I believe  that teaching and learning works best in friendly and relaxed environment.

I believe that CAN DO overweighs KNOW HOW.

I believe that vocabulary and grammar are interconnected and the former dominates in communication.

I believe that a meaningful message gives more than a drill.

I believe that group work is essential.

I believe that the teacher should encourage the pupils to take risks and develop motivation; however, the pupils need to take responsibility for their own progress.

I believe that using of language outside of the classroom (reading, listening, speaking, etc) leads to progress.

I believe that the art of teaching is a mixture of negotiation of meaning  in the classroom, professional training and entertainment. I hope I can keep the three ingredients in the air without dropping any of them.
