Native Spanish teacher with more than 5 years of experience from levels A1-C2. DELE examinator and grammar courses

Я начал изучать испанский с Эриком, когда у меня совсем не было знаний, и за два года закончила курс C1.

Я очень рекомендую его всем, кто хочет получить хорошие и реальные результаты. Он очень профессиональный преподаватель, очень внимательный, талантливый, творческий и дружелюбный.

Занятия с Эриком всегда были настолько продуктивными и в то же время веселыми и интересными, что после окончания курса С1 я до сих пор не могу представить свою жизнь без уроков испанского языка, поэтому теперь я посещаю дискуссионные занятия Эрика.
Эрик помог мне не только овладеть испанским языком, но и полюбить его, понять его настроение и культуру, научиться изучать языки и при этом получать удовольствие.
Теперь я могу использовать испанский язык в путешествиях и при устройстве на работу в Испании, и я очень благодарна, что встретила такого замечательного преподавателя.

Ich habe mit Erik angefangen, Spanisch zu lernen, als ich überhaupt keine Spanischkenntnisse hatte, und in zwei Jahren habe ich den C1-Kurs abgeschlossen.

Ich kann ihn jedem wärmstens empfehlen, der gute und echte Ergebnisse erzielen möchte. Er ist ein sehr professioneller Lehrer, sehr aufmerksam, talentiert, kreativ und freundlich.
Der Unterricht mit Erik war immer so produktiv und gleichzeitig lustig und interessant, dass ich mir nach Abschluss des C1-Kurses ein Leben ohne Spanischunterricht nicht mehr vorstellen kann und deshalb jetzt die Diskussionsstunden von Erik besuche.
Erik hat mir nicht nur geholfen, die spanische Sprache zu beherrschen, sondern auch, sie zu lieben, ihre Stimmung und Kultur zu verstehen, zu lernen, wie man die Sprachen studiert und gleichzeitig Spaß hat.
Ich bin jetzt in der Lage, Spanisch zum Reisen und für Bewerbungen in Spanien zu verwenden, und ich bin so dankbar, dass ich einen so wunderbaren Lehrer getroffen habe.

I started to study Spanish with Erik when I had no Spanish knowledge at all and in two years I finished C1 course.

I can highly recommend him to anybody who wants to get good and real results. He is a very professional teacher, very attentive, talented, creative and friendly.
Lessons with Erik were always so productive and and at the same time funny and interesting that after finishing C1 level I still can't imagine my life without Spanish lessons, so I now visit discussion classes by Erik.
Erik helped me not only to master the Spanish language, but also to love it, to understand its mood and culture, to learn how to study the languages and at the same time to have fun.
I am now able to use Spanish for travelling and for applying for a job in Spain, I am so thankful that I met such a wonderful teacher.

Before I passed my DELE C1 exam, I had been studying Spanish for 8 years or something. During this period I knew a lot of teachers - locals and natives. However, only with Erik I realized what my true aim was - to use language as a tool for widening up my cultural horizons and finding new friends. Erik became my first Spanish friend (and he will remain the most important one, definitely!)
After lessons with him my fluency level raised drastically, I hadn't expected it from myself. He is a motivating and caring teacher and if you are reading it - do not hesitate in contacting him!

I got acquainted with Erik one year ago in language school and when I realized that I need an individual tutor, I had no doubt who should be my choice.
Erik has a talent to explain complicated things in a clear and understandable way and lots of patience to do it not once or even twice!
I believe that studying foreign language is a journey - and Erik is a great companion for that. I strongly hesitate that I would consistently move without his support.

Erik war lange Zeit mein Lehrer und ich kann sagen, dass der Unterricht mit ihm mit sehr geholfen hat, die Sprache zu lernen. Er unterrichtet die anfänglichen und hohen Niveaus, aber ich habe mit ihm nur hohen Niveaus gelernt. Es gibt immer viel Konversationpraxis, kreative Schreibaufgaben und mündliche Präsentationen in seinem Unterricht (das hat mir sehr geholfen). Er hat viel Erfahrung, und noch mehr, er ist ein hilfsbereiter und vielseitiger Mensch, mit dem du immer gut kommunizieren kannst.

I always wanted to learn Spanish, but didn't get a chance while in school. Learning with Erik was so much fun. He has a very good balance of theory and practice, which was very important to me and I feel it helped me learn easy and fast. I would say Erik is el mehor profesor del mundo :)

J'étudie l’espagnol avec Erik depuis environ deux ans. Je peux affirmer que c'est le meilleur professeur de langue que j'aie jamais rencontré. Je ne vois pas le temps passer, tellement les cours sont intéressants. En plus d'être un professeur investi, il est très drôle ! Les discussions avec lui me donnent l'énergie positive pour les jours qui suivent nos cours. J'apprécie également le fait qu'Erik corrige toutes mes erreurs contrairement à beaucoup d'autres professeurs. Cela permet de progresser beaucoup plus rapidement. Prenez les cours avec lui ! Vous n’allez pas regretter !

