Aida, англоязычный репетитор школы Skyeng

I’m Aida (like the opera) and I am from London, UK. I am a CELTA and DELTA qualified teacher, with a Bachelors in Teaching English and French as Foreign Languages. I am a third-generation teacher, following in the footsteps of my parents and grandparents who have inspired and motivated me to choose this rewarding path from a very young age. As a teacher, I feel proud to see my beginner students grow into proficient language users, I enjoy the “aha! ” moment in every lesson when the unknown becomes clear, and I absolutely love the fact that it is not the books, but my students who are the most powerful and effective teaching resource! I’ve been teaching English for over 17 years. I spent 7 years teaching abroad, but have been permanently based here in London for the past 10 years. As a language teacher, I teach all CEFR proficiency levels from beginners to high advanced learners, English for Academic Purposes, a range of exam classes, including First, Advanced and Proficiency, with a particular interest in IELTS. I write my own teaching materials, some of which are featured in ELT publications and international conferences. I am also a teacher trainer which means I work with other teachers of English from all over the world and help them improve their knowledge of methodology and teaching practice. My lessons evolve in real-time, with my learners’ needs being the guiding factor. I like experimenting, differentiating, and pushing my students to the edge of their abilities. I believe in combining different teaching approaches and I never follow the “one size fits all” principle.

I believe in active pastimes and my way of winding down is in varying activities rather than completely switching off. I love doing sports, composing music and doing craft-work. I’m passionate about modern and classical theatre, healthy lifestyle and exploring the world. If you would like to learn in a way which empowers you, uses your full potential and helps you exceed your expectations- I’ll see you in my classroom.
