I'm from Torquay - pronounced tour-key- which is in the South West of England

I first came to Lviv in 2009 as a tourist. I really liked the vibe of the city, and came back again in 2010 for a longer stay. When I left my teaching post in Poland, and thought 'Where next?' Lviv was top of the list. 

I am indeed a REAL teacher of English as a Foreign Language. At the time of writing this, I have 12 years full-time teaching experience and have taught students from more than 30 different countries. I completed my CELTA in 2010 at International House, Wroclaw.

I'm from England, so it's no surprise I'm a football fan - I support Arsenal. I'm big on film, tv, and music. I recently decided to start learning how to DJ, so that's taking a lot of my free time at the moment. 

Too much! That's why I have a few extra KG than I should... I don't really have a favourite meal, but I LOVE all the different types of soup. We don't have a soup culture in the UK, but it's something I would take from Ukraine and add it to our society. 

I don't do FREE lessons, but, I do a FREE online English speaking club each week which you are more than FREE to join. You can find out more here.
