À propos

Passionate about teaching and learning, nothing gives me more pleasure or makes me more proud than watching my learners progress and achieve their goals.


Having been a foreign language learner myself, I know first-hand what it means and what it takes to learn another language and what kind of difficulties one needs to overcome.


I’ve got a good knowledge of and extensive training in language learning theories, language teaching methodologies, and have specialized in adult education.


If I were to describe myself as a teacher, I’d say that my key strengths are flexibility and diversity.  Identifying my learners’ individual needs, strengths, weaknesses, and personal interests is a key part of my work, and I always build my courses based on these.
