About the teacher: I am studying for a Master’s degree to become a language teacher. At other times, I work as a class teacher in a language immersion class at school, and in my free time, I spend time engaging in hobbies such as folk dancing and sports. In my work, I base my approach on the needs of the learners and wish to convey modern teaching methods so that they reach many students. The contemporary approach does not focus solely on the textbook-exercise book method, but increasingly gains popularity in active learning methods and gamified activities. Thus, learning can be fun and enjoyable. My methodology could suit the learners because I am personally interested in the effectiveness of my work. I want all my students to acquire the Estonian language according to their abilities. I am a supportive and positive teacher who enjoys working with beginners and teaching them based on English or some other languages.
