German with Elihu C.

I'm a university student in aeronautical engineering. I've lived, worked and studied in Germany, Sweden, and mainland China. I have professional experience in engineering, translation, and music. I've tutored German and Mandarin Chinese at various levels from primary school through university students to professionals. I've helped many language students get up and speaking in a matter of weeks. My teaching style focuses on grasping the system rather than memorizing the details, going out and conversing rather than staying in and studying. My private music students have ranged from children to university music majors. My focus is on conceptual approach and musical expression, rather than cut-and-dry technique. In my experience, students who aim to express emotions through music always learn technique BETTER and FASTER than students who actually focus on technique. Here's to our success as teacher and student! Cheers!
