About Me
italki teacher since May 9, 2016Interest topicPets & AnimalsReadingEnvironment & NatureHistory
I have a master's degree in Sociology, German as a Second/Foreign Language and Modern History. I also studied English Language & Literature and Comparative Studies (world literature).
I have taught English and German as a foreign language in different educational institutions in Thailand and for the last 7+ years, I have been teaching German online on italki.
Teaching one-on-one classes is the best because I can focus all my attention on one student and that makes such a big difference compared to a class.
I'm a passionate and autonomous learner and I have a wide range of interests. I love to read, go for walks, craft, ride my bicycle, work in the garden and watch the wildlife outside.Me as a Teacher
My role as a teacher is to be a guide and facilitator in the learning process. The student-teacher relationship works best when there is mutual respect, trust and sympathy. Therefore, feedback, questions and ideas are always welcome.
I also very much enjoy learning new things from my students about their culture, their "view of the world" and their expertise and experience .
For me, this is a dream job. Multicultural encounters with a clear goal (German language) and space for learning more than just a language.My lessons & teaching style
In general, I have a personal teaching style. That means, we will have real conversations - on all levels.
Absolute beginners are very welcome. There is no better starting point.
German for Beginners A1/A2:
I will provide all the materials. I use my own worksheets and additional online resources.
B1-C2 / other
Lessons are tailored to the student's needs and goals. I offer plenty of resources to choose from. However, the choice of topic is up to you. I'm open to all topics and media (audio, video, text). Check the course descriptions for more information.

I love my classes with Bianca. We always have interesting topics to talk about and I really like the way she coaches my learning. It's not easy but very necessary to just speak, speak, speak. Recommended!
