Привет! I'm Katya - a certified English and Russian teacher with 9+ years of experience helping learners at every level start truly thinking in their target language.
I hold a Master's in Education (2020), Cambridge FCE (2016), and TKT (2018) - a teaching certificate valid in 60+ countries. I also studied in Ireland (2019).
What my classes look like:
I create most of my own materials, so lessons are engaging and tailored to you.
After each class I share personalised feedback. Homework is available - but never forced. Learning should feel motivating, not stressful.
My favourite moment? Watching a student stop translating and just start speaking. Book a trial and let's get you there! 😊

Katya excels at customizing her teaching to match her students' needs and learning speeds. Her lessons are always well-prepared, engaging, and filled with relevant materials that not only challenge but also inspire progress at a comfortable pace.
What truly distinguishes Katya is her passion for teaching and her dedication to student success. She consistently provides additional resources and support, going above and beyond to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the material. Her patience and encouragement have been key in boosting my confidence in speaking and understanding Russian.
Her insights into Russian culture have also been a highlight, adding depth to my learning and sparking a greater interest in the language and its cultural background.
Katya's professionalism, warmth, and dedication make her an exceptional teacher. Her lessons are not just educational but also a delightful experience, thanks to her friendly and supportive approach.
I wholeheartedly recommend Katya

Katya is genuinely an amazing teacher, as someone who is very insecure and anxious I have felt at ease with her since my first lesson. The lessons themself have a very casual yet educative atmosphere, where I can freely make jokes and share things about my own life as well as my culture. I don't have to worry about asking too many questions, as she's always been happy to answer any of them. She's very informative, and knows how to explain both simple and complex topics very well in clear and understandable ways.
Since I've started learning Russian with her, I feel like I've improved a lot in a relatively short time, and am looking forward to continuing to learn more with her :)

I’ve had a few tutors since I began learning Russian, and Katya is certainly one of the better ones. She uses a great platform, her explanations are clear and easy to understand, and she’s patient, always giving me enough time to speak and find the right words. I definitely feel I’m progressing with her lessons.
