How I Started Teaching
I started teaching when I was 23.
At the time, I hadn’t graduated from university yet. But I took a gap year because I was going through a rough time. So, even though I only had one more year left before graduation, I packed my bags and moved to Budapest to stay with my parents.
While I was there, my mom encouraged me to look for private tutoring opportunities. And I decided to do it because I wanted to be a teacher when I was younger since I loved kids.
So, I started to look for job openings. And that’s how I found Angloville.
Angloville is a language and cultural exchange program. It’s hosted in Europe between native English speakers and language learners. The learners are a mix of professionals or youths depending on the program you choose. During the program, there’s a mix of casual conversation, workshops, roleplays, games, and activities.
This program was perfect for me because I was already in Europe. So, I completed week-long programs in Poland, Malta…
