learning experience.

The focus is on practical application and theory is only introduced where intuition reaches its limits.

Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, my tailor-made lessons will accelerate your language acquisition in a positive learning environment.

You can book a complete course with regular sessions or individual lessons to overcome a specific problem, such as pronunciation or a particular point in grammar.

Learning a foreign language is not a linear process that consists of memorising a list of words, and speaking a foreign language is not an oral translation exercise.

There are two types of approaches to acquiring knowledge:

When asked what year follows 1999, you can immediately answer 2000 without having to think for a long time and, above all, without having memorised each number individually, starting with 1, 2, 3 ... You know that numbers are formed according to a certain pattern. With only ten digits, you can form an infinite number of numbers and always know which number comes next.

When it comes to the alphabet, words and sentences, it's more or less the same, but school pedagogy, school textbooks and regular lessons still follow the rote learning approach. In the lessons I propose, you will learn to use patterns because this is more efficient and faster.

Learning is easy, but unlearning bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible.

My offer is aimed at both young people and adults who want to learn German or improve their knowledge without wasting time on nonsensical school methods.

I offer individual or group lessons for German. The methods are based on cognitive science and, in particular, comparative linguistics. My flexible programme can be tailored to your individual needs. The programme focuses on your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life.

What is particularly important to me:

motivating my students and help them establish a learning rhythm;
encouraging their creativity;
helping them become more familiar with the language;
teaching them the letters and their sounds;
strengthening their memory by training their phonological loop;
teaching sentence building plans instead of memorising sentences;
explaining how language works so that my students can become independent as quickly as possible.


I look forward to meeting you.

My name is Kiran and I am a student currently studying at St George's International school. English is my first language and I am also fluent in German, French and Luxembourgish. Although I will be graduating this year, I feel like I am able to help students improve their language skills. As an 18 year old, I feel like I would be able to have a better connection to students wether they are in a public school or international school. Tutoring in my school, I have felt that students feel more comfortable and are more engaged in school subjects when able to communicate with a tutor with a similar age.
I would be willing to teach English as a second language to public school students. I am also available to tutor in German and French as I received A*s in both subjects at GCSE Level, as well as 2 As at AS Level.

I am offering German classes to children, teenagers and adults who want to improve their level of German or are interested in starting to learn the language. I have a degree in Psychology, and a master in Philosophy. Both allow me a great understanding of the language, and a better adjustment to the needs of each student.

In a culturally rich country like Luxembourg where a large number of cross-border commuters come to work, it is very important to be able to talk and communicate with each other.

If you are looking for language lessons/language tutoring, then you have come to the right place. I speak a total of 5 languages (Portuguese, Luxembourgish, German, French and English).

Translating is not a problem for me, which makes learning a language even easier.

I offer German classes from A1 to C1 levels, either online or on-site in Luxembourg, using communicative language teaching methods and modern online learning materials. It’s a myth that learning German is all about mastering grammar. From the very first lesson, it’s absolutely possible—and worthwhile—to start communicating in German!
