    Teaching Experience


    Introduction:
    I am teaching Bulgarian to foreigners and English and Russian to Bulgarians. I like the opportunity to meet new peoples, learn about their country and culture and share with them Bulgarian language and culture.

    I have also developed several Bulgarian language manuals for foreigners and resource books for teachers and I am planning to continue working in this field.

    My hobbies are traveling, photography, graphic design and reading.

    E xperience:

    I am currently teaching Bulgarian to foreigners. From 1999 through 2003 I worked as a Bulgarian language and culture facilitator for US Peace Corps Trainees and Volunteers in Bulgaria. Prior to this, I have worked for 8 years as a lecturer, teacher, and examiner at various universities and language centers in Sofia, Bulgaria where I taught English and Russian to students from beginner to advanced levels and administered exams in English for European Language certificates.
    I have an MA in Russian Studies from Sofia University and an MBA in Marketing from the City University of Seattle. I also hold a post-graduate certificate for Teaching English as a Foreign Language.
