Qualified and experienced English teacher gives lessons in Brussels during the week or at the weekend. My lessons are communication centred, creative and effective.I have been working as an English teacher for 8 years. I spent the last two summers in England teaching at summer schools and I have worked for the International House, the British Council and a private college.I have taught both business and general English to students of beginner to advanced levels since I started teaching in 2013. I have worked with students coming from a wide range of different countries. I have taught exam preparation courses that helped students get ready for sitting tests such as IELTS, FCE, CAE and TOEFL. I also have experience in teaching groups of juniors and teens. I spent 6 weeks teaching mostly teenagers from Italy, Spain, France, Japan, China, Israel and Latvia in a summer camp at Bath Spa University in 2017 and 2018.
