Non-native English teacher with more than 3 years teaching English worldwide.

I am Gen, 34 years old and I am a TESOL/TEFL-certified educator with a bachelor's degree in Economics and advanced English proficiency, confirmed by my EF SET C2 certificate. Originally from Turkmenistan, I pursued higher education in Russia and later studied for two years at Ferguson College in India, where the entire curriculum was delivered in English. It was during that time that I began tutoring - both online and offline - helping students improve their language skills. That immersive experience taught me how quickly learners can gain fluency when they communicate exclusively in English. Inspired by that, I now strive to create a similar environment for my own students through the Direct Method, encouraging real communication and building the need to use English from day one. In addition to teaching, I’ve worked at the prestigious Radisson Blu Resort in the UAE. That experience further developed my interpersonal skills and showed me the importance of empathy, clear communication, and cultural sensitivity
