Who is Jutta?
Jutta joined School of Gaming in 2026 as a game educator. She sees game education as a perfect way to combine all her strengths and skills: she has a background in teaching, she knows gaming by heart and she has worked as a game programmer in a company they co-founded. For Jutta, game education means releasing the potential of games to help the players learn more about problem-solving, develop their social skills and grow as a person in a safe space. She believes that through games everyone is able to explore real-life skills and topics and let their creativity shine.
Jutta loves learning and is constantly developing their own skills by challenging herself. She loves the feeling when you figure out something new or realize you are able to do something you couldn't previously achieve. She wants to do everything she can to let others experience the same, and with her pedagogical background, Jutta has tools for that.
She has a long history as a game geek, starting from board games and mobile games as a young kid, and during her teenage years Jutta slowly started to really get into PC gaming as well. She plays a huge variety of games depending on her mood and whether she's playing by herself or with others. Sometimes she would call Valheim her favorite game, sometimes it is PlateUp!, or maybe Pokemon Go or Civilization VI or some board game no one has even heard of.
In addition to gaming, Jutta loves knitting, binge-watching series and going for walks with her dog. One of her favorite things in the world is eating chocolate-chip cookies. She has a very optimistic view on life and when she meets new people, they learn very quickly that she has a loud laugh that can be heard very often.
