I try to organize interactive, collaborative and student-centered classes, using traditional and innovative methods. I choose teaching methods based on many factors: learners’ age, language level, educational needs, abilities, goals and interests. My preferred methods of teaching are; TBL (Task-based learning), PBL (Project-based learning), verbal repetition, communicative approach, role play, retelling, thematic conversation, debate, shadowing, reflective observation, and so on.
I try to be flexible when scheduling lessons.
Online only
Most dedicated teacher you can hope for.
