About Me
italki teacher since Aug 23, 2017InterestsReadingScienceSports & Fitness
Originally from Russia, I have devoted my career to the study and teaching of foreign languages, which are both my profession and my passion. With 28 years’ experience as a university lecturer, I now offer my expertise through online teaching. I take great satisfaction in guiding students from beginner to advanced levels, helping them gain fluency and confidence in German or Russian. My approach is personalised to each individual’s needs, ensuring a supportive and inspiring learning journey. Beyond teaching, I enjoy travelling and connecting with people from diverse backgrounds, which further enriches my understanding of languages and cultures.Me as a Teacher
I graduated Pedagogical University in Siberia and got a diploma of a teacher of German and PhD in pedagogy. My native language is Russian, but I have been teaching German at university for many years and I have the experience of teaching from zero to advanced level.
On italki I have been teaching for more than 6 year. I am lucky to have the amazing students which are passionate about German and motivated to learn. And I learn from my students as well! Every person has his or her own track, pace and capacity and I would like to support everyone on this journey.My lessons & teaching style
Learning is a creative process and it is always a two-way street. As a teacher, I am trying to replicate the life situations to prepare you for the real ones. Fluent speaking is a core language competence, which is based on the grammar, significant vocabulary and knowing the culture. I will be glad to improve your pronunciation, enhance the vocabulary and develop the speaking skills based on the special exercises. I will propose you describe the pictures, share your ideas and discuss the articles, books and videos. On advanced level we will focus on meaning of words, complex grammar and will speak a lot!
I am happy to help other people in their language practice. Welcome to my classes!My teaching material

I highly recommend Elena as a German language teacher. She is incredibly trustworthy and knowledgeable, with a deep understanding of the language and a genuine care for her students' progress. One of her standout qualities is her ability to anticipate common errors and guide students to correct them independently, fostering a deeper understanding of the language.
Our lessons are very focused on speaking, which has been invaluable for developing my conversational skills. Additionally, Elena shares many practical and useful German expressions that have greatly enhanced my ability to express myself naturally. Learning with her is both effective and enjoyable. Thank you, Elena! Und Frohe Weihnachten! 🎄

Елена — это замечательный преподаватель немецкого языка, который вдохновляет и помогает достигать высоких результатов. Она мастерски объясняет сложные аспекты грамматики, делает их понятными и доступными. Елена прекрасно владеет немецким языком и умело вовлекает учеников в живой разговор, что помогает быстрее развивать навыки общения.
С ней обучение становится увлекательным процессом, а время на уроках пролетает незаметно. Я рекомендую Елену всем, кто хочет изучать немецкий язык углубленно, научиться красиво и ясно выражать свои мысли, а также быть уверенным в своём языке, общаясь с носителями.

Elena is an exceptional German teacher. She not only guides and listens attentively but also seems to anticipate the mistakes I might make before I even make them. Her deep understanding of grammar and ability to introduce interesting, useful vocabulary make every lesson both enjoyable and effective. I'm truly grateful to learn from her.

Моя преподавательница немецкого языка – это настоящий профессионал своего дела. Она не просто отлично знает язык, но и глубоко понимает, как его преподавать. Она словно предвидит сложности, с которыми может столкнуться ученик, и помогает их преодолеть ещё до того, как они возникнут. Такой подход делает обучение не только эффективным, но и по-настоящему увлекательным.
Если вы мечтаете овладеть немецким языком быстро и надолго, я от всей души рекомендую обратиться именно к ней. Её знания, опыт и индивидуальный подход к каждому ученику творят чудеса. С ней вы не просто выучите язык, вы полюбите его так же, как люблю его я.
