My name is Alicia Carter. My family immigrated from Germany to the U.S.A. in the mid 19th century, and I have always been fascinated by Germany and its culture.

I studied German at the College of Wooster, earning a B.A., then went on to earn an M.A. and Ph.D. in German language and literature at the Ohio State University (in 2003). I began teaching the German language as a Teaching Assistant at OSU in the early 1990s, which means that I have been teaching German at the university level for more than a quarter century!
In the words of Joseph Campbell, we human beings do best when we "follow our bliss." Throughout my adult life, teaching, and particularly teaching German, has been my bliss. I was fortunate to recognize teaching as my vocation when I was in college, and l had excellent training in language pedagogy when I was accepted as a teaching assistant at Ohio State's graduate program. I am at my happiest and most fulfilled when I am teaching a language class, whether face to face or online (a modality in which I became proficient during the Covid epidemic). For years I have had excellent teaching evaluations from my students, whether in the classroom or in one on one tutoring.
I was trained in the communicate method of teaching. I believe that conveying meaningful communication is at the heart of learning to use language. I am able to adapt my teaching methodology a...

I had a lovely conversation with Alicia and she really made me feel encouraged. Before the trial lesson I was quite nervous and not excited. As soon as we started talking her warm personality put me at ease... which is really important for practicing.

In today's class I was surprised by how much I was able to express in German. Alicia and I discussed a book that we're both reading and talked about some of the commercials that were on during the Super Bowl. We always have fun during our lessons, but this one I felt surprised by some of the different topics that I was able to speak on. It's great practice, as we're having genuine conversations and she gives me great feedback and helps me with missing vocabulary.
