I am communicative and easy-going, with good sense of humour and get on well with students. I am trying to prepare lessons which suit my students’ needs. The materials I use help my lessons to be action-packed, so that they develop all language skills. Using video clips, short puzzles and various games facilitates the learning process in a more entertaining way and students usually love it. Those who choose to prepare for FCE or CAE with develop their skills and practise all exam tasks with authentic materials and past papers as I have a huge collection of exam tasks, including some that I have made myself. The atmosphere during my lessons is relaxing, student-centred and includes a variety of interactive exercises so that students do not get bored and learn while playing.
I am a UK registered Teacher, M.Ed. in English, with TESOL, QTS for all age groups, with long teaching practice at school, college and university with all kinds of students (including foreign students) and adults at all levels. I have extensive experience in teaching English, intensive language program at high school on amended British curriculum, preparation for Cambridge ESOL exams, TOEFL, IELTS, GCSE A level and University exams.
I have taught in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait and the UK. In the UK I worked ten times as an ESL Teacher for BC accredited summer schools, teaching students from all over the world and conducting workshops on Cambridge exams. In summer 2019 and 2022 I taught EAP on pre-sessional courses at Southampton University - we prepared Chinese students to continue their HE in the UK. I also teach online - ESP and General English to adults for a language school in Germany and Switzerland
