Experience
I have enjoyed teaching and working with languages for more than 15 years: - Recently I taught German as a second language to refugees and immigrants in Northern Germany. - I have been teaching Norwegian in adult evening classes since 2008. - I worked with Norwegian-German translastions. - I am a skilled and very accurate proofreader of German texts. I worked for a newspaper, translation companies and primarily for university students. - At the University of Freiburg I worked as a linguistics tutor in 2006. - I tutored German high school students for many years in different subjects, mainly English and German. - As a speech and language therapist I am used to recognizing individual needs in learning and adapting my teaching to all levels. I am also experienced in working with people with disabilities.
