Teacher
Deyan Zhelyazkov - Beginner/Upper Intermediate
Helen - Bulgarian Language Course Student: “I moved to SSEES as my previous institute did not offer classes beyond a basic level in Bulgarian - I now feel so much more confident and relaxed in speaking the language. The course strikes a good balance between all elements - grammar, speaking, listening, reading + writing. The vocabulary covered is consistently reviewed to ensure it is relevant to our needs. Resources are current and interesting and often include an authentic flavour of Bulgarian culture and history. The course tutor - Deyan is a skilful linguist who incorporates a huge variety of techniques to keep motivation and enjoyment levels high. He gives most generously of his time and uses technology efficiently to support our learning. His creative approach to online lessons has produced some unexpected bonuses e.g. tutor lead screen share notes allowing the class to focus on listening and speaking skills. I am impressed by the progress of everyone in the class.”
