Me as a Teacher
I've been teaching online and offline since 2016. I have taught one-on-one and group lessons.
I taught English offline at Minsk State Linguistic University for over 5 years and I've also worked in several online schools.
I have CPE (C2 Cambridge level) certificate.
I also have CELTA (international teaching certification) and TEFL (international teaching certification) certificates.
My lessons & teaching style
I really enjoy teaching. Teaching is my calling and my passion, and I’m always happy when my students become better and better. I like to tailor my lessons to suit my students’ needs and motivations and help them reach their goals.

Really good vibes and I really like how she jumps from one point to another on the material we are using to adapt the class.
Also she is sending me (as I requested) homework so I can make extra work after the classes

I recommend the teacher. We use a book on the lessons which allows stick to the schedule and taking a systematic approach to learning. There are homework and review of the material, which helps in better understanding and remember the material. Lessons are conducted on time. It's better to try than read reviews 100 times:))

Мне понравилось узнавать новые факты о жизни в другой стране (разговор на англ. языке). Уточнение о том, как более корректно говорить те или иные слова на англ. (плавный переход между буквами в слове, глухой или нет звук, какие буквы в англ. не произносятся в разных словах и др.). Преподаватель следит за тем как вы читаете или произносите слова и исправляет (если необходимо), что бы научиться правильно и грамотно разговаривать на англ. языке
