About Me
italki teacher since Jul 29, 2020Me as a Teacher
I am an EFL teacher since 1998. I taught EFL at a French primary school in Romania and was the head of foreign languages department at a school in Turkey where I coordinated the Oxford Placement Tests and Cambridge YLE, KET, PET, FCE exams. I taught Turkish in the Turkish Embassy in Bucharest. I am experienced in English Acquisition, the British National Curriculum at primary level, IBMYP I&S, IBMYP History and IGCSE/AS/A Level History for Years 11 & 12. In China, I was Head of English Acquisition and an IB English teacher. I am CELTA certified and have a qualification from Lancaster Uni to teach dyslexic students. I have been working in Uganda at an international school for two years. My lessons & teaching style
First, we will determine your level and goals in your target language either orally during our class, or through a placement test before our first lesson. Our studies will be led according to your set goals, whether that be passing a specific exam or achieving a personal target within a given time. I always prepare lesson plans that meet the needs of each learner because differentiation is one of my priorities. I make sure to use different processes and learning approaches according to students’ learning pace. I find it useful to teach languages by using different presentational tools (many of which I personally have created) such as videos, prezi, emaze or other materials listed below.Certificates
