My primary responsibility is teaching Business English classes using the latest in educational technology, like Google tools and SMART board tech. By troubleshooting real-live problems that my students are experiencing, we improve communication issues that they experience in their daily lives. Most classes are taught in-person, on-location at top tech campuses in Silicon Valley. But some lessons are also given 1:1 or in small groups online. These uniquely designed, specialized lessons, help my students lead more successful professional and personal lives.Many of my classes go beyond the grammar. These guided, soft-skills sessions are intended to help bridge cultural gaps and reduce strong speaking accents.I'm also responsible for assessing the English level of EPAM employees. I update and maintain company-wide databases and coordinate with international staff around the world. each assessment is given using a carefully crafted combination of speaking, role-playing, and written activities.
