Hi, I'm Ksenia! Originally from Russia, I'm currently based in Serbia. I love travelling, exploring new cultures and cuisines.
🎓 I hold a degree in Linguistics and a CELTA Pass B — a highly regarded Cambridge qualification for teaching English as a foreign language.

I particularly enjoy Business English, and bring several years of experience as an HR specialist at multinational companies like British American Tobacco and Danone.
📚 My lessons are tailored to your goals and interests, using a variety of materials: coursebooks from Oxford and Cambridge University Press, YouTube videos, TED Talks, news articles, and more.
👩🎓 I work with adults at levels A2–B2.
Привет! Я Ксения, живу в Сербии. Люблю путешествовать, изучать новые культуры и пробовать местную кухню.

Ksenia is a great teacher! She makes the lessons very interactive and politely corrects me when I’m wrong. The time flies by during our classes, and she also spends a lot of time working on pronunciation and explains grammar rules in a very clear way
