About Me
Hi! I’m Sandra — a certified language teacher, intercultural trainer, and lifelong explorer of cultures, languages, and stories.
I’m half German, half Tunisian, and fully in love with communication. I speak seven languages (German, Arabic, French, English, Spanish, Turkish, and Italian) and have taught students from all over the world — from classrooms in France to remote calls with learners in Latin America, the Middle East, and Europe.
