About Me

I believe that mastering foundational concepts is essential before tackling advanced topics. My teaching approach emphasizes getting the basics right, ensuring a solid groundwork for deeper learning. I am approachable but maintain a structured environment that discourages slacking. Decisive and adaptable, I tailor the course load to match each student's learning pace. To make complex ideas more accessible, I use analogies and abstraction, breaking down difficult concepts into intuitive, understandable components.

Western Armenian is a language that has been put in the endangered language's list, and I personally believe that such a rich language should never die. I believe that I am taking a huge initiative to be one of the individuals who'll try to save this important language from disappearing.
I try to make my lessons as interacting as possible. The lessons and exercises will be provided through PowerPoint presentations. I try to listen to my student in order to prepare the lesson plan together, according to his needs and preferences.
I've always been the smiling and friendly tutor who makes the student comfortable during the lessons. I believe that in order to reach the students you need to understand them also emotionally and psychologically.
