Intercultural Teaching

Teaching international students can be challenging for even the most experienced docents. Being an expert in your field is one thing, being aware of and navigating the pitfalls of a foreign language and socio-cultural differences is another.

My personal and academic background allows me to help you close that gap by highlighting both the impli­cit expectations we have when teaching and the character of the English language.

After having identified typical pitfalls, we then apply the newly developed communication patterns to your specific teaching situations and thus can make sure that your expertise in your discipline is matched by your international teaching skills.

I offer this coaching service in English or German, and it includes numerous hands-on exercises. Participants are provided a manual for future reference; German-speakers are also provided my book “Englisch in Siebenmeilenstiefeln”, which gives special insights into English from a German perspective.

After successful completion participants receive a certificate. All provided materials are treated confidentially.
