Online tutoring isn't a second job for me?it's what I do! I invest 100% in my teaching, allowing me to cater the experience to each student's unique needs.

I have more than 15 thousand hours of experience teaching English, Hindi, and Urdu. Because every student is different and requires a unique approach, I continually adapt to the learner's needs regarding how the material is presented and the type and frequency of practice work.

In addition to general language teaching, I specialize i...
Reviews
Christoph is teaching me Hindi but eventually will teach me Urdu. In just the two meetings we have had he?s made it apparent that he?s not only a great teacher but someone who goes the extra mile in ensuring his students understands the material. It?s super helpful that he sends the exact material students learn during virtual sessions directly to them and that he assigns homework material. Couldn?t ask for a more effective teaching method. He definitely goes the extra mile.

I had already taken the TOEFL test twice when I reached out to Christoph. In my first try I got a score of 95 and in the second I got a score of 105. To be qualified to apply for my school of preference in the States I had to get a score of at least 114. I had no idea how to do that, so I decided to sign up for a class with Christoph. I practiced the reading and listening sections on my own but had the chance to ask Christoph for help with them if I needed any, which I did, and he gave me inestimable advice on those sections. For the writing section, he provided me with tasks which I completed out of class and he then proofread. In class he provided detailed feedback and we observed possible areas of improvement. We also practiced the speaking sections in class, which was very helpful, since I do not speak English on a daily basis here in Iceland. Christoph noted down what I said and then he gave me thorough advice on how to better my speaking skills. I cannot recommend Christoph?s services enough. He helped me get a score of 115 in the TOEFL test, which was something I thought I could never do. Furthermore, after the classes my English in general is better than it has ever been. The classes have given me more confidence in all aspects of the English language, and I finally feel ready to apply for a University program in the United States. Apart from being a fantastic teacher, Christoph is also a great guy. He is friendly and patient, so it is easy to study with him. I do recommend that you book a class with Christoph if you want to improve your English, I can assure you it will be worth it.

Christoph is a cery decent teacher. He takes the time to understand your needs without being pushing. He is a gentleman. I like his Toefl classes. I recommend him for Toefl if you feel overwhelmed with this particular exam.
- Carolina P. from Cambridge, MA
Christoph D. have been of great help to my english study and toefl preparation. With the help of his, I got a boost on my score from 103 to 107 points within 2 weeks ( apparently I took back-to-back tests in order to have a high score before application deadlines.) And I think I may have a 110+ score for my next test. Massive thanks to my tutor Christoph D.! I won't be achieving my goal without him
- Yufan L. from Fremont, CA
With him, I scored 103 in the Toefl. His classes were essential to improve my speaking and writing. I am so grateful for his work. I do recommend him. Thank you so much, Chris!
- Ludmila S. from Newport Coast, CA
He is a very professional, patient and understanding teacher. I recommend his work 100%.. I am a very shy person and I don't have much confidence in myself, however Christoph D. knew how to handle the situation and gave me a lot of confidence during the TOEFL preparation process.

I engaged Christoph for Urdu lessons to pass a placement exam at my university. What I had estimated would take 6 months, he accomplished in 1 month! I passed the placement exam! Firstly, Christoph had a 30 minute introductory lesson with me free of charge where he assessed my speaking and reading level, and gave me the opportunity to see if this was a good fit. I decided to sign up for further lessons with him immediately after. Not only does Christoph have a strong command of the Urdu language, he is also incredibly well-versed in general grammar terminology and usage, which really enriches his teaching style of foreign languages. Christoph was also insanely structured. He had a personalized lesson plan prepared for each class based on my level and goals. I didn't have to worry about supplementing the lessons at all, Christoph did all the heavy lifting for me! Along with the lesson plan, he assigned reading and homework worksheets that really helped me enforce the lesson topics. Again, these worksheets were tailored to me and what I needed practice on. Simply put, Christoph is the best out there. I cannot recommend him enough. Look no further and send him a message TODAY!
- Batul T. from Katy, TX
For a non-native speaker, Christoph provides a good introduction to the basics of speaking Urdu. He is open to tailoring the program for our 3 kids which is helpful since they are on different levels and have very different personalities.
- Sam A. from Metuchen, NJ
Christoph has a wonderful way of connecting with my son, who has struggled with writing for several years. Not only is he inherently likable and engaging, but Christoph is a deeply experienced educator whose creative solutions tapped ways of working with my child that moved him past his struggles. Highly recommend!
- Emma J. from South Webster, OH
Excellent tutor - I like how much structure he has and how he teaches. He is also very good at explaining difficult concepts. I also like how he organizes the notes for each class and provides homework.
- Mona M. from Brooklyn, NY
Christoph has figured out how to make virtual teaching seamless. I enjoyed my first lesson and will continue with his services. He followed up with lesson notes and prep material for the next session.
- Anoma B. from Stanford, CA
Trust me, his experience is going to help you out. It was challenging at the beginning, but things started getting better from the 3rd or 4th class. Everything just went smoothly and naturally. Chris has always been patient to me!
- Phil J. from Palos Verdes Peninsula, CA
Learning requires leaning into the zone of proximal development, which varies from student to student, week by week. Christoph was able to find my edge within our first lesson, and challenged me to map sounds to characters and Urdu concepts to existing language frameworks I've developed. I highly recommend Christoph as an Urdu tutor!
- Siobhan K C. from San Francisco, CA
As a parent who had experience with different teachers, I am really impressed that Christoph finds new ways of infusing interest in writing, proposing really fun topics ranging from haiku to writing on a controversial topic to some creative piece. He gently guides and looks for ways to help the child continuously improve. Thank you for being such dedicated teacher!
- Naila S. from San Jose, CA
Christoper is very polite, patient and knowledgeable. He was able to go over of all my questions to concentrate on my goals. He paid attention to my mistakes, and approaching of its solution. I appreciate the time Christopher spent on helping me to prepare to the test!
- Anna K. from Brooklyn, NY
Christoph is an expert not only in the subject, but in teaching. He tailored his lessons to my goals and provided me with excellent materials, advice and practice for both grammar and conversation topics I was interested in. It was obvious that Christoph loves the Hindi language, and it?s been a pleasure working with him.
- Anna S. from Renton, WA
Christoph helped me with TOEFL. I was weak in the speaking section. In three classes Christoph helped me become really good with my speaking, I got a 30 in that section.
