Which language do you think is harder to learn: German or English? 

I think German is harder to learn 🇩🇪 

German grammar is more complicated than English. 
But spelling and pronunciation are more complicated in English.


I think that it depends on what your native language is. None of these languages are my mother tongue, so for me I think that English is easier than German, especially when we are speaking grammar. Even though many people think that German is hard to learn, I still prefer it to many other languages, I don't regret a second of learning this beautiful language.

Same many words are similar in German and English 

👋 Привіт! Мене звати Юрій!

В даний момент я викладаю англійську для людей різного віку. Допомагаю почати говорити та будувати речення вже з перших уроків! 🥳

Не можу гарантувати, що вам не знадобиться трохи зусиль, але англійська стане набагато легшею та зрозумілішою, ніж у школі чи університеті! 😁

Завдяки англійській, я знайшов багато друзів з різних країн. 😎

Моє бажання - розвіяти всі ваші страхи та переживання щодо англійської і надихнути вас рухатись до вашої цілі. 🎯

Intro Yurii-4889be

Yurii

Я маю досвід у викладанні англійської для людей різного віку, включаючи як дітей, так і дорослих. З мого досвіду стало очевидним, що багато людей бояться вивчати англійську мову через страх, що нічого не вийде.

Для мене великим завданням є розвіяти будь-які страхи та невпевненість у собі в цій сфері.

На моїх уроках буде багато практики та невелика кількість граматики. Ми будемо працювати, немов у спортзалі, з однією вагою, поки вона не стане надзвичайною легкою, і лише тоді перейдемо до наступного рівня.

Важливо не поспішати і не брати на себе більше, ніж можна перенести. Якщо вам ще складно працювати з поточним матеріалом, немає сенсу швидко переходити до більш складного.

На моїх уроках ви отримаєте можливість зміцнити ваші навички, перш ніж рухатися далі.

👋 Hello! My name is Yuri!

I currently teach English to people of all ages. Helping to start speaking and building sentences already from the first lessons! 🥳

I can't guarantee that you won't need a little effort, but English will become much easier and more understandable than at school or university! 😁

Thanks to English, I made many friends from different countries. 😎

My desire is to dispel all your fears and anxieties about English and inspire you to move towards your goal. 🎯

I have experience in teaching English to people of all ages, including both children and adults. From my experience, it became obvious that many people are afraid to learn English because of the fear that nothing will work out.

A big challenge for me is to dispel any fears and self-doubt in this area.

My lessons will include a lot of practice and a small amount of grammar. We will work, like in the gym, with one weight until it becomes extremely light, and only then will we move to the next level.

It is important to take your time and not take on more than you can handle. If you still find it difficult to work with the current material, there is no point in quickly moving on to a more difficult one.

In my lessons, you will have the opportunity to strengthen your skills before moving on.

Helping to overcome the fear that only geniuses can learn English!👨‍🎨
Perfect for beginners! 🤩

My name is Viktoriya. I started my career as a tutor of English when I was studying at Perm State Technical University in 2007. After graduating from the university in Russia I moved to Germany to continue my studies and to improve my knowledge of foreign languages. I studied at Leipzig University of Applied Sciences. My Programm was taught in English and German. In Germany I kept on teaching English, besides, I was teaching Russian as a foreign language. In 2013 I moved to Israel where I worked in a multinational company.
I also carried on giving private lessons of  German. I gained a great life experience living in these countries. I got a wonderful possibility to meet very interesting people from all over the world,  to develop myself and to broaden my outlook. 
Currently, I’m living in Austria. 
I love travelling. To my mind, travelling (as well as education) is one of the things you spend money on that will make you richer.
Moreover, I am into sport and yoga.

I have finished a 5-year-program in Linguistics and Interpreting at Perm State Technical University. I have obtained a DSH Stufe-3 Certificate (C1 Level) in Leipzig University. I have finished 350-hour course on 'Methods of teaching Russian as a foreign language' at Moscow State University.

My students are little kids who I play games, draw and sing songs with; my students are also teenagers and adults who need help in passing international and national language certificate exams. I also teach business people whose work is impossible without good language skills. And I try to find the most efficient approach to each student I teach so that the lessons would be captivating and resultative.
In my lessons I use different textbooks and workbooks, as well as audio and video materials. Moreover, I always add different online interactive platforms and worksheets.
