About me - English
My name is Johann Hein, and I have been a tutor since 2009. Teaching is not just a job for me, it’s my passion. I am originally from Germany and graduated from Heidelberg University, where I gained a deep understanding of my field. I have a strong passion for travel and sports, and I strive to bring these interests into my lessons, making them more engaging and dynamic. My goal is to help students not only learn a new language or subject but also to develop a love for learning itself, enabling them to confidently apply their knowledge in real-world situations.
Qualifications & Experience
I have over 15 years of experience as a tutor. Since 2009, I have worked with students at various levels, from beginners to advanced, helping them achieve their academic goals. I graduated from Heidelberg University in 2008 with a degree in Germanistik im Kulturvergleich. Throughout my career, I have taught both in educational institutions and online, allowing me to gather diverse experience. My students have achieved significant success, whether in exam preparation or improving conversational skills.
Teaching Approach
My teaching methodology is centered around a personalized approach to each student. I believe that effective learning requires understanding the unique needs and goals of every student. My lessons include a balanced mix of conversational practice, grammar, and writing exercises, enabling students to develop all aspects of the language.
