"Good day, everyone!
My name is Andrey, and I'm from Riga, Latvia. I'm 28 years old and have had the privilege of living and studying in the UK for over five years. During this time, I've been actively engaged in academic life at the universities of Glasgow and Canterbury, while also gaining valuable experiences working in diverse settings, including restaurants, hotels, banks, and museums.
With a degree in International Relations and Teaching, I've been passionate about imparting knowledge and inspiring young minds. Since 2021, I've had the honor of teaching History to students between 12 and 16 years old. Beyond the classroom, I've dedicated the past three years to engaging kids and youngsters in history-related projects, both in-person and virtually, as well as through volunteering initiatives.
As a non-native speaker, I understand the challenges and rewards of language learning. I've been in your shoes and I can help you to improve!
EDUCATION:
MSc of Eastern European studies from the University of Glasgow - UK (2024)
BSc of Pedagogy from the University of Latvia - LV (2021)
BSc of International Relations from CCCU - UK (2019)
Therefore, I have a broad understanding of business English and a high level of academic English
WORK EXPERIENCE:
A history teacher for 12-16 years old (2 years) both online and offline.
A volunteer coordinator in international projects in Poland, Moldova, and Bulgaria. Responsible for European youth of 14-30 years old. Meaning I have diverse experience of working with children and managing adult groups.
My previous experience also involves jobs in hotels, banks, museums, restaurants, etc. so I can prepare you for real conversations on holidays or at work.
CURRENTLY:
Teaching children in a private school to get them ready for international iGCSE exams.
Lessons are conversation-based where students are the main talkers. Lessons come with topics and presentations (if necessary) always supported with quick visual materials when adequate. The main emphasis is on students to choose topics and themes to boost their engagement and interest. Students are the main drivers of progress and their decision-making is vital to me.
You choose, I guide.
