ABOUT ME

I’m from Bamberg, a beautiful and historic town in northern Bavaria, Germany. It is known for its medieval charm and amazing architecture and also famous for it’s smoked beer (Rauchbier) and lively student life. I study Vocational Education at the University of Bamberg to become a teacher at a “Fachoberschule” (a type of upper secondary school). My future subjects are Pedagogy, Psychology and Politics & Society.

This year, I’m working as a Language Associate at Carleton College and I’m super excited to support your German learning journey. Culture and language are deeply connected. Learning German also means discovering music, food, tradition and history. I am exited to share this with you all!
