Experience

Universities and language schools all over Europe

After leaving university I taught English as a foreign language before taking up a career in film and television subtitling. On my return to English language teaching I decided to specialise in English for academic purposes (EAP). In the last few years I have taught EFL and EAP in Britain, Poland, Ukraine and Belarus.
