Hello everyone! My name is Elena. I live in Russia, in the Urals, and teach Russian as a foreign language. I enjoy gardening, cycling, and learning English. Over the past 3,5 years, I have successfully helped people from different countries improve their knowledge of Russian.
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 believe that it is useful for a teacher to see and feel what is happening in a lesson situation through the eyes of a student. At least, strive for this.
My lessons & teaching style
I give structured lessons for both beginners and advanced students. I prefer to use a communicative approach to teaching, focusing on developing speaking and listening skills. I try to make the lessons as comfortable and engaging as possible and to form the student's emotional involvement in what is happening in the lesson.

We have more conversations, have made more progress, and my listening skills are getting better and better. I look forward to the next class.

Today I practiced conversations using the past tense. My confidence increased and I also learned some skills. I hope I can speak more fluently.
