Hi, everyone! My name is Emily Rush and I'm a new teacher at ESH. I am teaching the beginner class, which I am really enjoying. I just moved to Toronto from Montreal a month ago, so I am new to Toronto just like many of you! I am Canadian but I grew up all over the world. I have lived in many countries, such as Hungary, Russia, the US, the UAE, Austria, and Australia.I loved growing up overseas but it sure is nice to be back in Canada! I decided to become a teacher of English because I love meeting people from different cultures and I love languages. At university I studied linguistics, or the study of language, and I love sharing English with speakers of other languages and love learning new languages myself. I have learned French and Russian and I am currently learning Arabic. For me, teaching is such a rewarding experience, and I hope to carry on for many years to come!
Everyone I have met at ESH so far has been so friendly and interesting, students and teachers alike! When I'm not teaching, I enjoy running, playing sports such as volleyball or basketball, hanging out with friends, going for walks around the city, trying new restaurants, and studying Arabic. A special HI to all my students out there, and for all those students I havent met yet, I hope we shall meet soon!~Emily
