Before that, I worked in tourism in Estonia and abroad as well in a number of schools and language companies. When I started working for Multilingua, I realised how fun and innovative a language school can be.<\/p>\n<p>I teach Estonian to Russian-speaking and English-speaking groups. I believe it is important for learning and teaching alike to be enjoyable. When I teach, I take the student and their needs into account in the first place and always strive to inspire and motivate as well as remain inspired.<\/p>\n<p>Teaching Estonian as a foreign language at Multilingua, I experience what I value and like a lot: interacting with people from various cultural and ethnic backgrounds. It is extremely fascinating and stimulating!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">As an adult educator, I:<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-setsize=\"-1\" data-leveltext=\"-\" data-font=\"\" data-listid=\"25\" data-list-defn-props=\"{&quot;335552541&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:720,&quot;335559991&quot;:360,&quot;469769242&quot;:[8226],&quot;469777803&quot;:&quot;left&quot;,&quot;469777804&quot;:&quot;-&quot;,&quot;469777815&quot;:&quot;multilevel&quot;}\" data-aria-posinset=\"1\" data-aria-level=\"1\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">identify\u00a0the needs and expectations of the study group; prepare and adapt learning materials based on the curriculum\/training programme;\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-setsize=\"-1\" data-leveltext=\"-\" data-font=\"\" data-listid=\"25\" data-list-defn-props=\"{&quot;335552541&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:720,&quot;335559991&quot;:360,&quot;469769242&quot;:[8226],&quot;469777803&quot;:&quot;left&quot;,&quot;469777804&quot;:&quot;-&quot;,&quot;469777815&quot;:&quot;multilevel&quot;}\" data-aria-posinset=\"2\" data-aria-level=\"1\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">create a physical, mental, and social environment conducive to language learning;\u00a0base my approach on the learners\u2019 needs and adapt learning stages or working methods as required;<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-setsize=\"-1\" data-leveltext=\"-\" data-font=\"\" data-listid=\"6\" data-list-defn-props=\"{&quot;335552541&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:720,&quot;335559991&quot;:360,&quot;469769242&quot;:[8226],&quot;469777803&quot;:&quot;left&quot;,&quot;469777804&quot;:&quot;-&quot;,&quot;469777815&quot;:&quot;multilevel&quot;}\" data-aria-posinset=\"11\" data-aria-level=\"1\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">analyse the learning process, assess learners\u2019 learning outcomes, and\u00a0inform both the learner and the contact person at Multilingua about the results of the language learning;<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-setsize=\"-1\" data-leveltext=\"-\" data-font=\"\" data-listid=\"25\" data-list-defn-props=\"{&quot;335552541&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:720,&quot;335559991&quot;:360,&quot;469769242&quot;:[8226],&quot;469777803&quot;:&quot;left&quot;,&quot;469777804&quot;:&quot;-&quot;,&quot;469777815&quot;:&quot;multilevel&quot;}\" data-aria-posinset=\"3\" data-aria-level=\"1\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">engage in continuous professional development; update training content and teaching methods,\u00a0revising\u00a0and modernizing them as needed;<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-setsize=\"-1\" data-leveltext=\"-\" data-font=\"\" data-listid=\"25\" data-list-defn-props=\"{&quot;335552541&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:720,&quot;335559991&quot;:360,&quot;469769242&quot;:[8226],&quot;469777803&quot;:&quot;left&quot;,&quot;469777804&quot;:&quot;-&quot;,&quot;469777815&quot;:&quot;multilevel&quot;}\" data-aria-posinset=\"4\" data-aria-level=\"1\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">use relevant information and communication technology (ICT) tools (e.g., interactive smartboards, online platforms such as Zoom and\/or Teams, ML information system, cloud services such as Google Drive and\/or OneDrive, e-learning platforms, etc.) in the preparation, delivery, and evaluation of the teaching and learning process, as well as for supporting my own professional development;\u00a0am able to create, use, and share web-based learning materials.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Operating various languages and cultures in an international environment has always played an important role in my life.
