Über mich
italki-Lehrkraft seit 2. Mar 2019
Hi, my name is Franziska and I'm a German native speaker from Germany. I did my BA in French and Art History in Cologne and been living in London for four years now. At the moment I'm completing my MA in Translation Studies. I'm translating from English and French into German, while being especially passionate about literary translation. I've also been working as a private German tutor for adults and children, which I really enjoy!
Ich als Lehrkraft
As I've been interested in languages for quite some time, I learned Latin, English and French at school and proceeded with a BA in French linguistics and literature. While completing my undergraduate, I started giving private tutoring lessons in English, French and German and noticed how much I enjoy teaching languages. After graduating I lived in the French speaking part of Switzerland where I also worked as a language assistant for German.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
My lessons and teaching style are orientated on the wishes and needs of my students. My experience in teaching and learning foreign languages showed me the great importance of conversation. As I'm really interested in grammar, I think it's quite important to know and understand certain structures and pecularities and I'm happy to really dig into it if wished, but I'm also happy to concentrate less on grammar and more on conversation and useful communication skills. Of course we can also practice writing and listening skills. I'm also happy to provide homework, but this also depends on the student's wishes.