I’ve been studying Spanish with Erik for a year and after quite a hiatus. We started level B1 last May, and this May I successfully passed SIELE with middle grade B2.
As for the classes, information is well-structured, delivery of the material easy to understand with as many examples as you want and lots of schemes (which I, personally, adore) , you can always ask stupid questions (always a plus) and overall the atmosphere of the classes is very friendly and informal, for me that’s the most comfortable way to learn.
Erik is a great teacher and a very sweet person always ready to help. I would highly recommend to begin or continue your Spanish-learning journey with such an amazing guide.

Ich kenne Erik schon seit ca. 2 Jahren und habe während dieser Zeit nie bereut, ihn, als meinen Spanischlehrer zu haben. Ich habe damals von null, also mit dem A1 Niveau angefangen und stand jetzt befinde mich im B2 Niveau. Erik liest perfekt das Zimmer, sei es ein Offline- oder Online-Unterricht und weiß genau welche Lehraktivitäten anzubieten, damit es nicht nur effizient ist, aber auch Spaß macht. Alles, was unklar ist, erklärt er auf unterhaltsamer Art und Weise auf Spanisch ohne Bedarf auf Englisch zu switchen, selbst wenn es um A1 Niveau geht. Also, wenn ihr Spanisch schnell und nicht langweilig lernen möchtet , dann wäre er meine 100% Empfehlung!

I loved lessons with Erik. He adapted to my level (some previous knowledge, but really with a lot of holes here and there) in no time and helped me improve my Spanish Spanish in a couple of months. Now I feel I can really say I speak the language, not only understand bits and pieces. I also liked that he was very flexible when it came to timing, since I have a varying work schedule AND a small child.

Erik has been my Spanish tutor for around 2 years (B1 - B2 levels). He has abilities to explain the complex structures in the easiest and the most comprehensive way possible. All his lessons are delivered in a well-organised, cohesive form. We didn't waste a single minute, all classes were super-productive. Erik feels when to be supportive and give a hand to a student, it's super important as some topics might be hard to understand and might demotivate you. As a person, he is friendly , easygoing and open minded.

Eric was my Spanish teacher for 2 years, from the B1 level he helped me get to C2. Very intelligible and easily provides information. Classes are interesting and productive, most of the information is absorbed instantly.

I’ve been learning Spanish with Erik for around 2 years now, and I would never change the teacher to any other! Erik has a true talent to share knowledge in a very digestible manner, and at the same time none of the lessons has ever been boring. I recently moved to Spain and I don’t have difficulties speaking the language thanks to this wonderful teacher. 150% recommend!!

I've been studying Spanish with Erik for about 6 months. It's been great so far! Very structured approach to explaining grammar, interesting topics for discussion, and we also always find time to laugh and tell funny stories. I had had a big break before I started studying with Erik - about 15 years and I almost lost my speaking skills, but now I feel like I recovered a lot and now I feel more confident when speaking. Recommend learning Spanish with Erik for 100%! What is more, Erik is a great expert in literature and arts so every lesson you will learn something new (apart from Spanish itself :) Muchas gracias, Erik!

Eric is an amazing Spanish teacher! I had the privilage to be in his class taking a course in a private Spanish language school. He is so fun, so engaging, incredible sense of humor, always bringing lots of positive energy into the classroom and creating easy atmosphere, always ready to put in extra effort and even extra hours in Spanish activities with the students outside the classroom.
That being said, he is a very professional and responsible teacher, able to explain Spanish grammar, usage and really help students progress and have tangible results with their language skills.
To encounter a superprof like Eric was my good luck. I highly recommend him, whether you are planning to study for a serious exam or just want to improve your confidence with the language, look no further!

С Эриком я изучал испанский язык полгода. До этого мое знакомство с испанским ограничивалось знанием слов hola и gracias. Но помимо того, что я начал учить язык с нуля, я из тех людей, о которых говорят - не предрасположен к изучению иностранных языков. Эрик развенчал этот миф.
Обучение проходило по очень четкой методике и тщательно подобранном материале.
Хотя сначала изучение испанского языка мне давалось тяжело, но спустя 4-7 занятий все изменилось и приходит понимание языка. Именно понимание, а не простое зазубривание.
Эрик — профессионал и знает как достигнуть того результата, который нужен. Надо только делать все, что он говорит, не халтурить, и результат не заставит себя долго ждать.


Estudié español con Eric durante seis meses. Antes de eso, mi conocimiento del español se limitaba a las palabras hola y gracias. Pero además del hecho de que empecé a aprender el idioma desde cero, soy una de esas personas de las que se dice que no están predispuestas a aprender idiomas extranjeros. Eric desacreditó este mito.
La formación se llevó a cabo de acuerdo con una metodología muy clara y un material cuidadosamente seleccionado.
Aunque al principio aprender español fue difícil para mí, después de 4-7 lecciones todo cambió y llegó la comprensión del idioma. Es comprensión, no mera memorización.
Eric es un profesional y sabe cómo lograr el resultado deseado. Solo necesita hacer todo lo que dice, no piratear, y el resultado no tardará en llegar.
