About Me

Hey!
My name is Sveta. I was born in Siberia and lived there for many years. Now I live in Kaliningrad - the most not Russian city in Russia.
At an university I studied , psychology, philology, linguistics, Russian and foreign literature, and then tourism and hotel management. I also have a diploma as a teacher of Russian as a foreign language.
I love traveling! Study history and culture of different countries, communicate with people. That’s why I love being a teacher. My students tell me about their country, and I tell them about Russia.Me as a Teacher
I am very responsible and always carefully prepare for each lesson.
There is always a friendly atmosphere in my class and no pressure! It is important for me that every student feels comfortable.My lessons & teaching style
In my lessons, we talk on a variety of topics, watch videos, listen to music and discuss art and literature. I think the only way to truly understand a language is through culture. But, of course, we study Russian grammar, modern vocabulary and even Russian slang.My teaching material
