Interest topicHistorySports & FitnessTravel
I am an avid outdoorsman, with a positive outlook on life. I enjoy camping, hiking, rugby and any water related activities. I enjoy travelling and travel as much as possible. I have traveled to various countries in Africa, several in Europe and various ones in Asia.
Me as a Teacher
I was motivated to become an English teacher, so that I can assist in exposing students to the lingua franca of the world, that being English. Some estimates say that 80% of English speakers of the world are non native speakers. I obtained my TESOL certificate mid 2017 and decided to head to the east. I have taught kids and adults in rural Asian areas and have decided to bring my teaching expertise and experience online. I have years of online teaching experience.
My lessons & teaching style
The topics that are covered are age dependent. They can range from greetings, asking&answering personal questions, using modal verbs for rules, identifying various classroom stationary, favourite holiday trip, comparing things (superlative adjectives) etc. Lessons are adapted to age and pace. Worksheets, homework sheets, flashcards are among some of the tools used during lessons.

In just one month of lessons with Mikhail, I've made remarkable progress in constructing sentences and engaging in basic conversations. Without a doubt, I highly recommend Mikhail as a teacher!
