About me - Eva Maler

How to put a life into words?

Well, I'm a 21-year-old Londoner (through moving - originally, I'm from Germany) who loves to write, share knowledge - and most of all to act.

My writing credits are few, but precious:

Arts & Humanities > British Authors Is J.K. Rowling turning the Harry Potter series into dark literature rather than youth literature?: 1 of 36
Do you remember what it was like to be 10 years old? What books you loved? What stories captured your imagination? Whether your answer involved Grimm's fairy-tales, The Lord of the Rings, or Narnia - chances are magic and a very graphic struggle between "good" and "evil" featured. And this is the only way it should be, becaus... More..
Arts & Humanities > Language Learning Tips Tips for learning a foreign language: 2 of 44
There are as much best ways to learn a language as there are languages. My experience of learning a foreign language (English) and teaching a foreign language (German) tought me one thing: There is no such thing like a best way. Each student is different, has different needs and another best way to learn the language. Sho... More..
Politics, News & Issues > International Politics (Other) Should the US continue to be the leader in world politics?: 3 of 57
Let me tell you a story of a little German girl who used to think the US of A where an amazing model country for democracy because they freed her country from the most evil regime imaginable.

According to the BBC 41.9 out of 1000 girls between 15 and 17 years old conceived in 2007 (that is 1 % up from the previous year). While, I hope, we all agree tha... More..
Arts & Humanities > Thoughts on Writing The realities of being a writer: 14 of 43
From Aspiring to Writer- but how? "I am a writer." Yes, though I've never published a book and at the moment struggle to see my first play put on stage, I think I've earned the right to use this line. I've been writing since I was able to hold a pen (I'm useless at drawing, and I had to put the pen to use somehow). Little p... More..
Education > Educational Philosophy How to continue your child's education through the summer months: 41 of 72
Somewhere deep down inside myself a voice is speaking to me: There's a time for studying, and there is a time for play. Important as academic education is; recreation, socialising and out-of-school-experience are no less significance. Given the TV is switched off and you, the parents keep yourselves firmly in the background c... More..
