Our team consists of both German and Exnglish native speaking teachers. Please see further information below. Our teachers work according to the "immersion" principle, which means that everyone speaks to the children in their native language. Our teachers have a large range of experience and education that makes them exceptionally prepared for teaching and supporting young children.
Our Head Teacher
Crystal is our full-time English speaking teacher and pedagogical manager. She is from Australia and has a bachelor in Early Childhood Education. She has over 15 years experience in a variety of educational settings and has spent the last 9 years teaching in bilingual kindergartens in Munich. Crystal is focused on implementing nurturing and empowering learning programs that foster children’s autonomy and agency in social environments. She is looking forward to continuing her work in a bilingual setting and fostering a love of learning for the children at Bubbles.
Our German Speaking Teacher
Christine is our German speaking teacher and works 30 h/week for Bubbles. She was born in Frankfurt am Main, where she worked for 20 years as a secretary for international companies. She completed her training as a teacher in Munich in 2010. Christine has worked for parent initiatives in Munich for the past 14 years. She also had the chance to spend one year as au pair in New York. That's why she especially likes the international atmosphere at Bubbles. As kindergarten is a very formative time, she sees it as a privilege to learn, to laugh, to romp around and also to be serious sometimes with the children.
