I plan my lessons meticulously, so they are well-structured to engage my students in a way that encourages active participation.
I have taught English to adults and adolescents of various nationalities and I know how to adjust my teaching strategies to diverse cultural backgrounds and learning styles.

I have been a language teacher for 19 years, I have worked and lived in different countries where I have taught English to students of various levels.
