Native English speaker, Level 5 TEFL, studied Chinese and Spanish at university, studied English language at college

Having had a keen interest in languages and language learning for my whole life, I opted for a language course for my degree, during which I had to study abroad for one year, living in both China and Spain to immerse myself in the culture and language of those countries.
In my second year, I did a 6 week taster TEFL course, in which we did in-depth and extensive English grammar and syntax lessons and practised running our own lessons. I decided to pursue this and complete a level 5 TEFL course.

Through completion of my degree and TEFL certification, I am very familiar and comfortable with English grammar rules and syntax. Furthermore, by applying what I have learned through my own foreign language studies, I am aware of the best ways to maximise language retention and the best methods of revision.
