Energetic ESL Instructor experienced in teaching children from diverse range of cultures and ethnic backgrounds. Over five years of classroom experience at kindergarten, elementary and middle school levels. Excellent record of achieving reading, writing and speaking functions in student performance within set goal periods. I'm positive and patient with students, consistently dedicating extra time for one-on-one instruction to teach difficult lessons. I worked as a teacher in Russia, Turkey and Libya. I have completed the TEFL Academy Teaching English course and all my assignments and tests were passed with distinction. I also obtained a CELTA Certification. As a teacher I collect and combine educational information from various sources and adapt the educational approach to each student individually. I use Interactive games, flash cards, reading comprehension, music, and audio/visual methods in class to improve pronunciation, vocabulary and general conversational English. Learning is based on a communicative method. I have experience in beginner, elementary, per-intermediate levels. I am a very dependable and responsible individual who is self-motivated and has a passion for helping others. I am quickly adaptable to different cultures and their way of life. I enjoy the challenge and subsequent satisfaction of mastering new tasks and am not intimidated by the prospects of unfamiliar territory. I am not afraid to take advice or learn from others and to offer assistance wherever possible. Excellent interpersonal skills, enthusiastic, energetic, outgoing, confident, ambitious, very loyal and trustworthy. I am also a punctual, independent, organized and a very hard worker.
