About Me
italki teacher since Sep 2, 2021InterestsScienceReadingFilms & TV SeriesHistory
My name is Daria Zhiromskaia. I was born in Kostroma, one of the small and beautiful cities of Russia. There I received my first education. I am a teacher of Russian language and literature.
Now I live in St. Petersburg. I have been here for almost six years, and for four of them I have been teaching Russian.Me as a Teacher
I believe that no one can teach anyone but himself. A teacher is a gadfly that stings a stubborn donkey. I'm sorry if you don't like that metaphor. Thanks to the Internet, we have everything we need to learn languages. The problem is that we don't know how to use these opportunities properly. That's why we need a teacher.
I am a "teacher-gadfly" who very patiently and gently stings students with Russian grammar until they realize that there are no more grammar rules in their heads, but only thinking in Russian.My lessons & teaching style
My method is personalization. All my students are different. I can't use the same method with everyone. That's why in the first classes we don't just learn Russian, but we also look for exercises that help them personally to memorize words and phrases the best.
Think about what kind of student you are, what kind of learning style you prefer. Unfortunately, teachers can't accurately assess their students' learning styles. But I believe that a friendly atmosphere, attention to study habits, and a strong bond between student and teacher is the key to success.
I hope I have inspired you to start Russian language classes with me. I look forward to meeting you.Education
