I was born in a sunny Republic of Kyrgyzstan but grew up and got education and priceless work experience in Belarus. In 2020 I moved to Wroclaw where I currently live. I have also visited many other countries like the UK, the US, Italy, Austria, Lithuania, Latvia, Turkey etc. and I find every culture unique and worth knowing.
I am a very creative person, play the piano, sing in a gospel choir and I am a keen participant of various musical events.
Meine Kreationen
Ich als Lehrkraft
I graduated from Minsk State Linguistic University with a BA in teaching foreign languages (English) and teaching a foreign language (mainly English to adults) has been my full-time occupation since 2009. In 2014 I was CELTA-qualified in Minsk and absolutely enjoyed working with groups in a private language center, teaching General and Business English on all levels, as well as giving lessons on job interview preparation. Since 2019 I have been officially employed in an IT company. As a corporate English instructor I work remotely and I help employees boost their language level, track their progress as well as take part in their professional language assessments.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
My main teaching principles:
1. Make it as enjoyable as possible by building and maintaining trust with students and giving feasible instructions by splitting language practice into smaller steps
2. Creating a context for learning
3. Natural communication, discussing the topics that are relevant to a student
4. As much as possible, I teach in the foreign language by grading it, in order to develop thinking skills in the language that I teach
5. I use a lot of visual materials, like Power point presentations, games and many other online teaching tools
6. I ask a lot of questions to help get started but also encourage initiative and will be happy to be asked!
