Note: My workshops in Germany are held in English und Deutsch in an unholy mixture. You may ask questions in German and I’ll come up with answers in some kind of German if need be! Fragen auf Deutsch sind willkommen, Antworte, Erklärungen und Beispiele werden mit Freuden auf die selbe Weise versucht.
