Jeannie
30 years of experience making German fun!
I was born in America to a German family that no longer spoke German. I learned it in school, and loved it so much that I earned a Ph.D. in it. I've learned other languages as well, and I continue to learn more about German and other languages because it is a rollicking adventure!

In my professional life, I have taught German gr... Read more
