Originally certified to interpret and translate English by VOLODYMYR VYNNYCHENKO CENTRAL UKRAINIAN STATE PEDAGOGICAL UNIVERSITY, I later discovered my true calling as an English language teacher while living in Korostyshiv, Zhytomyr Region, Ukraine. My BAs and MAs degrees from Volodymyr Vynnychenko Central Ukrainian State Pedagogical University are in English Philology and Translation Studies. I began teaching English in 2005, first as a teacher in the classroom of Korostyshiv Teachers’ Training College and later as a private instructor and tutor. I have been a TAG (Teaching Activity Group) facilitator from the British Council SWITLO project since January 31st, 2024. My teaching experience broadened when I continued working in college, and subsequently I moved from the EFL classroom to the ESL classroom. As a private tutor and instructor, I joined the teaching staff and earned my TKT certificate. The position at college afforded many opportunities.
