Zayana Wepener-Kegyarikova

Director of Studies•Manager

I have worked closely with Zayana for more than two years and have found her to be consistently reliable, conscientious and dedicated to the highest standards of teaching. She is very much respected by her students and colleagues, regularly participates in professional development and has contributed greatly to a positive working environment in the school. I have no hesitation in recommending her, and will be happy to answer any further questions.

Senior English Language Teacher•Colleague

Zayana is one of the most effective teachers I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Her awareness of students' needs, learner styles, cultural factors and knowledge of methodology allows her to be extremely flexible. She can work with one-to-one VIPs, a group of managers, general English groups and IELTS preparation groups with equal success. For this reason she is often chosen to manage mixed ability groups, challenging personalities and substitute for other teachers at the last minute. She can also carry out large amounts of administration to extremely tight deadlines effectively and is generally a very supportive member of the team. She is quite simply a very reliable and genuine person, with excellent pedagogical, administration, interpersonal and time management skills.
