Biografía:

Hi there! I'm Noemi. I’ve been teaching adults for many years, starting with Armenian for English speakers before becoming a TEFL-certified English teacher. I love languages and want you to enjoy speaking English. My lessons are personalized, conversation-focused, and designed to build your comprehension, vocabulary, fluency and pronunciation. Through engaging topics and plenty of speaking practice, I’ll help you express yourself freely and naturally in any situation.

Mi metodología de enseñanza:

Focus on real conversations: We’ll cover a variety of interesting topics that matter to you.
Personalized materials: Tailored to your learning style, including reading exercises, audio clips, and interactive discussions.
Pronunciation practice: Targeted exercises to help you sound more natural and confident.
Regular feedback: I’ll provide ongoing feedback to track your progress and help you improve.
Interactive lessons: Lessons are customized to meet your learning preferences and language goals.

Mi experiencia docente:

I’m a native speaker of both English and Armenian, having grown up in the U.S., Armenia, and Canada. I hold a BA in English and Communications and have been teaching languages to adults for almost 11 years. My teaching journey started with Armenian for English speakers, then I became a TEFL-certified English teacher. I’ve worked with adult learners from all over the world, helping them build confidence and fluency. I’ve also taught at summer camps, collaborated as a translator for online language schools, and worked as a writer, editor, and proofreader. My deep appreciation for language fuels my teaching—I believe it’s our most powerful tool for communication, connection, and understanding.

Mi experiencia fuera de la enseñanza:

Outside of teaching languages, I’m a certified self-development and relationship coach, and I love writing about growth and connection. I also have a background in theater—I’ve worked as an actor, director, and writer. After university, I co-founded and ran an English-language theater group with friends and have collaborated on short films and creative projects for several years. Travel is another passion of mine. I love exploring the diverse cultures and beautiful places our planet has to offer. Each place I visit helps me understand the world—and myself—a little bit better, and I bring those insights back into my teaching. So, if you enjoy travel, the arts, psychology, or personal development, we’re going to have a lot to talk about!

3 hechos únicos sobre mi:

I am a third-culture kid - I grew up in different countries around the world, so 'home' is more of a feeling than a place for me.
I love languages and travel - I love exploring different cultures and seeing both what makes them unique and what connects us all.
I'm a writer - I love to write poems, plays and articles, and my favorite writer is Shakespeare.
