5.00The tour with Christian is absolutely recommended; he reached our 9th grade class very well with his speech and was able to spark and maintain their interest. That is truly remarkable. Here are the written feedbacks from the kids: They explained well, so that one remains attentive. It was noticeable that they are well-informed, especially when they told the stories of the wall victims. They appeared very professional in their language and expression. The tour was very informative. They spoke at a very good pace, so that one could follow them and think about the topic oneself. (from Paul, Niels, Frytzy, and Elena) They explained it with good humor, making it enjoyable to listen. We believe they presented it very interestingly and in an understandable language. It was evident that they enjoyed it and brought joy, and one could listen well without needing to participate. That was a good introduction for us to the topic of the division of Germany. We found that to be a good entry point into the topic of the division of Germany. Thanks from Rosi, Kassy, Joris, and Erkin Philine, Josi, Frida, Jonna, Lia say: - an interesting presentation with brief facts - explained simply and understandably - vividly and with a lot of heart explained the stories of the victims of the Wall - it was pleasant to listen to - not too many unnecessary details - with a lot of humor Ömer, Naaja, Maja, Max, and John say: - spoke briefly and concisely, explained very engagingly - well explained using pictures/buildings - they visibly enjoy their job - very friendly person/charisma - through the real Wall, one could easily imagine everything - well-detailed stories of victims told Finja, Lasse, Lisa, and Levi say: - very interesting and well told - diverse - told in an exciting way - One has gained a good insight.
