Alina I graduated from the Jagiellonian University with a MA in Mathematics and a BA in English Philology. Having completed the International House Teacher Training Course, I started my teaching career at International House Kraków. I took a break from teaching and worked in a brokerage house first, and then for the Oxford University Press distributor as a sales representative. It gave me experience of a different kind, but I missed teaching, so I eventually returned to education. While teaching English in a public school, I became interested in working with students with additional educational needs, which motivated me to start Postgraduate Studies in Teaching English for Students with Special Educational Needs at the Pedagogical University of Krakow. I have now been working at ³Ô¹Ï±¬ÁÏ for five years as a support teacher being a member of the ALN team. I help my students learn so that they can see that acquiring knowledge can be something pleasant and interesting, and not a tough process marked by difficulties. I love traveling and spend most of my free time in nature, walking, swimming or skiing. But out of “indoor activities", cooking is one of my favourites.
