English isn’t just my job—it’s my life. I use it daily: news, films, conversations. Let’s make it yours too!Me as a Teacher
I have higher education in linguistics and teaching and a Cambridge certificate as an international teacher of English.
I've been working as a teacher for more than 14 years. I worked in best language schools in Moscow, as a corporate teacher for big companies (Yandex, l'Oreal, Ferrero, Claas, and others) and as a private tutor. I was a cofounder and methodologist for an English school and I also had my own English Speaking Clubs in Moscow and Batumi. I had students with different needs and requests: English just "for everyday life", for travel, for work. My lessons & teaching style
My style of teaching is a balance between some kind of following a programme and just having fun. You will know exactly how to improve your English and get results and at the same time we will always have a nice and relaxing atmosphere in my lessons.
I use only the best materials for my lessons: Cambridge and Oxford textbooks, special professional textbooks for Business English, youtube videos, and podcasts. I teach not just English, I teach communication!My teaching material

Elena is a highly experienced teacher. I asked her to help me improve my spoken language, particularly my pronunciation and fluency. She has a whole method for achieving this, involving practising sounds, tongue twisters, reading, dialog, practicing intonation, stress and linking words, and much more. Besides that, Elena is an easy-going person who is nice to talk to. I would definitely recommend her!

Елена готовила меня к собедованию на английском языке, в международную компанию,
могу сказать смело что это была прям очень крутая проработка:)
Были проработаны приемы не только как корректнее сказать на английском языке, но и как сказать чтобы это выгодно звучало, продаваемо, выделяло среди других кандидатов )
Очень рекомендую Елену как уверенного специалиста своего дела, заряжает позитивом, помогает поверить в себя, очень классный тренинг:)
Сердечно благодарю!

Elena helped me to prepare for an unexpected interview in just one day. I became more confident in the conversation. The interview went well, even better than I initially expected.
I definitely recommend to study with Elena 👍🏼
