What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to utilize my linguistic skills and passion for education, ideally in a collaborative environment that values language diversity and cultural exchange.

As a Master of Arts in Linguistics candidate at the University of Konstanz, I have developed a strong foundation in language analysis and education. My thesis, which explores the perception of non-nativeness in Polish, reflects my passion for understanding linguistic nuances. I graduated with a final grade of 1.5, showcasing my dedication and academic excellence.

In my role as a Tandem Team Assistant, I successfully organized conferences and managed the Tandem language exchange program, enhancing my organizational and communication skills. My experience as a freelance English tutor allowed me to create personalized learning materials, demonstrating my ability to adapt to individual student needs. I am fluent in Polish, English, and Spanish, and possess a working knowledge of German, which enables me to connect with diverse audiences.
