Hello and thank you for looking through my profile.
About me.I am Veronika - a near-native English speaker and an English teacher with 8 years of experience teaching young learners and adults online and face-to-face.
I am also a certified IELTS instructor and I have a CELTA (Cambridge English Language Teacher for Adults) qualification. My personal IELTS Academic Band score is 8.
My teaching journey started back in 2014 when I graduated from the College of the Albemarle in North Carolina, USA and came back to my country to become a teacher. Since then I have taken various courses for teachers to master my skills and increase the level of proficiency.
I also designed and ran several English courses of my own, including the one based entirely on
Authentic materials.
