Кристофер родился и жил в Манчестере, Великобритания. Он всегда интересовался путешествиями, и тем, как живут другие культуры и люди различных национальностей, поэтому приехал в Санкт-Петербург учить русский язык и преподавать английский. Специально для этого он окончил курсы преподавания английского языка как иностранного.
На занятиях Кристофера можно узнать много интересных фактов из жизни англоговорящих людей, а также узнать, как люди разговаривают в реальной жизни, а не только то, чему учат в школе и университете.
Вероника отправилась в свое первое заграничное путешествие в 2016 году, и с тех постоянно поддерживает языковую практику с носителями языка. Она считает, чтобы заговорить на английско, внутри должен гореть огонек интереса и мечты: общаться с англоговорящими друзьями, прочитать любимую книгу в оригинале или создать международные рабочие связи.
За это время она много путешествовала по Европе, месяц шла по международному пути Сантьяго в Испании, общаясь с людьми из десятков стран, была волонтером преподавателем английского языка для детей на Бали.
“Для меня преподавание - это сочетание системы и творчества, знаний и вечного поиска нового.”
Уроки Вероники - это всегда маленький праздник, который при этом задействует все каналы восприятия для изучения английского.
