-CELTA holder teacher with almost 20 years of teaching experience- I am Heeva and I`m 37 and married. I am a proud mom of a Great Dane dog called Shadow. I have got itchy feet and I am up for exploring new places. Photography has always been a personal way of expressing myself and how I see the world around me and I love to share it with people. I am a bookworm and read almost any kind of books. My best friend is my morning coffee and my music playlist! movies, food and gardening are of my great interests as well. I have almost 20 years of English teaching experience which includes teaching elementary students and even training English teachers. I have started as a teacher then moved up the career ladder and became an education supervisor. Later on, I continued as an educational manager of "Safir Language Academy" with more than 36 branches all around my country. I am patient and I think progress is never possible without practice and persistence. I am outspoken and friendly so I can build a fine bond with my students. I take teaching very seriously and my students progress and satisfaction is my greatest sense of achievement. I mostly apply communicative language teaching methods and am personally interested in conversational skills. The teaching methodology I pick is based on what each student needs and looks for during a course of study.

Really starting to feel the rewards of reading Persian script. Heeva continues to challenge me and even goes to the effort to explain the etymological root of words to help me learn. All-the-while, she doesn't let me go down lexical rabbit holes that confuse me!
