Hallo

My Story

"To learn a language is to have one more window from which to look at the World."

Hallo all! Welcome to Connecting Spheres – German Language Academy where our aim is to not only teach the language but to create excitement and generate interest in the language.

My journey of German language started in a casual way. During my bachelors degree I thought that being able to speak an additional language would be helpful in future and give me a competitive edge. With that in mind, I joined Max Mueller Bhavan (MMB) in Pune, India but little did I know at the time that I would fall in love with this beautiful language and also be able to teach it. It all started with my first German teacher at MMB who was extremely talented and friendly. Her interactive teaching style struck a chord with me and I was quickly able to become an expert in my batch. Due my thorough basics and grammar knowledge with the ability to simplify and explain, my classmates started approaching me with questions after the class and that’s how I discovered my passion for teaching. 

After completing all levels of German language, I started teaching at different Institutes and soon realized that there was a critical portion missing – I have been teaching the German language but never actually been to Germany. I have only read about the culture but never experienced it first hand. That’s when I planned to attend a summer course in Translation and Interpretation at Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz. When I came back to India after the course, I learnt that my students were awaiting my return to restart their classes and didn’t continue with another teacher – this was the biggest testament of my teaching skills. I continued teaching many more students for 3 more years and then again decided to spend a few months in Germany to complete my final levels. I got an opportunity to study at F+U Academy at Heidelberg for 6 months. During this memorable period I made numerous new connections, lived the German way of life enjoying beer, Currywurst, berliner bread  and felt very welcoming only because I could speak the local language fluently. After completing TELC German courses I received ‘TELC A1-A2 Lizenz’ holder certification. The beautiful experience of 1 year in Germany has helped me grow more in the way that now I can relate to the German lessons and can narrate it to the students in fun and exciting way.

             I have been teaching now for 4 years has been more than a hobby or a profession – It is my passion! My aim is to deliver the best to the students and watch them grow and excel.
