The first course that Agata graduated from at the Faculty of Special Education Academy Maria Grzegorzewska in Warsaw was an artistic education in the field of fine arts with a specialization in oligophrenopedagogy. Then she obtained a master’s degree in art in art therapy. During this period, she completed a number of teaching internships in pre-schools, primary schools and at the Youth Palace in Warsaw. The choice of the latter educational institution was not accidental, as in her youth she attended painting classes there for 8 years. When she was 15 she became an assistant instructor and supported Ms Saida Siczek in conducting classes with children of all ages.
Her professional experience was largely based on work in a pre-school, which is why she decided to complete postgraduate studies at the same university, majoring in pre-school and early school education. As she is interested in teaching in the humanistic pedagogy, with an emphasis on empathy and the development of emotional intelligence in children, she chose to work in a pre-school with elements of Montessori pedagogy and non-violent communication. She enriched her education with a one-year NVC course, which gave her a deeper insight into understanding children’s emotions and her own feelings.
“Happy Kids Academy is a place where I can benefit from my experience and an institution where I fully find myself as a teacher, and above all as a human being”.

My name is Mfonobong Obot. It may be a tongue twister for some, that’s why I go with Mfon, also pronounced as “HmmFUN”. I am a student at SGGW. I was born and raised in Nigeria. Ibibio is my mother tongue and its spoken by a minority in the Southern part of Nigeria. Even though Nigeria is a multilingual country, the official language is English.
I am here at Happy Kids’ Academy as an English Teacher. Coming from a multilingual background, I know what it means to learn a foreign language that’s why I try to explain to my students how to learn the language not memorize the phrases or grammar structure. My goal is to get my students to talk because communication is important. One can’t learn a language if they don’t use it.

Jambo! My name is Gloria and I am more than excited to be working with the Malenstwa group. This is my second year working as an english teacher.
