About Me
What's the best way to learn languages? --- I have thought a lot about that question myself and had
many conversations with other polyglots at the Polyglot Conference and the Polyglot Gathering about it. I have written articles that are based on those conversations, as well as on literature about language learning and learning in general that I have read over the years.
If you need help with German and you prefer a teacher who takes into account your individual learning style, I am the right person. I will support you and help you find the way of learning German, that is right for you. However, if you need help with preparation for a German exam or a job interview that is coming up soon, I can guarantee you some highly effective lessons that will boost your confidence.
I have several years experience of teaching students from different ages online, in person, and in different institutions. I teached German to kids from zero, prepared students that are going to study in Germany for different exams like Telc or Goethe, prepared adults for job interviews or supported doctors who are preparing for the medical "Fachspracheprüfung" (patient - doctor role play).
Languages are an important thing for me. I just got my degree in Cultural and Cognitive Linguistics and love to work in different areas of the language industry, first of all teaching, but also translating, interpreting, localization, linguistics, editing... I would also like to learn a minority language from Africa, probably Tigrinya and work in the respective countries for some time.
Apart from that music is really important for me. I love playing the piano, composing and play in bands. Another really important thing is travelling and get to know all parts of the world.
