I have worked as an EFL teacher for more than ten years in various educational establishments in the UK, Europe and Asia. I have also worked as a teacher trainer for teachers that are new to the profession, guiding them into the world of EFL teaching. I recently took some time off work to complete a Master's Degree in Social and Political Thought at Sussex University. It allowed me to develop my research and writing skills, and gave me a valuable insight into the connection between philosophy, literature, history and science.
