- CRITICAL THINKING? (this helps in EXAM contexts and in LIFE in general)

- speaking? Then what situations do you find speaking challenging? On the phone, when speaking with native or non-native speakers? Can you tell me more?

- listening? Is it because they speak too fast or because if their accent?

- reading? Are you focusing on academic texts?

As well as being an English teacher, I am an engineer in cryogenics which means you can rely on me when it comes to understanding or talking about technical specs of a machine or a process.

I am very curious teacher, I love teaching because I love learning new things from my students. Whether it is about a routine, a culture customs, an idea or a point of view, it is all interesting for me. I always try to know my students better to deliver better tailored lessons.

The second thing I enjoy as much as teaching is traveling and discovering new cultures, dishes, nature and especially people from different parts of the world. Sometimes, while traveling, I like volunteering in orphanages.

I love traveling and reading. I have been to all continents except Antarctica. I have been to a place called Murmansk which is above the polar circle in the Arctic. I usually read self help books and books that talk about psychology.

I am a qualified Cambridge teacher (CELTA) and have higher qualification from Cambridge (DELTA, which is of the level of MA in English given / accredited by Cambridge). I have been teaching English and sometimes French since I was studying at university. I have mainly taught at the British Council in three different countries and have taught exam preparation classes (e.g. IELTS, TOEFL, CAE, etc), ESP (English for Specific Purposes like psychology, medicine, oil and gas, tourism, engineering, etc.) and EAP (English for academic purposes) in which you can improve your English skills for university or work related topics.

As I have taught in Malaysia, Morocco, Mexico, Russia, Kyrgyzstan and Turkey I can understand how some students process a language and try to make it easier by giving some tricks and tips.
