Walter Mahabir is a Canadian musician, born and raised in Toronto. While living in Toronto, he had nine years of classical piano training at St. Michael's Choir School, and later received his Bachelor of Music in Classical Voice at York University. Walter then moved to Montreal to continue his studies, where he completed his Master's degree in Choral Conducting. Working in music has become his lifelong passion, and it is through music that he also developed a keen interest for language. After receiving his TEFL Certification, he moved to Berlin, where he currently lives and works as a freelance English teacher and musician.

Walter's life experiences have sculpted him into the dedicated teacher that he has become. Through years of conducting and dancing experience, he is quick to adapt dynamic learning and teaching concepts. In addition, his eleven years in the service industry developed his public speaking and hospitality.

Walter is committed to continue developing as a language teacher and musician while promoting values of critical thinking, encouragement, improvement, and positivity.

Aside from his work, Walter loves dogs, crosswords, reading, comedy, video games, basketball and magic tricks. He also likes to consider himself a professional eater.
