I've been preparing for the FCE exam with Natasha, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. She's incredibly patient, supportive, and a great listener: she always takes the time to understand my needs and adapt the lessons accordingly. I get plenty of speaking practice in every session, which has really helped me build confidence and fluency. Her lessons are well-structured but relaxed, creating the perfect environment to improve. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to improve their English, especially if you're preparing for the FCE! So satisfied ❤

Natasha is an admirable English teacher. I have already completed 50 lessons with her and plan to continue. I enjoy studying grammar and vocabulary with her, as well as engaging in conversations on various topics and discussing life. She is a very open and loyal person, empathetic and patient with those who are still navigating the waters of English. Not only does she possess a beautiful voice and flawless pronunciation, but she also prepares interesting materials and engaging stories for our lessons. Her knowledge of French and Russian comes in handy during moments of confusion, as it helps to clarify certain points. Natasha has a genuine curiosity for different cultures and truly loves her profession. She conducts herself with utmost professionalism, and I highly recommend her to anyone seeking to speak English in a precise and elegant manner.

Natasha is honestly such a great teacher. Right from the start, she's been super into helping me get better. She's always there when I've got questions and never makes me feel like I can't do something. Plus, she's got cool materials and always knows the fun topics to bring up to help me improve. Big thanks to her!

Great lesson! We worked on my Achilles’ heel, which is prepositions.
