Anna is originally from Ukraine. She has always been fascinated by languages and cultures and is proficient in German, English, Ukrainian and Russian. She received her master’s degree in economics in Kyiv, Ukraine and in 2006 her sense of wanderlust brought her over to Germany, where she got her MBA in International Business at the University of Stuttgart. She also attended multiple courses by Goethe Institut and ifa (Institut für Auslandsbeziehungen) to expand her knowledge of German. In 2021, after living and working in Germany for over 15 years, she, her American husband and two bilingual children moved to Naperville. She is currently working for her German employer and focusing on developing the US market. She is excited to be teaching and sharing her German knowledge and cultural experiences.
