Adela is one of the teachers who teaches German on the Sapientify platform and has just been announced “Teacher of the Month” for Mars 2021.
We conducted a short interview with Adele. We invite you to read it.
Congratulations on the Teacher of the Month announcement, ADELE!
1.Why do you think you won this title?
What is teaching for you?
I think I won this title because my enthusiasm and dedication has been noticed AND efforts have yielded the desired fruits in terms of learning transmitted knowledge.
For me teaching is a responsibility and a privilege, we have the responsibility of transmitting knowledge clearly and effectively, and privilege as we have the opportunity to work in the profession of the heart and there is no greater pleasure than when you see that you are developing this profession very successfully.
- Is it true that “the German language is too muche difficult to learn "?
I think not, it's not true. Every language that is learned takes a lot of time, as well as commitment. The same thing happens with the German language. If you have motivation and set your goals, it comes out very easily. If there are people who think the opposite I want to tell you that: Hard, but not impossible!
If you have motivation and set your goals, it comes out very easily.
- Can you mention 3 the most effective techniques for learning German?
According to me, the technique is endless. These techniques depend on adapting the understanding to each individual. For, each of us I think chooses the method of where it feels best.
For example: In every situation we are in, we have to imagine it to explain it in German, we need to talk, to express even with mistakes. If we do not talk, if we do not listen to ourselves it will be difficult to improve in speech. If we are not mistaken, we do not learn!
Being in touch with language every day is a lot, very important.
Another way is to listen to songs in German, as the lyrics are easy to memorize and may stick in your mind. Being in touch with language every day is a lot, very important, makes you understand even more like even one, two or three words to learn while listening to a news story, reading a newspaper or movie of any language level you are, believe it is worth it!
To sum it all up, think of all techniques, our practice and will would be of the greatest importance, which must be unstoppable.
