As an Attorney at Law licensed in Germany and the US I have been dedicated to excellent academic achievements as well as communicating within both continents and legal systems. I also explored the Healing Arts as well as advanced communication skill by becoming a licensed Holistic Health Professional and Master Practitioner within the field of Neurolinguistic Psychology. As a Court appointed Special Advocate for children and volunteer with "Voices for children" I feel very well equipped to teach adults and children of all backgrounds.

As a Stanford graduate, I have worked in a variety of capacities teaching students, including as a classroom teacher for English Composition in Africa, as a German tutor for high school students, and as an editor and proofreader for a variety of essay types.

As far as teaching languages goes, I believe in immediately beginning in the language and doing all instruction in that language.

The challenge of making this approach comprehensible and fruitful to the student falls on the teacher; it's what makes the teaching languages interesting. I have followed this method for a number of years, and my successes confirm me in this belief.
I have extensive teaching experience at all levels from my years spent in Germany. I taught at the level of technical colleges (Technische Hochschule Bremen) high school and grade school (Schulzentrum Obervieland). I have exzperience in teaching both a specialized form of language instruction (English for electrical engineers) and general languages. I have found teaching beginners to be extremely rew ... read more
