Teaching Assistant, Junior and Lower Elem Academy
Anja is a native of Germany where she graduated from Heidelberg University with an MA in Linguistics and Translation. Anja speaks German, English, French, and some Spanish. After working full time as a translator and interpreter for the German Armed Forces for 16 years, she changed gears and started teaching German since she got married and had a baby. Anja worked for FCPS ACE, the German Language Courses in Maryland and George Mason University.
She currently teaches private students and accepts translation requests from FCPS and private individuals.
When homeschooling her daughter Elizabeth in 7th grade, Anja discovered Inquisiminds and her daughter attended the school. After Elizabeth was accepted at a private school, Anja subbed at IQ last year both as an assistant and a teacher. She is very excited to return as a permanent staff member helping out in the Thursday and Friday Juniors’ groups.
