Sibylle
Certified Tutor
I am a graduate of The University of Heidelberg. I received the equivalent to an M.A. in Translation (English, German, Spanish) with a focus on Medical Translation.
I am also a registered nurse, hence my focus on medical translations.
Since graduation, I have started my own translation business and have taught German at various co-ops. I have also taught ESL/EFL online (as I am a certified ESL instructor). While I tutor and teach a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about English, German, Medicine, Literature, and History. I am a firm believer in languages opening up a whole new world and and erasing cross-cultural barriers. I believe that knowing more than one language is an absolute necessity for an improved quality of life, and I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, riding my bike, hiking, painting and knitting.
I believe that personal encouragement and motivation is very important, to children and adults alike.
I love my students and I love seeing them thrive under the right guidance!
I am looking forward to meeting you and/or your child.

I love reading. I am a total bookworm and I enjoy reading actual books printed on paper. I also enjoy spending time outside hiking and biking. Another great passion of mine is knitting. You will find me knitting on the bus, in the car, at restaurants, at the playground, at the doctor's office, etc.
