As a Native Speaker, integrating the bilingual elements into day-to-day routine is just a simple matter of being there and immersing the children in English. It is amazing how quickly the kids will pick up new words and begin to understand you when you simply repeat back to them in English what they have said in German. Since starting at Joki I have often been surprised at how easy it has been to introduce the bilingual component into the group.

Joki has everything to offer – under one-roof. Especially the in-house trainings and workshops provided bring the Native Speakers closer and the contents are very interesting too. Also, working with colleagues from different ethnic backgrounds has made it easier for me to establish my career in Munich. I am glad to have found my second home here at Joki!

Working for Joki has been a great experience. The bilingual concept is both, great for the native English speakers as well as for the children. I am very happy at Joki!

Working at Joki has been truly rewarding when I see how much the children benefit from full immersion in a bilingual setting. Through Joki I have also been given many opportunities for my personal growth – I really appreciate it!

I have been working at Joki for three years now. For the first year I worked in the nursery and then I switched to Kindergarten. I decided last year that I wanted to study to become an “Early Years Educator”. Joki were incredibly supportive of this idea. I feel very comfortable here and come to work safe in the knowledge that the bilingual concept works and that my team supports and understands me!
