About me
I speak three languages fluently
I grew up in and with the culture of five different countries (Venezuela, Pakistan, Chile, Argentina and the U.S.A.) and therefore speak three languages fluently: German, English & Spanish.
It took me a long time to finally find what my heart beats for.
Today, I do exactly that with love and passion. I support people in learning a foreign language.
In this way, I help them to communicate better in their company.
Humor is very important to me, and I can laugh at myself very well.
That’s why it’s a must in my training sessions – just like small talk, because for me, training without small talk is like… a car without wheels.
My professional career
Living with languages
After working full-time for many years in a chemical company, a logistics company and a renowned law firm and teaching part-time for 10 years at the VHS Erfurt – later at the VHS Munich – I decided to radically change my life at the age of 38.
I became self-employed, focused on language training and started studying.
I’m glad I had the courage to make this change back then and have never regretted it.
I still really enjoy my job and I’m always learning new things.
