Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences Since I previously worked as an English teacher in China, I also have my own experience. What is important to me as a teacher?

Elizaveta Pachina TEFL Information Alumni Experiences Teaching Ideas When a child is born, parents are their first teachers and the people responsible for educating their children in the first few years of their lives.

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences What is the role of the teacher in English learning? Although ‘teacher-centered education’ was taught in the past, ‘student-centered education’ is more emphasized in the modern era.
