Well, I can't believe today is my 5 year anniversary as a self employed teacher.. When I began back in February 2018, things were pretty different in the world, I had just been made redundant from a big school in Edinburgh and with 2 young kids and a family to support, it was a risk to go on my own. But with 14 years teaching in language schools behind me, I had the experience and knowledge to give it a try, and I'm glad I did..
It's been an up and down 5 years, with some lovely students and I've met and taught some genuinely interesting people along the way. Covid was a big challenge for me, and I had to change to online teaching for around 2 years, which has helped me to adapt and teach students from all over the world, as well as the local Edinburgh population.
I'd love to keep writing, but I have a lesson to teach!!
SO the final thing I want to say is THANK YOU, particularly to my family who have been a brilliant support for me, and also all the amazing students I've taught and am still teaching over the last half a decade :)
