That's my wife Karin. She just started teaching full-time at a school for children with special needs in the areas of social and emotional development. Right now she teaches nearly all subjects to primarily 2nd graders. Her specialties, though, are art and a subject (Sachunterricht) for which I have still yet to find an equivalent in the US educational system. It's primarily natural science, but it includes all kinds of other stuff too. In Germany, you have to attach a picture any time you apply for a job or just about anything else. This was her application picture.
