Bio:

I am a passionate English and Polish language teacher from Poland. Technology gives us many new possibilities. I prefer blended learning, which means taking advantage of traditional f2f techniques and opportunities confronted with new technologies. My students learn the language in different contexts, mostly by singing phrases, expressions, collocations, idioms, and phrasal verbs.

My teaching methodology:
Using songs:
  • Classic gap-fill
  • Comic strip: Songs that tell stories are great for students to make comic strips out of
  • Order the verses
  • Discussion
  • Tell the story
  • Write the next verse
Watching a movie:
  • Good for getting students to talk
  • Questions and answers Q&A
  • Write their answers
  • Worksheet with a list of vocabulary words in one column, and scrambled definitions in the more
My teaching background:

I have been teaching English online since 2010. I have taught children and adults. After 40 years of teaching, I became an experienced online professional tutor. I specialize in Conversational English. I also prepare for various tests, including the Cambridge and Oxford standardized exams.

My background outside of teaching:

I spent almost ten years in the USA and became an American Citizen in 2000. I am into Cultural Diversity, Music, Literature, and Movies. I believe in open, welcoming and interactive communication. I find Virtual Classes tremendously exciting and challenging.
