Karolina was born in Bavaria. She became better known as Mother Mary Teresa and part of the order of School Sisters Of Notre Dame. She was outspoken by nature and saw to it that many of her ideas were put into practice. She had a talent for spotting different educational needs and started the first kindergartens and the first technical schools in Bavaria. Despite some church opposition she gradually won the respect of all church and civic authorities as well as the love of parents of her school children. Her work continues today in south and central America, Europe, Africa, Asia and the Pacific Islands.
