Karim Chakroun
Experienced French Teacher
Bonjour, my name is Karim and I used to live in Geneva which is a French speaking county of Switzerland bordering with France. My mother tongue is French, but I also speak, English, Italian and some Cantonese.. I just want to say from my experience that once you have learnt at least two different languages it's very easy to learn more. Being myself a mixed person helps a lot as it's much easier to get used to different cultures. I have moved recently to Hong Kong and I am really pleased to live here as Hong Kong is an international and cosmopolitan city, I love meeting people from different countries and cultures. Hope to see you soon.

Chris, Juschka
Experienced German Teacher
Hi everyone! My name is Chris and I come from Germany. I've taken a German Teacher Training Course and have been teaching in Hong Kong for 3 years. Knowing a foreign language is the best way to understand the world. With the knowledge of a language, you can explore new things you have never thought of before. Giving your kids the chance to learn German will open a new door for their lives. There is always an advantage for children to learn languages at an early age because they won't feel it as a burden as many adults do. So come with your children and be the witness of their pleasant learning process!
