Born in Essen Kupferdreh, I graduated from high school with a focus on languages and taught French and English as a teenager. Afterwards, after studying administrative sciences at a university of applied sciences, I ended up as an employment agent in Cologne.

From there, I moved to Brittany on a staff exchange, where I have put down roots for 20 years and "adopted" French and Breton culture as my three children grew up. Professionally, I have since worked in an international company in sales.

Human contacts are as important to me as the air I breathe and the Atlantic Ocean on my doorstep. During the French courses I live my passion and like to pass on my experiences (among others business French, special vocabulary e.g. accounting, experiences from working life in France, everything related to job applications, CV etc., everyday life, customs and traditions).
