More details about my language interests
I have a passion for languages, both academically and in daily life. I am currently studying Translation for Spanish and I hold a C1 Advanced certificate in English, so I am very comfortable communicating and helping others improve their fluency. My future path is also dedicated to education: I am about to start my Master’s degree in teaching German as a Foreign Language. Because of this, I would love to help my hosts or their children learn or practice German, English, or Spanish. For me, language exchange is one of the best ways to connect with people and truly understand a new culture.

More details about your skills

My expertise lies in languages and people. I am a native German speaker and fluent in English and Spanish, and I love using these skills to bridge cultural gaps, help with guest relations, or administrative tasks. I am great with guest relations and communication. I have a knack for making people of all ages feel welcome and comfortable. I am a reliable, empathetic, and proactive person who enjoys being part of a team.
I am happy working with children—whether it’s playing creative games, teaching, helping with homework, or supporting their daily routines.
In addition to my communication skills, I like to work with digital tools and social media. I am looking for tasks that allow me to learn and engage with the community.
