Students will learn the words "butterfly," "bird," "spider," and "snail" in German in a playful way that forms a positive association with German. This class sets a foundation and desire for future learning.
My native language is English—I learned German from my German mother and took German in school all the way through college, earning my B.A. in German. I even worked for a year as an intern in the German Bundestag in an environment of total language immersion. I have a deep respect and appreciation for the German language, which I will pass on to your learner in my class! > GERMAN BUNDESTAG Ms. Christina served for one year as an intern in the German Bundestag. > ESL Ms. Christina served for one year as an English and German teacher in Taiwan. > EARLY LITERACY Ms. Christina worked for seven years in the children's department of a public library with a focus on Early Literacy and multilingual programming. > EDUCATION Ms. Christina has a Bachelor of Arts degree in INTERNATIONAL POLITICS and GERMAN; and a Master of Arts degree in INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS with a language focus on MANDARIN CHINESE.
