Hello. My name is Rafael. I've been teaching English for 11 years. For 9 years I've been teaching English online. For seven years I lived in the UK with my family. While I was there I took acting lessons at Derby Academy of Acting and actually took part in several student films. At the moment I am learning backend programming using Kotlin and SpringBoot. I have many hobbies and interests like horseback riding, tennis, archery, martial arts, golf, wakeboarding, snowboarding, and others.Me as a Teacher
My students say that I am patient, friendly and encouraging. I pay attention to pronunciation and grammar. My lessons & teaching style
I use a communicative approach. I encourage my students to speak about topics that they are interested in. I try to create a casual atmosphere during my lessons to help my students to speak with ease.5.0

Я нашла своего учителя, рекомендую! Уроки проходят интересно, много говорю я, Рафаэль направляет и удерживает внимание на аспектах требующих улучшения. Не пропал ни один урок, все четко и точно. По темам выбираю я, по моим запросам. Мне ни разу не захотелось пропустить занятие, даже когда я уставшая после работы, наоборот занятия переключают и мотивируют заниматься английским. Пробуйте и идите к своей цели. Желаю всем успехов!
