Brikena Kastrati joined the Germanic and Slavic Studies department in August 2019. Prior to moving to Canada, she completed her teacher education program at the University of Kassel, Germany, with English and History as her teaching subjects.
Her interest in languages originates from the migration of her parents from Kosovo to Germany leading to a bilingual background. Learning German as well as English, French and Spanish as further foreign languages herself, she now pursues a communicative and student-centered teaching approach in order to teach and coordinate the German 101 and 102 courses.
