About Me
italki teacher since Feb 7, 2025InterestsEnvironment & NatureArtScienceHistoryWriting
My name is Deshira Jakupi, I’m a 26-year-old neurodivergent artist, writer, composer, and avid chess player with a multicultural background that has shaped my fluid and versatile approach to human connection and learning. Born in Berlin, I’ve spent my life exploring diverse cultures, traditions, and disciplines, which rewarded me with both knowledge and experience.Me as a Teacher
It was in Prague, where I began my teaching journey, tutoring school children in English and German.
Over the years, I’ve expanded my teaching to adults, specializing in Business German for corporate clients, alongside honing my skills in cultural and linguistic fluency through work in customer service and translation.

I personally love to focus on TPR learning (total physical response). TPR is a proven method for aiding linguistic development by integrating physical actions with language learning. This approach helps learners associate words and phrases with movements, reinforcing comprehension and retention. TPR leverages kinesthetic memory, making it particularly effective for young learners or beginners. By engaging multiple senses, it reduces stress, increases participation, and accelerates the acquisition of vocabulary and grammar in a natural, interactive way. Also I am a firm believer of the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis which is also known as linguistic relativity.My teaching material

Deshira先生とのレッスンは、毎回すごく楽しかったです。言語の学習だけでなく、いつも興味深いトピックの世界に連れて行ってくれてに、たくさんのことを教わりました。前回のレッスンで話した内容と先生の豊富な知識をコンバインして、授業の内容を考えてくれたり、私が聞くだけでは理解できないので、いつも単語を書いておしえてくれましたし、時には特別に詳しいドキュメント（日本語のヒント付き❣）を用意してくれたりと、とても親身になってレッスンをしてくれました。 こちらのリクエストに柔軟に対応してくれる、親切な先生です。絶賛お勧めします！

とても面白い課題をいつも用意してくれます。ドイツ語と私の母語を比較しながらとても興味深いレッスンが行われました。毎回あっという間の30分ですが、とても実りある時間です。もっと聞き取りの力を付けたい、思っていることを表現できるようになりたいと意欲がわきます。

身近な話題を題材にレッスンを行ってくれました。不透明だった文法のもやもやも丁寧に解説してくださり、理解することができました。小さなお子さんがいるので、静かな環境でマンツーマンレッスンをするのは少し難しいのかもしれませんが、彼女の対応はとても素晴らしく毎回あっという間にレッスン時間が過ぎていきます。次回のレッスンも楽しみです！
