I have the ability to increase learners participation and motivation in learning through engaging lessons and activities. I have teaching experience and my teaching powers rely in patience, understanding, adaptability, and fitting lessons for students needs. One of the aspects I enjoy most about teaching English as a Foreign Language is fostering a supportive and inclusive classroom environment. I have the ability to create a space where students feel comfortable expressing themselves and taking risks in their language learning journey. I always aim to make English relevant and relatable to my students lives.
