Want to hear more about me?

 

Being a teacher has always been my dream job. I really feel that I was born to be a teacher. It could be said that languages, especially English, have always been my favorite field in school. I remember when I was a child that I used to watch TV or read books in English, so I can say my interest towards English was raised when I was just a little girl. Throughout high school years, I started to realize that ,sadly, people surround me had a very low level of English and it was due to the bad English education we received at school. It was at this point of my life when I decided to become a primary English teacher. 

​

Regarding the education field, I am familiarized to both formal and informal education. A part from my experience with children in schools and extracurricular English lessons, I've been volunteering for some years in the Scouts and working for some summer camps with young children. This experience has benefited me a lot when having to deal with children. 

​

If I had to describe myself I would say that I am a very active and energetic person, I enjoy doing things all the time so as not to have a monotonous life, and I am also very sociable since I like working with people and learning from other cultures and languages. Besides, I am told I am patient, organized and responsible which I believe that are important features that a teacher must have. What's more, creativity is one of my strong points: I am very fond of photography and art in general, and I love transmitting this passion to children.
