Why Me?
What makes you the best person for your job?
I am a bit a too serious person, work thoroughly and consciously. My teacher training made me look intensively at what students really are able to do. I make students work and keep wordly explanations low.

What is your best project so far? Why?
Working in companies with very irregular attendance, still be able to design the required tests, and I am gifted in thinking myself into the work and work conditions of my students and bring that rapidly into classwork.


What do your students / customers say about you?
They praise my reliability, my readiness to response flexibly to their wishes, my ability to explain mistakes not as a failure but as not in place, and give the reasons for it. They like my accent.
