Hi,
My name is Karina. I am a very experienced English teacher. I was born in a multinational region of Russia in an european cultures-focused family. So I am a person who is highly interested in foreign languages,especially in teacning English,which is my favorate one.
I am like a native,I have been speaking English since my childhood and parallelly studying such foreign languages as German,French,Italian,Spanish and some others too. It was my hobby! As a result, I am trilingual. I speak perfectly English,Russian and Georgian.
So I have always dreamed of working abroad to test my oppotunities and recieve benefit from it. I am happy to have discovered Europe and Georgia ( since living there for about 20 years ) to have a really fine practice of teaching there through the multiple trainings for new teaching technologies and FCE, I have also practiced tourism,conducting private tours using my languages experience.
During my multiple practice of a foreign language teacher,which profession I mastered in a corresponding institution of my native city, I taught English,German and other languages individually,in groups and even online for students of all levels and any age,as a state and private teacher and even did a lot of translations in varied spheres. Besides,I practiced Business English to executives and adults.
As for my main feature,I enjoy improving myself and I always care about my professional growth. On getting a TESOL Certificate through Uni-Prep, now again I hope I will get the chance to go to some other country to teach ESL students. Reviewing all the materials of the TESOL cource enriched my personal proficiency level,without saying, and ensured me for my better teaching in the ESL classroom.
So,I am waiting for your call! Thank you for visiting me!
