Hi everyone! My name is Elena, I live in Russia, in the Urals. During my life, I tried several professions, but gradually and consciously came to the decision that I want to teach Russian as a foreign language. My hobbies include gardening, cycling and, of course, learning English. Over the past 3 years, I have been able to successfully help people from various contries improve their knowledge of the Russian language.
Me as a Teacher
I consider myself an open and patient teacher with a good sense of humor. I am very demanding of myself as a teacher, I always carefully select the material for the upcoming lesson and take seriously the development of homework for the student, as well as feedback. I tend to see the lesson through the eyes of the student and use the questions asked as the main tool.
My lessons & teaching style
I provide structured lessons both for those who are just starting to learn Russian, and for students with a higher level. I prefer to use a communicative approach to teaching, focusing on the development of speaking and listening skills.
During conversational Russian classes, I often use methods and techniques that encourage the student to easily formulate thoughts in the target language. I always try to make lessons fun and as enjoyable as possible for both my students and myself. I consider it very important to create a comfortable atmosphere in my classes where the student’s emotional involvement in what is happening is formed. I have all the necessary materials and my own lesson designs.

The teacher is always very thoughtful in designing teaching materials for class and choosing appropriate homework for me to practice after each class. She is a very diligent and efficient teacher. What’s interesting is that in every class, she seemed to know what I would forget and would ask me specific questions about the relevant knowledge. This shows that she is a teacher who pays great attention to the progress of her students.

I've been learning Russian from the teacher on this online platform for a while. Her teaching is truly outstanding. She explains grammar rules with vivid examples, making them easy to understand. The vocabulary - building activities she designs are both fun and practical. She's also patient with every question. Looking forward to further progress under her guidance.

I have gained a lot recently. I have learned a lot of different adjectives, with many types and variations. The teacher explained them one by one very patiently and carefully. Under her guidance, difficult language becomes easy to understand in an interesting learning way.

The teacher is always well prepared and teaches in a very systematic way. The adjectives we are learning now have many different variations. She patiently explained them to me one by one and helped me master them through practice. As I learn more words, learning becomes more and more interesting.
