Meet Your Instructor
Hi. I’m Michael (51) and I used to teach in several language schools in different countries until I got frustrated with the still common system of teaching German and developed my own highly efficient and enjoyable approach.’
My beautifully analytical and creative mind helped me develop wonderfully efficient German courses with unique and innovative learning techniques.
I'm excellent at making complex topics easy to understand.
The SmarterGerman approach to learning German can also save you precious time by…
- teaching German with help of English which makes everything very easy to understand for you
- teaching you how to use grammar without thinking instead of blindly memorising rules or tables
- engaging you in a thrilling mystery crime story which makes you want to get to the next lesson
- offering relevant vocabulary in context instead of memorising random word lists
- enabling you to study 100% online independent of any live-events
- enabling you to study truly on your own without being distracted by others
In all language schools that I worked for in the past, the teaching philosophy was to only use German in the classroom, even for instructions and explanations. In my professional and personal experience, German grammar explained solely in German is very difficult to grasp fully, especially when you are a beginner or intermediate student. Such an approach can create a lot of frustration and confusion in students. In my opinion this can be mostly avoided by using English as the teaching language which is why SmarterGerman teaches you German with help of English.
Gain back your autonomy and enjoy the learning process and your success.
My courses are easily accessible and guarantee solid results.
SmarterGerman in 2025 is a one man show but it is the result of the cooperation of many wonderful and engaged people including many of my learners.
I want you to fall in love with the product, my teaching style and my business philosophy.
It’s your feedback, the development of new technology and constantly arising insights into the psychology of the language learner that help me improve my work even further. Without you, SmarterGerman wouldn’t exist.
Danke!
