Summary

I have had a passion for languages for many years, which I can now turn into a profession thanks to the teacher training program at UVA. It gives me great pleasure to support and guide students through their learning process while learning the German language.
Varied teaching combined with a genuine interest in the
students and a reflective attitude towards one's own actions, certainly benefits the quality of the lessons.
