Current Native Instructor's Comments:
"As a native instructor, I’ve been working at Elin for almost four years. We have a relatively light workload for a private academy, and the curriculum is pre-made for us. However, we have the flexibility to adapt our teaching style to get the best out of our students. In our kindergarten classes, the maximum number of students per class is 12, which allows us to provide a high-quality experience. I genuinely enjoy working here, and we have a great support system with our co-teachers and director. If you have any questions from a native instructor’s perspective, feel free to contact me at grose201@gmail.com."
