Farida
English Lessons with Farida (TEFL.org certified, open & flexible approach)
Hi! My name is Farida. I am an English teacher. I have been working as an English teacher for 3 years. I am TEFL certified (TEFL.org, 120 hour teaching certificate). I hold a degree in Politics & Sociology from the University of Edinburgh. I worked as pupil support staff in primary and secondary schools in the UK, providing additional educational support to students with learning disabilities. I am passionate about education and providing my students with the best quality education I can offer. I can speak Arabic and B2 level Spanish. I have taught students of all different ages and backgrounds, online and in-person, with different reasons and purposes for learning English. From IELTS exams for visa applications to learning a language to adjust living in a new country, I always try to focus on individual goals and needs as much as possible rather than a "one-size-fits-all" approach. For example, if your goal is to simply practice conversational English and become a more confident speaker, then we can focus on that! If your goal is to take an English exam such as the IELTS then that can be our main focus. Please send a message to let me know what it is you are looking for and how I am able to help you reach your goals. I hope to hear from you soon. Thank you!
