Payment verified US$ 3.13 (300 INR)Fantastic German language course
Shyam is a really nice and patient tutor who teaches the German language in a very understandable way. We have enrolled for a 1on1 online course for A1 language, for me and my husband. We have no German background, he explains multiple times patiently, also a flexible and good human being.
We strongly recommend him for the German language.

Shyam sir makes our learning very easy to understand and enjoyable. He explain topics clearly and give helpful examples, so it’s easier to remember. The homework assignments are well-planned and really help us practice and improve after each lesson. Overall, a great tutor for building strong German skills step by step.
Currently we are 3 people learning in a joint session for business communication purpose and also we are planning few more people for a new batch with Shyam sir.

Payment verified US$ 5.22 (500 INR)Best teacher for German beginner
I have found the best teacher available on this platform. he is really friendly, correctly understood my requirements and arranged the classes accordingly for a really affordable price. Just in five days, I was able to read, make basic sentences. He also uses really good material for teaching, writing, reading and listening activities with speaking which is why I strongly believe that anyone who wishes to study A1 must hire him.
Vielen Dank Herr Lehrer für alles! I’m forever grateful to you for the immense support given throughout.

Payment verified US$ 5Math Teacher teacher
I am currently studying Vedic Math under Shyam. I teach high school (secondary school) math in the USA. Teaching math to a math teach is a little different from teaching math to regular student. When you learn math to teach it you need to know why this and why that, you have to know small details that may not be important to the average student.
Shyam is doing a very good job of transitioning from a teacher of students to a teacher of teachers with me.

Payment verified US$ 20Amazing German Teacher
We had the pleasure of having Shyam as a German teacher for our 6-year-old, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Shyam's compassionate and kind nature created a warm and encouraging learning environment that our child looked forward to each week. His teaching methods were effective and engaging, making the process of learning German fun and educational. Shyam's patience and ability to connect with our child were truly remarkable, and the progress made in such a short time is a testament to his dedication and skill. We highly recommend Shyam to anyone looking for a fantastic German teacher for their child!
