For over two decades, my journey has been intricately woven with the German language, spanning from A1 to B2 proficiency levels. Certified by the prestigious Goethe Institute up to B2 level, I have immersed myself in the nuances of German linguistics, culture, and education, honing my skills to empower others on their linguistic journey.

My career trajectory has been diverse and enriching, with a significant portion of it spent in Germany itself. For 12 years, I served as a governor's interpreter, facilitating communication and bridging cultural divides in various settings. Additionally, my tenure as an executive manager at a manufacturing company provided invaluable insights into the German business landscape and further solidified my command over the language.

Beyond my professional endeavors, I have been deeply passionate about teaching German. As a part-time teacher for German tuition, I've had the privilege of imparting my knowledge to eager learners, tailoring my approach to meet the unique needs of each student. My experiences as a German guest lecturer at Chennai University and as a German teacher in Canada have enriched my pedagogical repertoire, allowing me to engage with students from diverse backgrounds and cultures.

One of the most rewarding aspects of my career has been my involvement in training local students in Tamil Nadu in both German and British English. Over the years, I've had the privilege of mentoring over 100 students, equipping them with the linguistic skills and cultural understanding necessary to thrive in an increasingly globalized world.

In line with the evolving landscape of education, I've embraced online platforms as a means of reaching and engaging with students across geographical boundaries. Through a meticulously designed 60-hour course, featuring two-hour interactive sessions each day, I've created a dynamic learning environment where students actively participate and engage with the material.

During live sessions, I provide comprehensive notes that serve as invaluable study aids for students, consolidating their understanding of key concepts and vocabulary. These notes are meticulously crafted to complement the interactive nature of the sessions, fostering a holistic and immersive learning experience.

As I reflect on my journey, I am filled with gratitude for the opportunity to share my passion for the German language with others. Each day presents a new opportunity to inspire, educate, and empower students on their linguistic journey, and I am committed to continuing this pursuit with enthusiasm and dedication.
