Language teaching experience (including volunteering):
- volunteer-mentor to international students (from across Europe) A. C. Patria, Lithuania
- primary school visiting-teacher at several schools in Bandung city, Indonesia ( )
- music teacher/event coordinator at Lithuanian school Pasagele Ltd (since January, 2026)
I use a simple, repeatable session structure with a creative twist, (visual or audible to make things easier to remember) and lightweight, editable materials.
For example, my session structure/format is mostly like this:
• How are you - greeting + brief rapport + quick check-up on goals and homework.
• What we will do today - setting objectives for the session (1–2)
• Warming up - a short review to activate prior knowledge and spot gaps.
• Get things done - focused mini-lesson (includes examples; my models, support).
• Brainstorming and communication - guided practice (scaffolded problems, prompts with feedback).
• It is time for you to shine - independent practice/application (student works solo, I observe and intervene as minimal as possible).
• Wrap-up - we summarize key takeaways, confirm understanding with one exit question.
• Before you go - assigning next steps, goals and targets.
Content formats that I use:
• Slide-style visuals (PowerPoint/Canva): images + minimal text to spark discussion
• Editable documents and templates (Word, Excel) quick lesson plans, checklists.
• Conversation/photo prompts and real-world tasks.
• Focussing on mini-lessons, and homework sets created to address weaknesses, spot knowledge gaps.
• Creative conversations part is based on viewing image prompts, on-spot role-plays, (optional). We would also target grammar and vocabulary, and focus on building those pronunciation skills.
