Used Aidan to help me with liturature and he was very helpful and knowledgeable. Highly recommended .
Thanks Matt. It was a pleasure to be of service.
From Sophie
We agreed that Aidan would do some simple 30 minu**Contact Detail Removed**ssons with my 5 year old twins, but he was not equipped to teach younger children. He became frustrated with them and finished the lesson a little abruptly.
Hi
I did make clear beforehand that I am not qualified to teach 5 year olds. They would have been far better off having someone with them in the room. After 20 minutes concentration had gone and it was not suitable doing the lesson online. That was why we finished. I am sorry that you feel that way but I feel I have to put my point of view. I wish you luck with finding a new tutor.
From Teresa
My husband and I are really enjoying our online German lessons with Aidan. We have been provided with useful resources to help us improve our knowledge in between lessons. He has been quick to understand our level of learning and we have made good progress. Aidan is friendly, patient and an excellent teacher.
Many thanks guys. I am enjoying the lessons too!
From Vera
Aidan is an excellent tutor. He is kind, patient and knowledgeable. My son is really happy with his support.
Many thanks Vera. Gabriel is working really hard.
From Funmi
Aidan works with my son to improve both his music and German skills for his GCSE exams. My son really enjoys the lessons and feels that he has improved in both subjects since starting with Aidan. He finds the lessons engaging, informative and supportive. As a parent, I’m very happy with the lessons as well.
Thanks Funmi. I am enjoying the lessons too.
From Jenny
I have had a few German tutors in the past and Aidan is by far the best. I would recommend him to everyone!
Many thanks, Jenny. Glad you are enjoying the sessions!
From Tess
Great teacher very easy to understand and easy to follow. He is working to help improve my pronunciation with german songs for my classical music degree. Thank you!
Many thanks Dan!
From Rachel
Co-ordinating Skype appears challenging for us, but the lessons themselves have been very useful for my daughter.
Many thanks!
From Lynn
Hi Aidan As discussed I will not be proceeding with the online course as I previously mentioned , I don’t get good enough internet access and it was face to face I wanted. You have an incorrect postcode which made it look as though you were 2.3 miles from me, when infact you are 300 miles away!! Maybe you should change this on your profile to save any further confusion to others. I have asked for a refund of my fee which I hope will not be a problem . I am sure that if it was online that I wanted i would have been very happy with your services, it’s just not for me. Take care.
Thanks Lynn.
Changing the postcode allows me to find online clients who are not necessarily in my area and First Tutors has allowed me to do this.
I did also make it explicitly clear in my first message to you that the lessons were to be online.
This is the first time such confusion has happened. In your text messages to me you made it clear that you had not seen my statement that the lessons would be online so I think it is a bit much to complain now.
From Ismail
An excellent tutor. Always willing to organise the lessons in line with my needs. Also encouraging and supportive.
Thanks Ismail. I look forward to helping you process further.
From Caroline
Aidan is tutoring my daughter online for A level German. The online system works well, and my daughter loves the sessions. She has learnt a huge amount in the first few sessions and says Aidan is friendly helpful and very good at teaching her. We would highly recommend him.
Hi Caroline
Many thanks for your comments. I am sure we will be able to ensure success in the coming exams.
Aidan
From Jason
Aidan is very understanding and adapts every lesson to the pupils' individual needs and level of learning. He is an excellent teacher and I would highly recommend him to anyone wanting to learn German, even from a very basic level, like myself.
Jason
Many thanks and glad you are enjoying the lessons.
Aidan
From Caroline
I organised German lessons for my husband as a Christmas present. Aidan was really easy to communicate with and offered a very friendly service. My husband has now had 2 lessons with Aidan and is really enjoying them. Aidan has been tailoring his approach to suit my husbands needs and pace and we are very happy with his tutoring service so far.
Many thanks Caroline. I am glad Shane is enjoying the lessons and look forward to working with him in the future.
From Lottie
Aidan was very helpful with my daughter's German tuition wasting no time in discovering what she needed help with most and adapting the lessons to facilitate that.
Many thanks Diane. I am glad these online lessons have gone well and I look forward to working together with Lottie to ensure her success in German and English in the summer.
From Steven
My wife and I have found Aiden to be an excellent tutor, he is very patient and his fees very reasonable. We will require more lessons in the future and will certainly use Aiden again.
Many thanks Steve. Just let me know. Aidan
From Mary
Aidan is an excellent tutor. Friendly and approachable, his skype sessions were effective and convenient. My son achieved an A at GCSE this summer - thanks Aidan!
Many thanks Mary. I am glad he was successful. Aidan
From Mo
I'm an adult learner learning out of interest. I have some knowledge of German before the lessons started and Aidan helps me to put things together. I feel a significant improvement after only four lessons. He is very efficient, encouraging and experienced, and is able to digest most eye-watering grammar into something simple and comprehensible. I already recommended him to my friends who are interested in learning German and I would recommend him to everyone here.
Thanks Mo. I appreciate your comments.
From Laverne
Great teaching experience, you can tell he really loves what he does. Thank you Aidan so much!!
My pleasure Laverne. Thanks for your feedback on your online lessons. Aidan
From David
Aidan is a real pleasure to work with. Aidan was quickly able to access the level of my German and start to work on the [many] gaps straight away using a variety of different materials.
I always find Aidan to be patient and accommodating and quite happy to cover topics in different ways to make sure the learning is effective.
Having tutorials over Skype was excellent and allows a lot of flexibility. Aidan always provides good guidance for personal study between lessons.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Aidan to others, he has proved very helpful for me and my German has made a step change with Aidan's help.
David. Many thanks for your kind words. Aidan
From Lisa
Great tutor. Very positive and is giving my daughter great confidence with her English.
Thanks Lisa
From Sharon
After my hesitant start with using Skype for tutoring, Aidan has been supportive with my daughter's lack of confidence in French. He has been able to raise her speaking and pronunciation immensely. She looks forward to these lessons, and she is only half way through her lessons. Thanks Aidan.
Sharon. Many thanks for your comments. Nit just shows that the best teacher may not be the nearest one. Aidan
From Lucy
Aidan has been brilliant so far … great communication, really flexible with days and times, and most importantly very helpful to my son who is taking German GCSE. The tutorials are done by Skype and this works really well - in fact I think my son learns better like this than face to face as he is so used to being glued to electronic gadgets!!
Hi Lucy
Many thanks for your feedback which is greatly appreciated. Just goes to show that the best teacher may not necessarily be the nearest one!
Aidan
From Marie
Aidan has only been teaching my son German for a couple of weeks but we've been very impressed with his enthusiasm and ability. To get a 15 year old interested and involved first thing on a Saturday morning takes a special sort of someone and we would recommend Aidan without hesitation.
Thanks Marie
Aidan.
From Ethan
After four lessons, I am pleased with the production of my German. I knew nothing before our first lesson and four lessons later, I have learnt far more than I could have imagined too. My tutor helped me in not just teaching me new words and short phrases, but in reinforcing what I had learnt during the days in between our lessons, in which I used Linguascope for.
Many thanks, Ethan. I look forward to continued work with you. Aidan
