Alexey K.
I have about 5 years of experience as an ESL teacher and about a year as a French second language teacher, 3 years of experience as a translator and 7 years of experience as a bilingual customer services representative in call-centers (English and French). I worked for 2 years as an administrative assistant and for 4 years as an amateur programmer. I have taught English mostly for adults at the University level. I taught English at the Mari State University, Yoshkar-Ola, Russia and also at Russian State Social University, Moscow, Russia. I taught English and French at the English Language Institute, Moscow, Russia. I taught English, French, Maths and Sciences at the Oxford Learning Center, Calgary, AB, Canada. Right now I teach French online.
I like Grammar-Translation Teaching Methodology, which means that I teach grammar rules and vocabulary through translation. I also use Communicative Language Teaching, which means that I encourage students to speak, listen, read and write through interactive activities. Right now I teach online. I have a good quality headset with a good side talk cancellation microphone. My internet is fast. I have a possibility to hook up my computer to the modem with an ethernet cable. I have a Battery Backup Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) System which gives about 40 minutes of autonomy to finalize a lesson. I have dry erase whiteboard markers with a white board and some chalk with a blackboard. I enjoy what I do right now.
