Martina Sedlakova - Language Specialist

ABOUT ME: First and foremost, I see myself as a positive person who has an enthusiastic outlook on life, with a great sense of humor, and a strong passion and interest in others. I consider myself to be respectful, attentive, compassionate, humble, and supportive. ME AS A TEACHER: As a teacher, I try to be patient while also encouraging my students so that they feel like they are in a comfortable learning environment. I have a strong desire for teaching, and have a great sense of gratification from seeing my students develop and grow. And as my students learn, their feedback helps me improve as a teacher. If I can have a positive impact on their future, I feel that I am fulfilling my job. MY LESSONS & TEACHING STYLE: My core teaching method is to start by having a simple conversation with the student, and adapting to each individual’s most effective learning style. My flexibility as a teacher ensures that the student is always getting a lesson that is tuned to their needs, while having fun at the same time. In addition to using official textbooks, I also use my own teaching material to add variety, and personalize each lesson. I encourage each to student to be as interactive as possible, by participating in conversation with me throughout the lessons.
