Karl F. Bey
He studied law in Münster and Seattle. He supports his team with his almost inexhaustible background knowledge on almost every topic. Regardless of whether it’s about regional studies in the field of translation or presentations in the field of adult education, he is always on hand and has become an indispensable member of our team over the years.
Johannes K. Bey – A new star in the language firmament
Johannes officially joined our team as a freelancer in August 2024. He studied European linguistics, cultural studies and political science in the Netherlands and France. He holds an Erasmus Mundus Joint Master’s degree from both the Dutch Rijksuniversiteit Groningen, one of the top 100 universities in the world, and the French Université de Strasbourg.
Raised completely bilingually from an early age and having grown up in both an international and multicultural environment, he possesses invaluable knowledge in the field of intercultural know-how. During his Master’s thesis in particular, he focused on this field of research in order to identify and eliminate inherent misunderstandings between Germans communicating directly and native English speakers acting diplomatically in order to initiate a fruitful dialog.
Johannes loves languages. He is fluent in German, English and French. More foreign languages are in the making!
His strengths lie not only in language training and interpreting, but he is also acting as a cultural coach based on his knowledge of how the communicative skills of globally acting companies situated in Saxony can be promoted further in order to operate successfully in a worldwide market.
He is therefore a wonderful addition to our team.
