Hello everyone,
My name is Catherine Spencer. I am lecturer and Programme chair in the School of Languages, Law & Social Sciences in TU Dublin. I studied German & French at Dublin City University and then lectured in Dublin City University and at Karl-Franzens-University in Graz, Austria.
My Masters research (DCU) focused on translation and reception of the Austrian playwright, Arthur Schnitzler, and for PhD on post-war Austrian identity and memory (University of Birmingham).
I teach German language, Intercultural competence, Translation and am currently researching student mobility experiences and perspectives around multilingualism, language learning and intercultural competence and completing an MSc Education (TU Dublin).
Delighted to be working with all of you from Darmstadt (where I happily lived for 6 months during my studies) and from Cartagena (only visited for a day). Looking forward to working with you and building our blog together.
