Michail S - Tutor in Little Falls

Hi! My name is Michail Schmulian. You can just call me Michail. I have a B.Sc degree in Zoology and Ecology that I obtained in 2011. After that I worked in IT as a Junior Linux/Systems Administrator. In this time I also did a certificate in Information Systems Engineering. After leaving my job in IT in 2015, I became an English as a Second Language teacher in Asia. Four months in China, and about Three and a half years in South Korea. I have experience teaching English as a Second Language to students of different levels, ranging from absolute beginner to adults, and ages ranging from 3/4 years old to adults. I like to have fun with my students and create a relaxed environment where we can talk about anything. My hobbies include singing, improvisation, performing on stage, reading, gaming, etc.
