Hello, I’m Katya! I am a professional philologist and CELTA-certified teacher with over 7 years of experience. I specialize in Aviation English, Business English, and my native Ukrainian. I am dedicated to helping you achieve your goals through precise and structured learning. My teaching style is based on the Communicative Approach - we focus on actively using the language, not just memorizing rules. ✈️ Aviation English As a certified Aviation English Teacher, I focus on ICAO standards (TEA, Versant tests), clear pronunciation, and "plain English" for non-routine situations. We use the "Flightpath" textbook and authentic ATC scenarios (including weather, navigation, and emergencies). Focus: 80% Speaking & Simulation | 20% Grammar. 🇺🇦 Ukrainian Language My "teacher’s soul" is open to you! I create a relaxed atmosphere where you can speak without fear. I adapt to your pace, helping you sound natural as you discover our rich culture. Focus: 70% Real-life conversation | 30% Vocabulary & Grammar. 💼 Business English I can also help you master corporate vocabulary, meetings, and presentations. I create a unique plan for every student based on their goals. Please send me a message with your specific needs before our first lesson!

Катя – абсолютно чудова вчителька! I have now been studying Ukrainian with Katya for three months, and I can say that I not only look forward to every lesson, but I’ve made significant progress. She has spoken Ukrainian her whole life and has a lot of insights into the intricacies of pronunciation and vocabulary, which is very helpful as a lot of people around me tend to mix Ukrainian and Russian. She often plans the lessons herself rather than relying on a textbook, which means that every lesson is custom tailored to my learning needs. She prioritizes my interests as a student so that we can practice talking about them, and she always uses Ukrainian to explain new words or concepts, which is so helpful for re-mapping my own inner voice to speak Ukrainian, which is amazing. My confidence in speaking has increased dramatically. I recommend Katya to all my friends and family, I feel very lucky to have found such a great teacher so early in my journey :)

I can count on the fact that lessons with Katya will be pleasant and even relaxing - her calm and patient demeanor always puts me at ease. And besides that, she has a true talent for concisely explaining grammatical concepts that have long stumped me. I'm happy I am one of her students, and I'm very excited for the lessons ahead!

Katya is an excellent teacher. She is very encouraging but also makes sure you are doing things correctly. It’s clear she has professional experience with teaching- her lessons are thoughtful, thorough and well structured. As a native English speaker, I am unaccustomed to making many sounds in the Ukrainian alphabet, but Katya is incredibly helpful in helping me hear the differences and guiding me on how to replicate them. I have seen people charge 3x as much for language tutoring locally for 1/2 the quality that Katya provides. I cannot recommend her enough!
