Everyone has their own different way of learning a language and a learning approach that suits them best. In the initial sessions, I seek to find out as much as I can about the learner and proceed from there. If the learner has specific goals and interests, I will tailor my approach and materials around these. My approach is based on the communicative teaching Philosophy of the Goethe Institut as well as the common European framework for languages.I place particular emphasis on communication and practical usage. With more advanced learners, the emphasis is on accuracy, vocabulary and helping them break through the plateau often faced by learners at the advanced level and make fewer mistakes.
What follows is a review from one of my students on another teaching platform, This gives a good overview of my teaching approach as well as an idea of what a typical class looks like.
,,Learning from Oisin exceeded my expectations of a language course, let alone a German language course. Going in to the classes, I had very basic knowledge attained from an official course abroad that, despite any reassurances, did not come as close in effectiveness as a weekly two hour session with Oisin in downtown Montreal. He focuses on relaxing your verbal expression through casual yet intricate conversations (strictly in German) about everyday life. Gauging from that, he understands your weaknesses with grammar and offers the relevant textbook exercises. He chooses the tougher ones, of course, but will meticulously explain every single component of a sentence to help you master the trickiest spots of the language (and there are many). The transition from speech to grammar is fluid and he does not mind repeating concepts as long as you are gradually getting the grasp of them. In addition to the helpfulness of its rigorous approach, the course is actually enjoyable. I highly recommend Oisin individualized methodology over that of a traditional classroom setting.''

Perfect! Oisin is a fantastic tutor! When we work together, he often chooses something that we speak about after an introductory conversation. This topic is catered to your interest. In my case, I love literature, so we have worked with literature in German and articles in German, which all serve towards expanding vocabulary. This lesson plan makes the time really fly!
Oisin himself is a really easy-going guy who is easy to talk to and who is willing to go off the beaten path if you have questions that aren't central to what is being discussed. Most importantly, Oisin will do a great job focusing on what you want to work on. As a C1-level student, I can say that that is the most important quality for me!Perfect! Very personable, well organized and attentive to my needs as a student.
Having no prior experience with German; I was immediately walked through basic grammar and vocabulary which we've continued to build on throughout six months of weekly lessons.
I've seen significant progress and he's adjusted accordingly, I'd highly recommend Oisin if you're looking for a teacher.See more reviews
