I have been teaching on italki for a year and a half and I really enjoy communicating with students from all over the world. I love teaching grammar as well as spoken language.
My minor at University was translating and interpreting. After graduation I worked as an interpreter for American couples who came for adoption in Ukraine. I interpreted for them during court hearings, meetings with officials, at orphanages etc. This experience have given me a lot for developing my professional skills as well as for personal growth.
I also worked as a translator/interpreter in several dating agencies in my town, a freelance translator in several translating agencies, a teacher of English at the Zhytomyr Branch of Kyiv State Foreign Language Courses, a teacher of English at Montessori Early Education Center.
