About Me
italki teacher since Aug 3, 2020
Hi there! My name is David Allen (爱伦), I'm from San Diego, California but I grew up speaking both English and German and for over 10 years now I have been living and working in Germany as a German/English teacher and technical translator. I moved to Germany after I finished my university degree in German and Linguistics and I have since lived in Göttingen, Hamburg, Hanover, Heidelberg, and Berlin. I absolutely love it here, as Germany has a lot to offer in terms of nature, culture and a rich linguistic history. I have also lived and taught German and English in both Spain (Santander and Valladolid) and China (Beijing), and getting to know people and their languages is my passion in life!

David blew me away with his trial lesson! His Five Step of Language Learning is both innovative and fun. His teaching style is motivating, friendly and professional. I am looking forward to taking more lessons with David. Highly recommended!

David was timely, friendly, and well-prepared for my 30-minute trial lesson. I find his speech to be especially clear and appropriately paced for my level of listening comprehension. I also like how he created shared Google documents and updated them during our lesson with vocabulary and sentences to practice based on our conversation.

Wonderful trial lesson! David is very kind, patient, and seemed to quickly get a good understanding of my current language skills and what I need to do in order to reach my goals. Will definitely book again!

David’s lessons are extremely efficient in helping me to improve my weakness points and prepare me for my Goethe B2 exams. He is willing to share all the tricks and techniques in just one 30 minutes' lesson, and his advices right spot on the critical parts leading to the success of the exams. I would highly recommend his lessons to those who are looking for help with preparation for the exams in a short period of time. Also, he can explain German words in Chinese language really well, and also how Chinese native speakers can adjust the pronunciation. I find myself very lucky to find a teacher like him. Will come back to him when I am preparing my future C1 exam.
