My name is Katya and I was born and raised in California in the United States.
I love teaching English to learners because it requires me to see my native language in new and interesting ways!
I enjoy exploring forests and mountains, folk dancing, cooking and trying to learn other languages. I am a student here on italki too! In the future, I want to learn how to rock climb.

First of all, I want to say that Katya is the best!!! I’ve tried many different teachers, but after just one lesson with her, I realized she was the teacher I had been searching for all along. If you’re unsure of your skills and afraid of making mistakes, don’t hesitate to take lessons with Katya — you’ll quickly forget all your worries. She creates a friendly and very comfortable atmosphere, always asks about your priorities, notices your mistakes, and corrects them. And most importantly for me, I can ask any questions about the language, and Katya always does her best to provide detailed, accurate, and informative answers.
She is incredibly supportive and helpful. If you’re unsure about pronunciation, she’ll help not only during the lesson but also afterward by sending voice messages with the correct pronunciation. I could go on and on about how much I love and enjoy learning with her, but I think it’s always best to experience it for yourself! Good luck!

I highly recommend her, she is very kind, patient and teaches us through reading short texts, giving explanations and correcting our pronunciation.
