Years of teaching experience: USA – 6 years, Ukraine – 9 years College of study: State University of Zaporojie, Ukraine Hobbies/interests outside of school: cooking, spending time with family Educational philosophy: I believe that a well educated society today is great for the future, not just for one country, but it will make a difference in whole world. Aspects students will learn this year: *develop grammar skills students will learn nouns, adjectives, verbs, prepositions, conjunctions, punctuation. *develop writing skills students will write dictations, essays, their own reflection about read stories or to the movies. *develop reading skills and comprehension students will read different stories of famous Russian writers, will do different kinds of exercises to help them understand the content, retell the stories *develop students vocabulary, kids will have every Friday speech development class (oral or writing) will work with different kinds of dictionaries ( synonyms and antonyms, idioms, etc.) Unique and interesting points about the class: Languages are increasingly important in many professions, it becomes even more important for students today to have the knowledge and skills necessary in more that one language. I think students realize that to succeed in life, they need to acquire tools they can learn now. What are your main goals and objectives as a teacher: My main goals are to teach students to learn and on ways they can use the knowledge they gain, to their advantage. I also want to show students how they can use the Russian language outside the school setting. Its really important that they know what to say in a given situation and how to respond appropriately, just like any language or culture. |
