About Stephen Griggs

I have lived and worked in Germany so that I emphasize a lot of common-usage expressions and customs that may not be present in solely textbook-based instruction. Most of my work is in preparing people to move to Germany out of either professional or marital interests. I also work with many school students who are already enrolled in a German course to improve their performance in that course.

He is very professional and knows German well. He teaches clearly and is able to convey ideas without ambiguity.

This gentleman is a wizard when it comes to teaching German. He quickly found my level and we started right where I had left off in Highschool some years back. His resources are top notch and free!! I highly recommend Herr Griggs!

I am really enjoying my practice with Stephen. He is knowledgeable, capable, and is helping me gain the confidence I had hoped for. I would highly recommend his services!

Steve is helping my high school daughter get caught up in her German III class. She had fallen behind due to getting stuck on a few assignments. He’s really getting her back on track. In 3 days they had 4 1-hour appointments and she is finishing assignments between lessons as well as with him. He’s teaching some tricks to help with difficult or tedious concepts. It’s clear he enjoys teaching and is good at motivating without pushing too hard. I am very happy we hired Steve!

Stephen is great. He easily assessed exactly where I was and met me there. We even read a fairy tale during our second tutoring session and I didn't do half bad. So excited to keep growing my knowledge of the German Language!

Stephen has been very patient with my teen son, and his teaching format keeps my son engaged and learning at a good pace. My son is interested in being an exchange student and perhaps attending university in Germany, and we appreciate how much Stephen teaches about culture and everyday German usage as part of the curriculum.
