ENROLLMENT CLOSES IN
Diet books.
If it were according to the amount of books sold, people would live healthier lives with healthier diets.
Unfortunately, it’s not the case.
Why?
Because It’s one thing, to know what your goal is or even to have a plan on how to get there.
It’s a whole different story to DO THE WORK to achieve that goal.
We all suffer from the “Planner-Doer” bias.
The Planner within you knows where he wants to get to.
But the Doer within you is the one who actually has to do the work.
And they are often not aligned with each other, because it’s one thing to express in one sentence what the goal is, it’s a whole different thing to actually do the daily work to achieve this goal.
It often requires energy and discipline that we unfortunately lack after long days of work or busy family lives.
But, how do PROs solve this problem?
Look at tennis players for example.
They are humans too.
They often don’t feel like training or dieting or exercising, but they have to in order to achieve their goals and get better.
They have to train almost every day, because it’s a long-term project that requires discipline.
What do they do?
Simple. They have a coach!
A coach helps them stay on track, focus on the right plan and eliminate this constant emotional battle between the planner and the doer.
Hi, I’m Manuel aka "Herr Professor".
I’m an engineer by trade and a native German and Spanish speaker.
Years ago, some colleagues who had to move to Germany for work asked me:
“Is German really that hard to learn?”
I joked: “Of course not, it’s actually easier than English!” :-)
To back that up, I made it my mission as an engineer to design efficient learning programs for busy professionals.
Programs that prove your German can be as good as your German colleagues’ English…
in just a fraction of the time and effort they spent.
Introducing “German 1on1”
Achieve measurable results with the power of 1on1 Coaching.
Then, I might have the right program for you.
I guess, like for most people, the problem is not goal setting, it's goal achieving, right?
We all have goals, yet, most of us struggle to achieve our goals.
That’s because there’s a big difference between having a goal and achieving a goal.
In "German 1on1" I will help you eliminate this gap with the power of 1on1 Coaching.
By using accountability and follow-up we'll drive behavior change and focus on achieving measurable results, be it
German 1on1 is not a weekly German class.
It's a personal coaching and accountability program designed to make sure you know exactly what to work on and actually make consistent progress.
During the first month, we'll meet for a short 15 minute 1on1 Coaching Call every week.
We'll look at where you are now, what you want to achieve and what is currently holding you back.
Then I'll create a clear learning plan around your specific goal.
You won't have to figure out which course, exercise or learning method you should use.
Based on your goal, I'll give you access to the appropriate training from our German programs.
For example:
In other words, you don't need to decide what to study.
I'll tell you what to work on and give you the resources to do it.
From the second month on, we'll continue meeting for one 15 minute 1on1 Coaching Call every week.
These calls are your accountability system.
We'll review what you completed, identify where you're getting stuck and decide exactly what you should focus on next.
If something isn't working, we'll adjust the plan.
If you need additional training, I'll give you access to it.
And if you're falling behind, I'll help you get back on track.
The goal is simple:
You always know what to do next, and you have someone making sure you actually do it.
The price is 200€/month.
You can cancel at any time.

These students used the same training I’ll assign you in German 1on1. Here’s what they achieved:
--- C1 passed with 83% in Speaking ---
“I have a pretty demanding job (definitely not 9–5), I travel a lot, have a small child, and I’m usually just trying to catch some sleep, so my days were always packed.
What really got me was that the program was designed for busy professionals like me, it was exactly what I was looking for.”
--- B2 passed with 100% in Speaking ---
“The biggest challenge was to find the right course for me. I liked the comfort provided by the course in my office but I was not making progress the way I expected. I was searching for a course which would improve my confidence in speaking German.
The classroom training was more book-oriented. I don’t have anything against that approach but I just feel it doesn’t suit me. Even after many classes I was finding it difficult to understand the basics of Akkusativ and Dativ.
Now after doing many courses with Herr Professor, I cannot imagine myself in a classroom training which focuses only on a book.
Now I am able to write error-free (almost) Emails in my office. I can attend calls in German and clearly communicate and understand what is being spoken in the call. I have conversations with my colleagues in German. My work meetings are now in German. I manage to explain almost everything in German. When it gets really complicated, I switch to English for a short while and then I switch back to Deutsch.”

“I had joined two traditional language schools, at 2 different time points. But I would spend almost an hour just getting there and coming back and thus spend nearly 2.5 hours or more for a 90 minute lesson. That would be very tiring.
A big challenge was making time for going to the lessons after a long day at work. I often felt like doing my homework straight after coming from my lesson but I would be too tired as I start my day really early in the morning.
I was looking for something flexible which I could do at my own pace and convenience without investing time in commuting to get to the school.
My goal was to be able to converse with colleagues or other German-speaking people one comes across in the daily life in Germany (eg, in shops, restaurants, banks, etc) and also understand what they say. In addition, I needed to obtain B1 level certificate for my permanent residence permit.
I just followed the instructions given in the program. They are absolutely perfect and work 100%. As a result I passed my official B1 Goethe exam with an incredible 100% score in speaking.”

No.
The weekly 1on1 call is your coaching and accountability session.
During these calls, we review your progress, identify where you are getting stuck and decide exactly what you should work on next.
The actual learning and practice happens between our calls using the courses, training and resources I assign to you based on your goals.
If speaking is one of your goals, you will participate in our weekly Live Guided Speaking Practice sessions.
These are structured live sessions where you actively practice speaking German around real life topics and situations.
I may also assign additional speaking, listening or pronunciation training depending on what you need to improve.
That depends on your current level and your individual goals.
For example, if you are preparing for B1, I may give you access to the relevant A2 and B1 training.
If you need to improve your speaking, I will give you access to our live speaking practice sessions.
If you need additional listening, vocabulary, grammar, reading or writing practice, I will give you access to the appropriate training and resources.
You do not need to decide which course you should take.
That is part of my job as your coach.
You will access your training through the Herr Professor course platform and app.
Your assigned lessons, courses and resources will be available there so you can work through them whenever it fits your schedule.
The calls are short and focused.
We will look at what you completed since our last call, what is working, where you are struggling and what you should focus on next.
I will also adjust your learning plan whenever necessary and give you access to additional training if your needs change.
The purpose of the calls is to make sure you always know exactly what to do next and that you keep moving toward your goal.
Yes.
If your goal is to pass an exam such as B1, B2 or C1, we will build your learning plan around that goal.
I will give you access to the relevant training and help you stay on track with the preparation you need.
German 1on1 costs 200€/month.
There are no extra costs for the training and resources I assign to you as part of the program.
There are no contracts, no long term commitments and no cancellation fees.
Just email me and I will cancel your subscription.
