With extensive experience teaching a wide range of subjects, I have developed interdisciplinary methods that make learning both enjoyable and relevant. By integrating geospatial sciences with English language instruction, I create lessons that demonstrate the real-world applications of what students are learning. My aim is to ignite curiosity and passion for the subject while equipping students with the skills to excel academically and beyond. Over the years, I have taught students from diverse age groups, from primary school to university, and from various cultural backgrounds and nationalities. This breadth of experience has allowed me to tailor my teaching approach to meet individual learning needs, ensuring that every student, regardless of their background, can succeed. Whether we are tackling complex geographical concepts or refining language skills, my goal is to make learning engaging and empowering for each student. - PhD in Earth Sciences, specializing in Cartography (Toponymy) and onomastics - Master's in Linguistics and Advanced English Studies, with a specialization in Education - Training in Technical Translation - Bachelor's in English Studies, specializing in Sociolinguistics - Bachelor's in Cartography, Geology, and Geoinformatics
