About Me
italki teacher since Apr 14, 2020Me as a Teacher
I am a professional teacher and I have a PhD in Linguisctics. I've been teaching Russian and English for many years in Russia, in Spain, in Italy and online and I am proud of my students who live all over the world.
I understand my students well, as I am also keen on studying foreign languages and I'm constantly improving my skills. My goal is to help you enjoy the process of studying, the atmosphere at the lessons and the language itself.
The material I use is varied and officially proved as efficient.
My lessons are targeted at you, it means that my methodology, techniques, study material will depend on your goals, preferences and personality.My lessons & teaching style
I like MODERN ways of teaching. I enjoy using VISUAL material (movies, pictures, etc.)
I pay attention to speaking and translation techniques during the lessons. I am keen on travelling, photography, sports, history and culture and I am sure we'll find lots of topics to speak about. I like FRIENDLY ATMOSPHERE at the lessons and lots of humour, I'd love to hear about your plans or experiences during the lessons.
I know the ways to BREAK language BARRIERS and make you enjoy the process of studying.
NOTE: Although I have a lot of teaching practice, I might be quite FLEXIBLE in terms of time, so if you're interested, please contact me via italki to let me know about your availability.My teaching material
