- How did you get into teaching languages?
My love of languages and literature were first combined when I worked as a volunteer at a school in Colombia where I taught English as a foreign language for children and literacy for adults. This rewarding first experience as a young teacher led me to complete my CELTA training in 2014 and I have been working as a teacher ever since. - Experience in teaching languages?
I have taught all levels, from absolute beginners to proficiency level students, and worked in primary and secondary schools, English academies, and summer camps. Working mainly with young children and teens, I have had experience of leading conversation classes, activity workshops in English and exam preparation classes. - Why do you like being a language teacher?
I like being a language teacher for the variety that each day can bring, the opportunities to be creative in the classroom and for the surprising and entertaining conversations that often come up. - Style of teaching?
As a teacher, my main aim is always to get the students talking as much as possible, using games, videos, articles and projects to help students use English in real-world contexts to talk about topics that interest them. - Fun Fact:
I love animals and spend my free time volunteering at a dog shelter.
