Hi there! I'm Amanda, a certified professional English as a Second/Foreign Language teacher originally from Illinois, USA. With a specialization in teaching English to children, I'm deeply passionate about nurturing young minds worldwide through the joys of language learning. Living and traveling abroad has given me the experience of learning a second and third language as well as the privilege of immersing myself in diverse cultures. This deeply enriches my teaching practice with a global perspective. When I'm not in the classroom, you'll find me enjoying quality time with my family, playing with my dogs, reading books , and experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen.Показать перевод

Trained in cross-cultural communication, I adapt teaching to meet the diverse cultures of my students. I create a fun and safe learning environment for kids, encouraging their output and learning through patience and high-quality lessons.Мои уроки и стиль преподавания
