Meet Our Tutors

Albena Vitanova

I've spent half of my life learning English and the other half - teaching (and still learning) English. I have an MA in English Philology from Sofia University and Cambridge DELTA. For the last 8 years I have been a teacher trainer at AVO-Bell and, since 2004, a CELTA tutor.

CELTA courses have always been a source of inspiration for me and have given me the chance to meet lots of bright and motivated trainees from all over the world.

    Paul Whitney

Paul has over 14 years' experience teaching English in several European countries and has worked for many institutions, including various companies and the British Council. He has taught all levels but at the moment works mainly on preparing teenagers to take Cambridge exams. He is DELTA qualified and is a Cambridge oral examiner. In his spare time he loves travelling and photography.

Svetla Tashevska

People I have worked with know me in many different capacities – as teacher of English, in-service teacher trainer, university language teaching methodologist, mentor, mentor-trainer, CELTA and DELTA trainer, project team member. No matter how varied the roles have been though, they all have one thing in common – a dedicated person, with a genuine interest in learning. I enjoy teaching and assisting people in their learning. It is so rewarding to see the small cocoon turn into a fully-grown butterfly and to take part in facilitating the process…
I love the mountains and although I do not go caving and climbing any more, every now and then I try to escape from the busy city life to the cool and beauty of the Balkan, Rila, Pirin or Vitosha.
