Me as a Teacher
I have studied languages and literatures at university and on my own. I lived in several countries, so I know differences in educational systems in different countries. I can speak Russian, Ukrainian, English, some Italian, German, and Kazakh. I have been tutoring students for more than 25 years. I am a patient teacher and love helping people.

My lessons & teaching style
On the first lesson I usually ask you some question to see your level. And then we discuss what exactly you need to improve. In our class we can focus on whatever you need: grammar, vocabulary, speaking, writing or listening. I'll provide you with all the materials before the lesson. I can also check your homework. Just ask me what you need and I'll get it ready for the lesson. We can discuss different topics, watch videos or just have an interesting talk to improve your conversational skills.

Nataly is very flexible and approaches to the needs of her students. She takes her time to prepare herself for the lessons and is a very responsible person

Natalya is an excellent teacher. You will find that she is very gentle, kind and supportive in helping you to understand both the language itself and how to speak naturally and freely. For an example: if you are learning verbs of motion, very quickly you will know and understand each verb AND why and how it is used. After close to five years’ struggle, at the end of my first lesson I understood. Pretty amazing.

A very good lesson today. We covered new vocabulary and more grammar and did a lot of speaking during our lesson. My Russian is definitely improving with each lesson. Nataly is an excellent teacher

Natalie was super helpful! I'm preparing for a test, so we spent the time talking about some of the themes I expect to discuss on my test. She would ask questions, I would answer, and she would provide corrections or suggestions. These I would practice and then we would move onward! Very cool, will schedule another class.

A lesson went well. Had tech issues but it’s not Natalys fault.

I had another great lesson with Nataly. She is very good at finding the areas I need help with most. I'm also quite appreciative that she is patient and explains things. The homework elements are quite helpful, too. Thank you very much.
