What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to leverage my teaching skills and engage with diverse learners, while also providing opportunities for professional growth.

I am an experienced English language instructor currently teaching at Berlitz Lisbon and Skills Gym. With a strong background in education, I have taught various age groups and levels, from young learners to healthcare professionals preparing for the Occupational English Test (OET). My passion for teaching and commitment to student success drives my approach in the classroom.

Previously, I served as a business and English teacher at the Egyptian American School, where I was also involved in the recruitment committee. My diverse experiences have equipped me with excellent communication and interpersonal skills, allowing me to connect with students from various cultural backgrounds. I am dedicated to fostering a positive learning environment and helping students achieve their language goals.
