Hello everyone! My name is Mary. I’m an English teacher based in Russia, and I also teach Russian.
I’ve been teaching English for over 10 years. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Philology (2015) and have worked in both public and private schools. Along the way, I completed the CELTA course in Barcelona and founded my own language centre — experiences that helped me hone my teaching skills and work with learners of all ages and levels.
Teaching languages is not just my job — it’s what I truly live and breathe. I devote most of my time to teaching, learning, and professional growth, and I believe in practising what I preach by maintaining an active and balanced lifestyle.Me as a Teacher
Привет всем! Меня зовут Мария, я - преподаватель английского языка, живущий в России. Разумеется, я могу преподавать также и русский. Я преподаю английский уже 10 лет. У меня диплом бакалавра по специальности - филология 2015 года, с того времени я работала как в государственных, так и в частных школах, получила CELTA в Барселоне, открыла свой языковой центр. Я довольно опытный преподаватель. Я преподаю английский и русский любым уровням и возрастам. Я с ума схоже по преподаванию и изучению языков, поэтому большая часть моего времени посвящена им. Мне также нравится играть в теннис, бег, читать, кодить, тестить и готовить. Я забочусь о своем теле, поэтому хожу в спортзал три раза в неделю. My lessons & teaching style
I favour a communicative approach that helps students develop confident speaking skills, expand their vocabulary, and improve grammar naturally. My lessons are highly interactive, and my goal is to help you speak fluently and realise that English is far less difficult than it seems — in fact, it’s a piece of cake.
Предпочитаю коммуникативную методику, которая помогает студентам улучшить говорение, увеличить словарный запас, улучшить грамматику и аудирование. Мои уроки содержат много интерактивного материла. Моя цель - научить Вас говорить свободно, показать, что это не так сложно, как Вы думаете, напротив, проще простого.My teaching material
