I'll tell you my secret: the first language I learned to read in is... English! Although I'm a Russian native-speaker, I grew up in a multilingual family: we spoke Russian, English, and Hebrew. :) Why do I teach languages? I'm good at explaining things in a simple way, I like to share knowledge, and I want to help people become better and smarter. I have over six years of online tutoring experience. My students have gone on to get their dream jobs, travel, and make friends abroad. You can be one of them. ;) Fun fact: I watch horror movies to relax. 1. As a graduate of the Minsk Linguistic College, I've got the know-how in grammar, phonetics, lexicology, etc. With my knowledge of the basics, you'll build a solid foundation and move confidently to more advanced English skills. 2. Last year, I prepared a group of students from Africa and Vietnam with 0 knowledge of English for courses at a Warsaw Business School. They successfully passed the entrance exam. Bingo! 3. My youngest student was 11 years old, and the oldest was 68. I'm comfortable with people of all ages, and I can adapt quickly to all levels of English, from beginner to advanced. No matter your English level, I've got you covered. 4. I helped my students adjust to life abroad, prepare for job interviews, and offered specialized classes in marketing, networking, IT, business English, finance, and travel. 5. I use a student-centered approach, tailoring lessons to your goals, interests, and needs. I prepare each lesson so that you'll enjoy your time with me and learn My teaching style focuses on practical skills to ensure you can use English in real-life situations. I mix grammar, speaking, listening, and writing for well-rounded practice. I use role-playing for different scenarios, such as ordering in a restaurant, making an emergency call, taking a taxi, or even creating a dating app profile. I also encourage you to speak English throughout our lessons to help you feel comfortable with the language.
