B.A- English Literature from Bar Ilan University currently an M.A student of comparative literature with an emphasis on East Asian studies. Have been teaching English since my 2nd year in college, with a break of 1 year in favor of a more corporate job , as a part of an inner search for the most suitable job . This year I came back to teaching because i felt it is my destiny in one way or another , together with writing. teaching a language is empowering people, giving them a window to understand souls in a different culture than your own.I am a student of many languages as well i am fluent at 3 - English, Hebrew and Russian and intermediate at Spanish. Currently getting over the basics of German and beginning to acquire Chinese for the sake of my Masters which will probably deal with a Chinese novel.
