About Prin, the course instructor (You can follow my blog, podcasts and videos on my website (EdSniff) for more English knowledge, especially in writing.)

I’m an English teacher with years of experience in teaching live and online classes, and designing courses. I have taught learners of various ages, skill levels and nationalities in many topics (from general English to test preparation); and lectured at universities, schools and other organizations.

I graduated with an MA in TESOL (Teaching of English to Speakers of Other Languages) with Merit from UCL (University College London) Institute of Education. I also hold a CELTA (Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) from Cambridge English.

I have taken many standardized tests including:

Cambridge English: Proficiency (CPE) – Grade A (equivalent to CEFR level C2)
TOEFL iBT – 118/120 (Listening: 30/30, Reading: 30/30, Writing: 30/30)
IELTS – 8.5/9.0 (Listening: 9.0/9.0, Reading: 9.0/9.0)
TOEIC – 990/990 (Listening: 495/495, Reading: 495/495)

My other English-related experiences include creating blog posts, podcasts and videos; writing a book; working as an English specialist in the editorial team of an academic journal; writing for a magazine; hosting radio shows; appearing on a TV program; working as a transcriber and translator; and working as a competition judge.
