SPAIN: In an exclusive interview with TCT, English teacher and travel enthusiast Elizaveta Omsheva talks about her interests, aspirations, and hobbies that give her a lot of perspective and motivation.
Elizaveta talks about power of learning languages
From the age of 17, Elizaveta has been living abroad and has always adored English and travelling. She has an English philology Master’s Degree and received a TEFL/TESOL certificate in England.
She wanted to globe-trot, and some places she visited included the USA, Germany, Greece, Spain, and Israel. Her goal in life is to assist people in speaking English fluently so that they are exposed to a lot of opportunities worldwide.
Elizaveta says, “I believe I’m an expert in teaching. Most of my students live abroad, pass international exams, find their love, have amazing jobs and live a happy life.”
According to her, having a fair understanding and command of English can assist one in all aspects of life. It can aid people in meeting a lot of culturally diverse people internationally. She commenced sharing subtle information about her personal life on social media only a few months back as she realised that gave her confidence and motivation.
She says, “Respect and a positive attitude are the keys to successful communication. I want to develop my social media more because it’s inspiring and really useful these days, I believe.”
According to Elizaveta, she, like most other people, prefers working online as that creates more opportunities for people to multitask and also cater to other personal hobbies. She says that she is a very jolly as well as “active person” and endeavours to maximise her daily productivity.
She caters to sports activities, takes classes and also visits fascinating museums. She also loves to study and invariably be merry. She says that life is an exciting venture and that “self-development is the best hobby”.
Elizaveta is currently working on her courses. She mentions that she also cherishes being free and confident and knowing about different aspects of life. She says she is confident and often “strict” with herself. She claims that often; she feels exhausted and overwhelmed.
Her house is near the beach, which gives a sense of calmness. However, there are times when she has to stay in her house due to work that includes preparing for classes, talking with clients, engaging in sports, catering to Instagram accounts and studies. She highlights, “So it’s essential not to forget to disconnect! I often remind my students that quality free time is important .. but I forget about it pretty often.”
She has decided to move to the USA from Spain, where she is currently living. Her victories include aiding people in getting jobs internationally. She has received a lot of praise from many of her students, which makes her believe that there is a wonderful sense of accomplishment and victory in her profession. She adds, “To sum up, I can say that I truly love my work but have to spend more time on my hobbies, I believe and my personal life.”
Elizaveta says that being strong and confident helps one accomplish anything. She is optimistic and practical in handling situations in life. Omsheva believes in the power of three “ingredients” that would make life more enjoyable, which include “To know what you really want”, “Do all that you can and think outside the box”, and “Don’t give up! No matter what”.
Elizaveta’s parents and friends have supported her throughout all her endeavours in life. She adores her family despite them being away from her. She is able to speak five languages, and she thinks that being able to do so can help one get a lot of exposure, experience, and friendships. Her students motivate her as she says, “You should be kind to people, and they will try to help you with everything.”
In her final message to all the readers, Elizaveta suggests that learning languages can take one to places, help a person gain confidence, and have an optimistic outlook on life, which can make significant changes.
Planning is essential in life, as she highlights, “Be honest, kind and friendly. Follow your dreams! If you want to move, try to prepare and create a plan!”
She says that reading biographies of people can also provide a motivational factor to all readers. She infers by saying that there are specific questions that one should primarily ask oneself, “What is happiness? Answer these questions and think about what can you do now to achieve your aims and be happy?”
