Michael Robert Hayden

Personal Statement:

Flexible, adaptable and skilled English teacher, with experience of working with students from many different countries and with different backgrounds and educational needs. I put great emphasis on developing individual education plans for all my students. I have also worked as a successful sales and retail manager, finding success in various industries. I have worked with some of Britain's best-known brands and have a proven background of meeting and exceeding goals.

I have a very high level of communication and negotiation skills with a proven ability to build relationships at all levels. I can work effectively both individually or in teams, based on the situation.

A few years ago, I moved with my family to Sweden to return to my wife's home country. The last 3 years I have studied Swedish and worked as an English teacher, primarily for enterprise-English (Business English).

I'm always focused on improvements and am currently looking for a new challenge whilst now focusing on to start the next phase of my career. Professional experience:
