About Me
Passionate about learning, I have completed a PGCE, a BA Honors Degree in Applied Linguistics and hold a BA Degree in Fashion Design. Additionally, I have a TEFL certificate. I have over 14 years of teaching experience to adults as well as young learners. My philosophy of education is simple. I believe that learning should be engaging. The aim of the teacher should be to teach students how to think, rather than what to think. The best teacher is the one who suggests rather than dogmatizes, and inspires their students with the wish to teach themselves. According to most members of the language teaching profession, the learning potential of students is increased when their attitudes towards a language are positive. For me, teaching provides an opportunity for continual learning and growth. One of my hopes as an educator is to instill a love of learning in my students, as I share my own passion for learning with them.
