About Me
Hello. My name is Maryam Behboudi. I'm 37 years old and I've been teaching English for about 16 years. I was so young when I first experienced teaching that I don't remember it very well. But I'll never forget the experience of my first group class. My school's English teacher felt ill, and I was suddenly chosen as a substitute teacher. It was really hard and scary for a teacher who had never done something like that before. From that moment, I realized that the only way to reach the heart of any student, or any human being for that matter, is through friendship and kindness. From then on, I've always tried to create a friendly atmosphere in my classroom so that I can understand and be understood. For me, teaching isn't just a job; it's a passion. And without that passion, I would never have been able to continue until now.
Teaching Method
I try not to be dependent on one specific method or approach. Having completed most TTC courses within the country and taught at various language education brands and international schools, I know that no single method works for everyone. Methods that engage all of the students' abilities and allow them to express themselves and their desires through speaking and writing are definitely winners. I've taught numerous textbooks, both online and in-person. For years, I've taught all grade levels at international schools. Additionally, I've specialized in teaching children aged 3-7. Currently, I'm also in the process of completing my CELTA certification.
