About Me
italki teacher since Dec 22, 2024InterestsBusiness & FinanceSports & FitnessMarketingHistoryTravel
With extensive experience in corporate banking in Germany and medical aid administration in South Africa, I transitioned from management to pursue new challenges. My journey included professional sailing, including multiple Atlantic crossings, which deepened my cultural awareness. I further expanded my skill set as an assistant sports coach in canoeing, instructing both adolescents and adults. Currently residing in the Bahamas, I have been delivering online English instruction to business professionals globally since 2021, leveraging my corporate background to provide practical, real-world language training. I also teach German as a native speaker!Me as a Teacher
I have a TEFL-certificate of 168 hours & a 40-hours exam preparation certificate. My teaching experience is based on many years of sports coaching in canoeing as well as 3.5 years of online teaching. I am open, friendly, patient and well-organized. I take my profession seriously and love seeing my students develop and improve!My lessons & teaching style
I believe the most effective way to feel comfortable and confident with learning English or German as a second language, is to enjoy having conversations with a teacher who guides students in lessons that are fun and interesting. Therefore when teaching, I use a lot of TPR to spice things up!My teaching material

Very good lessons, I can only recommend them. Since Gesine speaks German and English perfectly, she was able to alleviate much of my fear of speaking. She also places importance on creating educational and varied lessons. Furthermore, she is focused and it is important to her that you actually learn something. Thanks again for everything. :)
