Graciela (Grace) Suraniti My name is Graciela Suraniti de Heers. I am married and I have two children. I come from Argentina where I studied English at the University of Mar del Plata and qualified as an English teacher. In 1984 I joined the staff of Mar del Plata Day School as a teacher of English as a second language. I performed my duties both at primary and secondary levels until 1989 when I decided to take up residence in Germany. I also worked 6 years in Argentina for a private language institute gaining experience in teaching different age groups at different levels. In 1987 the institute offered me a scholarship for a teachers' refresher course in England and I also acted as a tour leader for a group of students.

I was born in 1961 in Akrotiri, Cyprus. Having spent most of my childhood education in a private English boarding school, whilst my parents moved around Africa, I left school, and attended Beauty school in London. After I qualified I continued traveling, working in Bahrain, Dubai and then working on cruise ships for 5 years. I moved to Hannover in 1987, where I was an aupair for a year and started to learn German. From 1988 – 1995 I worked at the Parfumerie Liebe until my first son Aaron was born, my second son Laurent was born in 1999. January 2001 I founded the “Spielsprachschule Abrakadabra”, a new challenge, the work with children and the English language has made me rich in new experiences, motivating me to take the whole thing a step further and founding “Pelita's English Kindergarten” in August 2007. |
