Estefanía
School Management
I’m Spanish and have been living in Vienna since 2000. I studied Romance Philology with a focus on German in Madrid, after completing a vocational training in Administration and Management and a one-year module in Programming and Management.
During my studies, I worked as a translator in various Spanish companies. After graduating, I worked in a Spanish company in charge of foreign trade while also teaching Spanish and German at several language schools in Austria and Spain, including International House and the Instituto Cervantes.
Through the EU exchange program Leonardo da Vinci, I came to Vienna as a group leader. Eventually, I decided to stay in Austria, where I worked for seven years as a translator for an international NGO.
At the same time, I completed a six-month international master’s program and earned a certificate as a specialist in online and blended learning. Shortly after, I took the step toward independence.
This is how elebe was born in 2011 – a project that brings together everything I love: teaching languages, designing and publishing content, creating interactive materials on our Caramba platform, and bringing the world of Spanish and German closer to people. Looking back, it feels like my entire professional and personal journey has led me to this project, one I’m especially proud of.
Meine Stärken liegen im spielerischen Unterricht und im Einsatz von Technologie im Lernprozess. Außerdem genieße ich es, mit meinen Schülern zu kochen und ihnen die kulinarische Kultur als Teil ihres Spanischkurses näherzubringen. Ich bin kreativ, voller Ideen und liebe es, diese in die Praxis umzusetzen.
