English teacher / Englisch lehrerin

Datum: 10.02.2023

I have been teaching English almost without any gaps ever since I completed my bachelor studies (BA in English Language and Literature in 2006 and then MA in British Cultural Studies in 2007) and in the last 3 years I focused more on my professional development as a teacher. I enjoy teaching online and trying out new methods with my students while at the same time having their personalities in mind. I always adapt my teaching style to the person I'm working with and try to make the classes as enjoyable as possible.
I believe that my role is to guide you in your leaning journey, to help you grow and to help you find your way.

If you want to find out how my classes with me work, then make sure to watch the video below:

My lessons & teaching style (what I didn't say in the video)
Because I love learning and personal and professional development, I always make time to attend workshops/webinars/conferences. I recently attended a webinar called "Psychological research in the ELT classroom" and I found out that my teaching style falls somewhere at the convergence between the ecological approach and the positive approach to foreign language teaching and acquisition. This means that I try to use real-life materials and situations in my classes and sometimes even take the classes out in the real world (e.g. have classes in the park and use surrounding natural objects as props). I also focus on the holistic development of the student and I facilitate that development.
