My teaching background:
With extensive experience in language teaching, I have had the pleasure of working with a diverse range of students. From August 2022 to May 2023, I taught young children and adults from Polish, Japanese, and Brazilian backgrounds through one-on-one lessons on Preply. Following that, from May 2023 to August 2024, I taught group lessons to Italian and Spanish university students and adults at Edusogno. This rich experience has equipped me with the skills to effectively teach both Business English and General English to a variety of learners.
My background outside of teaching:
I bring a diverse professional background that enhances my ability to connect with students and meet their unique needs. With a strong foundation in electrical engineering, I understand the technical language and can assist students who need English for specialized fields of complex concepts in a simple and clear manner. As a seasoned traveler who has visited 12 countries in 12 months, I have a deep appreciation for cultural diversity and can relate to students from various backgrounds. Additionally, my work as a model and a content creator reflects my creativity and adaptability, which I incorporate into my teaching methods to make lessons more dynamic and enjoyable. Choosing me as your teacher means you'll benefit from a well-rounded professional who brings a wealth of knowledge, cultural sensitivity, and a passion for helping students succeed in their language learning journey.
