My name is Anush Manukyan. I was born in Armenia, a place that shaped my love for education, language, and culture. I graduated from Yerevan State University, Faculty of Romance and Germanic Languages, where I built a strong academic foundation in linguistics and communication.
After completing my studies, I worked for several years at the European Academy as an English lecturer. At the same time, I provided private English lessons in various educational institutions, teaching students of different ages and backgrounds. These experiences helped me develop flexibility, patience, and a deep understanding of how to connect with learners and adapt lessons to meet their individual needs.
After eight years of teaching, I began a new chapter in my professional career by working at the Civil Registry Office of the Ministry of Justice of the Republic of Armenia, first as a first-class specialist and later as the acting Head of the Department. This role strengthened my organizational, leadership, and communication skills and gave me valuable experience working in a structured, professional environment.
In 2020, I moved to the United States, and I am very excited and honored to join the Erebuni Armenian School, where I now have the opportunity to teach children their mother language. I deeply love my language and my culture, and it brings me great joy to pass this love on to the next generation. I truly believe that preserving our language is one of the most important ways to preserve our identity.
With a smile, I often joke that sometimes people confuse me with the students when they enter the classroom, until the lesson begins! This lighthearted moment always reminds me how important it is to keep a warm, friendly, and approachable atmosphere in the classroom. I am married and a proud mother of two boys. In my free time, I enjoy singing and spending quality time with my family, which I consider the greatest gift in life. I am truly honored to be a part of the Erebuni community, contributing to our children’s education and cultural growth.
