"Gabi’s German classes are taught at a comfortable and engaging pace. Her knowledge of German culture adds a lot to the course and she is happy to field questions from students that enhance the experience. It’s easy to see that Gabi really cares about each student getting a lot of benefits out of the class and coming away with an appreciation of German language and culture.”
