Hello, everyone






Es KayHi! I'm Shefali. I am from India. I am now in Coventry near Earlsdon. I have one husband and one daughter. They are both in Trivandrum in South India.

I am on the course to consolidate what I know and to learn what I don't know. Also, going back to school after more than two decades is a big adventure.

Hello Suzanne and all my friends! I come from India's first planned and smoke-free city, Chandigarh. It is a lush green city with a man made lake and therefore, truly lives up to its tag: The City Beautiful!
I belong to a family of four: my parents and a younger sister.
I always found a strong connect with the language of English; my maternal grandfather was a professor of English and my mother an English teacher for 30 years. I studied a combination of English literature and Education in graduation and did my first masters in English with Linguistics.
Taken after my mother and completely passion driven, I got into the profession of teaching English right after I completed my masters. 
Studying the Queen's language, in the Queen's country: England, was always my dream. After teaching for a few years in College, I thought of taking a step further by developing and honing my skills in language teaching. Therefore, I enrolled myself in the master's degree of English Language Teaching at One of England's most prestigious institutions, The University of Warwick, a dream come true for me!
