Expert Profile: Cornelia Neumann

Expertise: I can answer questions regarding grammar and style, as well as many questions about German culture, history, and literature.

Experience in the area
I am native speaker with a German degree in Teaching English as a Foreign Language and German. I lived and worked in the USA for seven years (taught high school and all college levels) and spent three years as a high school teacher of German and EFL at an international school in Mexico. In 2006 I returned to Germany, where I am currently working as a teacher in Hamburg.
