I delivered my first private tutoring lesson - English, for that matter - when I was 18. I had just graduated highschool, then passed the tough admission exam at the University of Bucharest - Faculty of Journalism and Communication Studies, and I needed money for my summer time at the seaside with my (already) former classmates. That was a long, long time ago, precisely the year Metallica issued their still controversial "Black" album.I've been since teaching privately and in schools, part-time, as my main jobs were always in the media (started as a daily reporter, but spent most of my professional...
