Without language, you are literally tongue-tied. I will teach you the basics of German or English, and we will proceed on this journey of acquiring a language together, step by step. From A1 to C2, I will guide you on your path through the intricacies and pitfalls of German or English. I love to play with words, and I love humour. It's in my DNA. Learning languages should be fun, not only work.

I have taught fundraising, public administration, job- and interview training, teacher training, communication, and mediation. In recent years I have taught Filipino students pursuing their careers by moving to Germany (preparation for A1 to B2 certificates), business professionals, tourists, people who just want to brush up their German, and individuals studying for the A1 to C2 certificate. For me, it is important that my clients and students understand the setting in which they are acquiring their new language and that they can use their new skills as quikly as possible.

You could call me a Jack of all trades. I have worked as an administrator, fundraiser, managing director, tour operator, consultant, soldier, and journalist. I have always been a team player. My goal is to understand the connections and interrelations of my staff and clients and their tasks and goals.. There will always be aspects that will reach their mind and soul.
