Private German Lessons
Master German With Confidence For Fun, Business Or School Using My Innovative “Learning German Speed Method”.
Homes for Ukraine Appeal
Until recently, I worked in Odesa, Ukraine, on a project to implement my much sought-after “Learning German Speed Method” within Ukrainian schools, when half a dozen Russian cruise missiles flew past my penthouse apartment in Odesa’s Arcadia district on the morning of February 24th, 2022. Since my breakfast was so rudely interrupted on that fateful day, friends and I have personally evacuated two Ukrainian orphanages from Kharkiv and Kramatorsk and found host families for over 137 Ukrainian mothers and children within the U.K., Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the U.S.A., Georgia, and Israel.
Each week, I also voluntarily teach German as a foreign language to 100 enthusiastic Ukrainian children and teenagers aged 7 to 18 via Skype and Teams.
If you live in the United Kingdom and want to also help Ukrainian mothers and children, you can record your interest as part of the U.K. government’s supporting “Homes for Ukraine” scheme. Alternatively, you can assist Ukrainian war refugees by visiting the very informative Ukrainian Institute’s charitiy and assistance webpages. Thank you for your kindness and Slava Ukraine!
