Frau Koch

Frau Koch was a fourth-grade teacher. Francesca Gimpel was in her class. Koch was known universally as "The Beast", because of her strict teaching methods, quick use of the paddle, and general devotion to Nazism.

Koch spoke in support of Konrad Jahnke's article, Enough is Enough, a rebuttal to Fuhrer Heinz Buckliger's call for reforms. However, she also followed the Nazi philosophy of the infallibility of the Fuhrer, and so gave contradictory lessons in her class.

After the Gimpel children had been taken into custody on suspicion of being Jews, Koch made life particularly difficult for Francesca after her release. Shortly after the SS's failed Putsch at the end of 2010, Koch was replaced.
