September 2017- present
I´ve worked here for three years now and what initially attracted me to the school was the fact that they came across as very professional and supportive – a place where I could further improve my skills and I must say I have. At ECI you work with students aged 6 to 18 mainly (some adult classes as well) and the main focus is on Cambridge exams which is great work experience to add to your CV. However, if you´ve not taught Cambridge before, planning and structuring these lessons can be very time-consuming and requiring a lot of effort. As a result, you end up putting in a lot of extra hours. Nonetheless, once you dominate the skill, it gets a lot easier.
Teaching online is another thing we all had to get used to given the circumstances, but we managed to get it up and running and it works very smoothly indeed now.
