About Me

I have received my MA degree in Education in 2011 and since then I have been traveling and teaching in different countries around the world. I think traveling is essential for a good teacher as it helps to understand different cultures and mentalities and helps a teacher become a global citizen. Another passion of mine is art - I have been writing and illustrating stories and educational materials for children for over 6 years now. I think creativity is very important in teaching and I try to always keep my lessons interesting, creative and fun. I believe that learning a language or a skill should be a fun, enjoyable process and I teach in accordance with this belief.
My passion for art helps me in my work with special needs students as well. I work with children on autism spectrum and children with sensory processing disorders as an Art therapists, Occupational therapists, Language teacher, and Social skills tutors.

Art is the best way not only to express yourself and your feelings but also to look inside of your mind and your soul and to get to know yourself better.
In just several weeks I can teach my students the basics of picture composition, proportion, perspective and volume. I can work (and teach) with different art media - depending on student's preferrences.

Learning English now is fun, I'm specialized in teaching English with digital tools making the class more fun, every level has its own techniques, and there is no age restriction, If you just want to learn you came across the right person. Together we can do it.

It can be helpful if this applies to you 👇

😩I don't feel comfortable speaking English and I think my pronunciation is horrible!
😵I feel confused about when to use which preposition and I am not sure how and when to use those English tenses...
🤔I think I speak English well enough but I don't know so many words and sometimes I just don't know what to say.

Does this sound familiar? 🧐 Well, then I have good news! 🤗 I can help you with everything mentioned above and I can help you with that from the comfort of your home! 🏡
