About me - English
My name is Eva, I am an open-minded, flexible and empathic person who loves cultural exchange, good food and getting to know new things!
Professionally I am located in the area of teaching, e-learning, publishing and translation. I have several years of experience in teaching languages in the academic, private and professional field and I also teach online since 2019 on various platforms.
I studied German, International Literature, Spanish and Portuguese at the University of Augsburg in southern Germany. During my studies, I had the pleasure of living for six months in Lisbon and started to know and love the place and the people there. So last year I decided to become an expat :). Bis bald!
Qualifications & Experience
I completed my Master's degree in German and Comparative Literature in 2018 with top marks. After graduating, I first worked at a large e-learning publishing house, where I supported authors and teachers with their course concepts and materials, before I decided to go back to teaching itself. I also work in cooperation with the german Volkshochschule.
Teaching Approach
Each of us has a different background, motivation or personal goals. Therefore, the most important approach for me is to engage with each student individually. I prefer to work with advanced students (C1/C2). However, beginners are also welcome at any time.
My lessons are varied, well structured and engaging. I already prepared a lot of students for their language exam (Goethe Institut & TELC) and I always keep myself updated with new material!
Ich bin eine offene, flexible und einfühlsame Person, die den kulturellen Austausch, gutes Essen und das Kennenlernen neuer Dinge liebt! Beruflich bin ich in den Bereichen E-Learning, Redaktion und Übersetzung tätig. Ich habe mehrere Jahre Erfahrung im Unterrichten von Sprachen im akademischen, privaten und beruflichen Bereich und unterrichte seit 2019 auch online auf verschiedenen Plattformen. Ich habe an der Universität Augsburg Germanistik, Internationale Literatur, Spanisch und Portugiesisch studiert. Während meines Studiums hatte ich das Vergnügen, sechs Monate lang in Lissabon zu leben und begann, die Stadt und die Menschen dort kennen und lieben zu lernen. Also beschloss ich letztes Jahr mich dort Zuhause zu fühlen :). Bis bald!
Qualifications & Experience
Meinen Master in Germanistik und Komparatistik habe ich 2018 mit Bestnoten abgeschlossen. Nach dem Studium arbeitete ich zunächst bei einem großen E-Learning-Verlag, wo ich Autoren und Lehrkräfte bei ihren Kursen und Unterrichtsmaterialien unterstützte, bevor ich mich entschloss, selbst zum Unterrichten zurückzukehren. Ich arbeite u.a. auch mit der Volkshochschule zusammen.
Teaching Approach
Jeder von uns hat einen anderen Hintergrund, eine andere Motivation oder persönliche Ziele. Daher ist es für mich am wichtigsten, auf jeden Schüler individuell einzugehen. Ich bevorzuge die Arbeit mit fortgeschrittenen Schülern (C1/C2). Aber auch Anfänger sind jederzeit herzlich willkommen. Mein Unterricht ist abwechslungsreich, gut strukturiert und ansprechend. Zusätzlich habe ich fundierte Erfahrung in der Prüfungsvorbereitung (Goethe Institut und TELC) und habe schon viele Schüler erfolgreich zu ihrem persönlichen Sprachziel bringen können.
O meu nome é Eva, sou uma pessoa aberta, flexível e empática que adora o intercâmbio cultural, boa comida e conhecer coisas novas! Profissionalmente, estou localizada na área do ensino, e-learning, edição e tradução. Tenho vários anos de experiência no ensino de línguas na área académica, privada e profissional e também ensino online desde 2019 em várias plataformas. Estudei alemão, literatura internacional, espanhol e português na Universidade de Augsburg, no sul da Alemanha. Durante os meus estudos, tive o prazer de viver durante seis meses em Lisboa e comecei a conhecer e a amar o lugar e as pessoas de lá. Assim, no ano passado, decidi tornar-me uma expatriada :). Bis bald!
Qualifications & Experience
Concluí o meu mestrado em Alemão e Literatura Comparada em 2018 com notas máximas. Após a licenciatura, trabalhei numa grande editora de e-learning, onde apoiei autores e professores com os seus conceitos e materiais didácticos, antes de decidir voltar a ensinar directamente. Também trabalho em cooperação com a Volkshochschule alemã.
Teaching Approach
Cada um de nós tem um fondo, uma motivação ou objectivos pessoais diferentes. Por conseguinte, a abordagem mais importante para mim é envolver-me com cada aluno individualmente. Prefiro trabalhar com estudantes avançados (C1/C2), contudo, os principiantes são também bem-vindos em qualquer altura. As minhas aulas são variadas, bem estruturadas e envolventes. Tenho muita experiência na preparação dos exames do Goethe Institut ou do TELC.
