Meet Marsha "Yasmine"

While most of the kids in my first grade class were out playing in the sand box and the swing sets, I was playing "teacher" to all my best friends—making them take imaginary tests that I had prepared. I often wonder how I was able to keep any friends at all during that time. (Taking imaginary tests on the lunch breaks are not very popular with school kids, right?)

​

It wasn’t until after travelling the world that I finally plunged into the pool of education—starting with—American accent training. From there, I moved into conversational English and the different levels of English language learning programs. Eventually, I began teaching TOEFL and IELTS; focusing on all four language skills—listening, speaking, reading and writing. However, some of the most fun I had abroad was while I was teaching nearly two years of Aviation English (ICAO) to military pilots from around the world; an amazing experience indeed.

​

I have taught in college, university, grade school, high school, royal palaces and online. I have held the positions of Head of English Department, Communication Lab In-Charge and Assistant Director of Studies. I hold a CELTA (Certificate of English Language Training for Adults) from University of Cambridge, London; and I have designed a fully functional communication lab, along with, several training courses for various companies and educational institutions. I have also published several articles about teacher training and class managment, plus taught inspiring teachers on several occasions.

​

Personally, I feel most fulfilled in life whenever I am in class with a student. Whether it is a class of 40 eager learners or just one--I am a fish in water. So the question is: Do I love teaching? Well, yes I do!

The first time I heard about me taking the IELTS was the worst day of my life! I was very anxious about it,maybe because my future relies on it , but when I came to your class, day by day I've learned a lot from you. You fed me with all the techniques that I needed. You simplified everything ,which really made me so confident with my self. I felt your eagerness in teaching so that your students will learn and aim for the red colors! For a month I gained a lot, and now I'm just so excited to take the exam. You are a good teacher and your passion in teaching is overflowing :-) I therefore conclude,that you are a serious teacher at first sight but definitely the best among the best...:-)
