My name is Daniela. I am originally from Germany and have been living in the US most of my adult life. My passion has been teaching for as long as I can remember and I taught in a classroom for over 30 years. Recently I retired, but still have the desire to share my accumulated experience and knowledge with students, just in a somewhat less demanding setting and preferably with one student at a time. I love to converse about a variety of subjects, read, walk, eat good food and live a healthy lifestyle.
