THE MOST INTERESTING COURSES I HAVE ATTENDED

2017 – 1 week training course at Academy of Postgraduate Education (full-time attendance).

The American E-Teacher English Program, funded by the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, improves English-language skills acquisition by teachers around the world and fosters cultural understanding between American citizens and those of other countries. 

The program provided me with the most current, evidence-based approaches in the discipline of teaching English to speakers of other languages (TESOL) to the non-native English-speaking teacher community through direct access to U.S. higher education institutions and education experts.

MY INTERESTS

I’m interested in the use of modern teaching techniques and information technologies. That’s why I created this blog and try to use it in my teaching practice. As a result of my work in this field I was the first in Multi-media Lesson Contest which took place in Pruzhany district in 2016. 

I love English, my work and my pupils. I'm eager to learn new approaches  to teaching English.
