Hey everyone and welcome to my profile!
I’m a passionate language teacher fluent in Russian, German and Japanese, and speak three other languages: English, French, Italian, and a little bit od Korean. Growing up in a small village in Siberia, living in Japan, and now in Berlin, I’ve immersed myself in diverse cultures. With a background in linguistics and years of experience, I’ve discovered how learning new languages can truly open your mind and shape who you are.
Whether you're starting with German, Russian or Japanese, I’m here to help you explore new worlds and grow through language!
As a trained linguist with many years of experience, I’ve had the joy of teaching students from all walks of life. From Russian and German at a Japanese university to shaping a Russian coursebook and teaching across Germany, Russia, and Japan, my journey has been all about helping people unlock new languages.
I’m known for my patience and love for making even the trickiest language rules—like grammar—easy to understand. Whether you’re stuck on a word or curious about culture, I’m here to guide you. But what I enjoy most is watching my students’ progress (I know it sounds a bit cheezy :)) —but it’s the best part of teaching, knowing that every step forward brings a new sense of achievement.
In my classes, I focus on the communicative method, meaning you'll be engaging in conversation from day one. Don’t worry—grammar and tricky linguistic features will be explained in a way that makes sense...My teaching material

I have been learning German with Egor for a while now, and I couldn’t be happier with the progress I’ve made. Lessons are always engaging, well-structured, and tailored to my goals. Egor has a great ability to explain complex grammar in a clear and simple way, and always encourages me to speak more confidently. I especially appreciate the patience, positive energy, and practical approach that make each class both productive and enjoyable. I highly recommend Egor to anyone who wants to learn German effectively and with pleasure!
