Annette

Certified Tutor

I am a native from Germany and received all my degrees from German universities. I finished my legal studies with an equivalent of a bachelor and masters at the Johann Wolfgang Goethe University in Frankfurt/Germany. Later, I finished a 2-semester study in European Advanced Studies with a graduate level certificate. My latest degree is a Ph.D. in Law from the Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz with an emphasis on European Law. Several years ago I started to work with children and came to love it. I gained my first experience in a child care facility as a classroom volunteer, later I extended it to tutoring in elementary school classrooms, and to leading scout groups of various ages, which I still do. My tutoring experience is broad and I loved and still love every part of it, but my passion is, for sure, to teach my native language of German. I believe that there is a way for every student to understand and learn something even if it seems to be too boring or complicated. While finding the right positive learning style for a student I also think it is critical to practice, practice and practice to master one little step after the other to gain confidence for the next level. In my spare time I enjoy reading, going camping and experimenting with bread recipes.
