Experience
I graduated from the University of Mainz in Germany, where I earned a master's degree in Romance languages and literature, with a focus on Spanish language and culture. During this time, I also learned a lot about general linguistics, as well as European history in the medieval and early modern areas. I also hold a master's degree in economics, which I received from the University of Economics - Varna, in Bulgaria. Throughout my time in graduate school, I tutored students in English, Spanish, and German. My experience as a teacher taught me the importance of education and how it can be used as a way to empower people. I firmly believe in the success of a student-centered teaching approach, especially when working with language learners. Coming up with creative activities is essential to ensuring that students stay motivated and retain what they've learned in the classroom. I also work hard to get to know my students so that I'm better equipped to help them succeed by utilizing their existing strengths. When I'm not tutoring or learning more about history, I like to spend my time reading and watching movies. My other hobbies include traveling abroad, baking, and cooking new types of food.
