Hello everyone, my name is Michelle and I'm Irish/Cypriot and live on the sunny island of Cyprus. I have been teaching for the past five years but have always been an avid reader and writer. I have me... mories from childhood of filling out empty copybooks with stories, keeping long diaries and documenting my life through the written word. Since language is something I genuinely enjoy playing with, I aim to remind my students that language can produce wonderful effects and help us become more deeply understood to ourselves. I have dabbled in journalism, travel writing, poetry and more. Over the last few years, I have also dedicated time to becoming a professional astrologer where interpretation, myth and observation have been taken to new levels. I often write astrological offerings and read natal charts for people. I consider it a new language, much like what I'll be teaching you!
