Me as a Teacher

I know how hard and strange looks Russian language for foreigners so I always try to show a real world of Russia. No matreshkas and Tolstoy. There are many things about Russia which are unknown but very interesting. Turkey is my favorite country, I was living in Istanbul half of year to understand and learn better Turkish language and culture. Also I have passed a TÖMER's exam so if you need to prepare for it feel free to ask any question. I am native speaker but I am constantly learning new languages to understand wishes and problems of my students.

My lessons & teaching style

I am trying to make an individual program for every student. For every lesson I prepare special plan and after the lesson I analyze it. I am keeping in touch with students so they are free to ask me not just during our lesson. My main goal is to help my students achieve their goals. I´d love to be a part of your language learning journey.

Another excellent lesson with Alexandra. She is really understanding of how slow the process of learning a brand new language is and is just a pleasure to deal with each and every time!
