About Me

Are you looking for support?
Here is what I can offer you:
As a nature and wilderness educator, I am often out and about, researching and discovering animals, tracks, landscapes, plants, herbs, ... a love that I like to share.
As a jewelry designer, I design my own jewelry, create and create individual treasures from the bottom of my heart.
In addition, I love to individually support, inspire and find out with you what you love; how exactly you learn; what you want to learn and what is the problem with the subject areas that are difficult for you.

I offer you individual support where you need support as well as various courses on the topics of jewelry making, repair / upcycling and nature experience. And yes, you can also do it online :)

All my courses are currently available online. As soon as it is possible again and feels safe enough for me, I will also offer small courses for 3 to 6 children in the Berlin area or come to your home.

Education

I studied environmental science, geography, geology, and education. Most of the time, however, I learned that by doing, on excursions with my hands in the ground and in further training. I taught myself how to make jewelry and I am constantly learning new techniques.
Officially, I have the following degrees:
- Diploma in Geography (with minor subjects Geology & Education)
- Nature educator (certified by the nature school Germany)
- Wilderness pedagogue & tracker (both certified by the Wilderness School Hoher Fläming)

Homework support / tuition in elementary school (all subjects; focus on natural sciences)

50 C$ /h

I support online homeschooling or long-term with homework. My main concern is to approach the tasks with patience, love and joy and to support children individually according to their needs.
I studied geography, physics and education and have been working as a nature and wilderness pedagogue a lot with children outside for over 10 years, inspiring and supporting research and experimentation. In the current time when I cannot and may not offer many offers outside, I am finding other ways to support children. I would like to do this in a timely manner, ie if you wish, I will also support you online with your homework after the lockdown or inspire you to new research and discovery trips.

Egg tempera is one of the most ancient historical art painting technique. It preserved as a main technique to paint orthodox religious icons. It is possible to learn it and paint your own icon. I have 12 years of practice teaching people how to do it.

Tie and dye is an ancient global form of art that originated independently across various cultures, with the earliest examples dating back to the 5th–8th century AD in China, Japan, Peru, and India. Known as a form of "resist dyeing," it involves binding or folding fabric to prevent dye from reaching certain areas. In the Southwestern area of Nigeria it is called - "ADIRE".

Every Art has its history - “Nothing exists without an origin”

Adire is more than just a textile; it's a reflection of Nigeria’s civilization and culture. Each design is a testament to the rich heritage of our culture and nation.
