Profile

I am a research assistant and PhD student in the Department of English and American Studies, as well as an advisor for international students in the International Relations Office at the University of Koblenz. 

During my own studies (Bachelor and Master of Education, English and Biology) at this university, I developed a strong interest in Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL). Building on this, I aim to combine my two areas of work by researching the linguistic and didactic implications of the internationalisation of higher education in the context of my PhD thesis.

I am also the assistant contact person for the department's study abroad programme with the University of Birmingham.

Please note that I work only part-time for the department (Wednesday afternoon, Thursday and Friday).
