After working as a lecturer for German language in the International Logistics Management BA Program „LOGinCHINA“ at Hefei University from 09/2012 to 07/2014, I relocated to Shanghai, where I began lecturing in the German department at East China Normal University until 02/2022. My work fields included Translation Studies, Linguistics, German as a Foreign Language, Business German and Intercultural Communication.
