Valeria

Hi! My name is Valeria. I am a native Russian speaker and a graduate of the Faculty of English Philology at Vilnius University. I am also a young but experienced English and Russian teacher. I have been tutoring online for 4 years already, and now I also work as an English teacher for preschoolers (5-6 years old). I am interested in art, culture, language learning (currently learning my 4th language:)) and meeting new people. I always try to individualize my lessons to make them more useful and enjoyable for my students. For students who want to study English with me: English has been an essential part of my life for many years - I use it for studying, working, and communicating with friends and colleagues. The experience of taking IELTS, university exams and several internships has made me feel comfortable and natural with this language. And I want my students to feel that way too. I have been working as an online English tutor for adults and children. In addition, I got experience in teaching English at a bilingual kindergarten and primary school. For students who want to study Russian with me: The experience of being a native speaker and teaching Russian to foreigners for more than 3 years allows me to understand the main difficulties and issues the students may have. That's why I always give materials in a structured and clear way and try to support my students in their struggles. I focus on equal development of their vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation. I always try to individualize lessons to make them more useful and enjoyable for my students: I take into consideration their interests, motivation and challenges.
