Bio
Ieva Jankeviciene
Krisia er en uvurderlig kilde til viden og idéer. Hun er i stand til at tackle problemer hurtigt og effektivt og er i stand til at være både fokuseret og afslappet, afhængigt af situationen. Hendes tanker er lette at forstå, da hun forklarer dem på en enkel måde. Hun tager sig af opgaver energisk og kreativt, og leverer dem til tiden. Krisia er en pålidelig kollega, der er ivrig efter at dele sin viden og altid er klar til at hjælpe. Jeg er glad for at kende hende og arbejde sammen med hende i vores team. Jeg vil stærkt anbefale hende, da hun er en sej kvinde og en ekspert inden for sit felt.

Krisia has developed her own framework of teaching English in a versatile, fun, and highly effective way. What's even more significant is her way to empower people and especially women learning English. She takes away fear, pushes you a little bit out of your comfort zone, and provides excellent guidance along the way. You are supported along the way. I can highly recommend getting private lessons from her or buying her online course to self-study your English. She is a gem! And so will be your English if you work with her!

I teach English to agricultural students. My background studying and working in agriculture, combined with my ESL teacher training, puts me in a unique position to do this job. The focus is on improving communication skills for my students as they prepare to enter fields (literally and figuratively!) where they need to use English to communicate with some of their colleagues and business contacts.

Taught English to adults in a boutique intensive immersion course. Students attended for 5 days from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. in groups of two to eight people, but on average four to six. Teaching was catered to their needs and level. Only English was spoken in the classroom, and teaching was conversation-based, with supplementary assistance with reading and writing. Grammar, vocabulary, style, and expressions were taught in context as needed by the group. Clients included a large proportion of businesspeople seeking to improve their English for business communication, professionals preparing for presentations in English, people with little or no experience speaking English preparing for trips abroad, and many others looking to improve their English for various reasons. Teaching style was tailored to the group and the individual needs, and very responsive. Levels ranged from absolute beginner to very advanced (for example a researcher preparing to present her ophthalmology findings in English at a medical convention). Promoted to Advisor Teacher April 2008 In addition to teaching as above, responsible for raising teaching standards and client satisfaction throughout the course, observing teachers and offering feedback, being observed by other teachers in need of improvement, troubleshooting problems throughout the process, training new teachers, and handling “VIP” clients, including groups of upper management from large multinational companies, politicians and high-profile entertainers.
