My name is Shirin. Learning English has always been a great interest of mine, and that is the reason that I studied English at University. I believe that learning English is important for traveling, business, education, and many other purposes.
Aside from language learning, I have several other interests. I am passionate about rock music, classical movies, reading novels, and photography. I pursued photography professionally a few years ago, but I now prefer to focus on my main profession of teaching English.
To talk about my English background, I started learning English at the age of 12, encouraged by my father, who found it to be very useful. After completing high school, I decided to pursue English literature as my major since I was passionate about poetry, prose, and drama, especially the works of Shakespeare and Samuel Beckett. After earning my bachelor's degree, I shifted my focus to teaching English as a foreign language and obtained a master's degree in the same field. I have been teaching English for seven years now, and my methodology involves using a variety of sourcebooks, movies, songs, and writing sessions. During our sessions, we will read books, watch movies, listen to music, and discuss a wide range of interesting topics.
