Hello, my name is Ekaterina. I'm a native Russian and a professional teacher of Russian for foreigners, awarded PhD in philological science. I have wide range of interests such as business, politics, atrs, psychology.Me as a Teacher
I've been teaching Russian since 1998. For 18 years I was working for the Lomonosov Moscow State University. For the last 19 years I've been conducting individual lessons of Russian.
I teach Russian for different levels and proceed from individual needs and goals of my attendees:
- Russian from zero
- Russian to communicate in daily life situations
- business Russian and other professional goals (foreign affears etc)
- training for different TRFL tests
- holding TRFL tests
- teaching to read Russian literature in the originalMy lessons & teaching style
In my work I use the best methodology proven by the Lomonosov Moscow State University and unique technics of my own. I use a lot of pictures and tables working with beginners. And I mostly proceed from original texts and video materials when I work with higher levels. And in all the levels I communicate a lot with my attendees, correcting their mistakes and providing all the necessary explanations and trainings. Many clients of mine point out that my lessons are always structured, explanations are clear, and that after a number of Russian teachers it's only after studying with me they could finally understand tricky features of the Russian grammar.My teaching material

A wonderful teacher who made the learning experience even better. She quickly picked up on what I knew and what I didn't, and knew what we could work on for the future. I appreciate her time and kindness in working through student learning.

Ekaterina was amazing ! The learning environment was fun, and dynamic. Today was our first lesson. She gave so much attention to detail in my lesson making sure that I understood the pronunciation of all words. This is so important in learning Russian. The first lesson we had today was well prepared and structured for my beginner's level. I love how she develops a personal learning plan for me as her student according to my language learning goals. She is the BEST teacher if you are serious about learning Russian fluently.
