Certified TEFL teacher with 4 years teaching experience. Living in Africa has helped me to interact with people from different countries. I have been teaching languages for about 3 years. I had a lot of international students from all over the world. I am very fun,friendly and outgoing and always encourage my students to speak as much as possible and entirely lose their fear of making a mistake (they are an essential part of learning any language!). We can do casual classes, where we mostly speak about various topics, or if you need to prepare for assessments such as IELTS and CAE, we can do speaking in the exam format. In the previous years I have prepared several students to do these exams and they all passed with flying colors.

OVER 25 YEARS OF TEACHING With inspiration comes motivation. From motivation springs action. I’d like to inspire you on your way. I’m extremely passionate about teaching English. I use visual cards, placards. For instance, the other day we studied personalities and we made a map of characters from ‘Five Feet Apart’ which is a new movie based on a book and teenagers enjoyed it a lot! So we made a visual picture similar to one on the cover of the book and put there all new personalities together with main characters from the film. Regarding teaching children, I know many English songs and rhymes, which we learn by heart to better remember vocabulary and understand English grammar. https://www.youtube.com/playlist

400+ LESSONS TAUGHT | Tech Job Interview Coach for Developers | Fluent in Russian and Bengali - I coach developers, QA engineers, DevOps and analysts through English job interviews — the screening call, the behavioural round, explaining your own architecture out loud, and the salary conversation at the end. 400+ lessons taught, 5.0 rating. What makes me different: when you get stuck, I can explain in Russian or Bengali — then we go straight back into English. No dead air, no dictionary, no pretending you understood. Three tracks: — Tech interviews (flagship): STAR and XYZ answers built from your real projects, mock interviews with written feedback, system-design narration, recovery phrases for when a word vanishes mid-sentence. — AI at work: explaining AI projects to non-technical managers, demos, prompts that aren’t vague, and the “how do you use AI in your work?” interview question. — Everyday English & Bangla: conversation, pronunciation, heritage speakers reconnecting with family. My students: engineers from Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Georgia, Poland, Germany, Brazil and Colombia. Several are mid-interview-process right now; some have 30–40 lessons with me. How lessons run: you talk, I shadow-correct without breaking your flow, and you leave with language you can use the same week. Structure where you need it, no drills for the sake of drills. I keep a small roster of regular students, so new interview-prep slots open as students get hired.

Language tutoring/English for Corporates/Phrasal verbs/FCE Let me give you three reasons why you’ll enjoy having a class with me: First, I speak many languages, which means I’ve been a student many times myself. I understand how it feels to learn something new and know exactly what you need to succeed. Second, I have experience in self-learning languages. This experience taught me what is truly important when acquiring new skills, and I can guide you in focusing on what really works. Third, I am a fun and positive teacher. I love creating a relaxed, enjoyable atmosphere in my classes because students learn faster and feel more confident when they enjoy the process. Meeting new people and helping them grow is always a pleasure for me.

Build Confidence, Fluency and a Natural American Accent with a Pro 🇺🇸 Want to speak English with confidence—so you feel relaxed and engaged? I’ll help you express yourself naturally, clearly in real conversations. Whether you’re preparing for an interview, a presentation, life in the US or UK, or want to stop translating in your head, our lessons will focus on the English you actually need. Hello from Hollywood! 🎬 I’m Peter, a professional actor, director, and accent coach. I’m a native English speaker from California and studied English and Acting at UCLA. In LA, I’ve coached actors to refine their accents and prepare for TV and Film. I now bring that same attention to pronunciation and natural speech to my students. Teaching runs in my family—my mother is an English teacher, my father has a PhD in physics. I taught SAT preparation to Chinese students in New York, then taught English with Berlitz in Santa Monica and Puerto Rico and at ELS Language Centers. My lessons are flexible and very interactive. You’ll speak a lot, while I correct mistakes naturally and explain them. We'll focus on conversation, grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, accent reduction, interviews, or presentations. I’m also a language learner, having studied French, Spanish, Russian, and some Chinese, so I understand how difficult it can be to sound natural in another language. Let’s make your English clear, confident, and natural! 🇺🇸 (Я говорю по-русски на среднем уровне. Это помогает моим русским студентам учиться быстро и легко. ישראלים מוזמנים בברכה, 我非常喜欢教中国学生讲英语。

Преподаватель французского и английского с красным дипломом и 10 летним стажем Если вы приходите в зал с запросом накачать пресс, а ваш тренер просит вас приседать - с таким человеком результата не будет, потому что он не понимает, что нужно делать и для чего. Примерно такая ситуация происходит в большинстве случаев с репетиторами. Поэтому я, как преподаватель, точно прописываю план каждого урока и конечную цель, чтобы изучение не превращалось в десятилетия чтения текстов BBC и просмотров роликов с YouTube. Средний срок постановки произношения - месяц. Средний срок чистки грамматики - месяц. Английский/Французский с нуля до В2 при регулярных занятиях по часу 2-3 раза в неделю и выполнении д/з - год.

    I have been taking conversation classes with Stephanie for two years and as a result recently received my C1 certificate in the IELTS exam. I have now moved on to taking her Business English classes, which I also highly recommend to anyone who wants to improve their English for career advancement in business or STEM.

    I find my lessons with Annette extremely useful for practising the speaking component of the OET. We manage to complete two scenarios in half an hour, and I can see that I am gradually improving over time. I really enjoy working with her, and I appreciate that she often extends the lesson by a few minutes to allow us to finish reviewing the corrections or to ask me whether I need any further advice on how to improve my OET performance.

His teaching approach is ideal: lessons are well organised, and he always explains things clearly with practical examples. What I appreciate most is that he corrects my mistakes immediately and explains the reason behind each correction, which has helped me improve my writing and speaking much faster. I feel comfortable and confident in his lessons, and I can really see my progress. I would definitely recommend him to anyone preparing for the IELTS

He carefully evaluated my performance and shared valuable tips that helped me improve and achieve my desired result.

    Under Naphan’s guidance, I learned how to speak English in a relaxed way—no rush, no pressure, no particular goal. Just chatting, going wherever the conversation takes us, and talking about whatever comes to mind. And suddenly, I realized I could speak more than I ever thought I could. I’ve come to understand that my problem was never really my mouth. It was my mindset. The more relaxed I am, the more naturally the words flow. Sometimes, the less you try to achieve, the more you gain. Thank you Naphan.

    I started Business English lessons with Joanna in October through the “Let’s Talk Corporate” programme, and the course has been tailored to my job from the very first session. She took the time to understand my daily work as a database engineer in the utilities sector, then built a twelve unit course around real topics such as metering applications, Oracle PL/SQL, billing logic and system architecture. Every lesson comes with conversation cards featuring realistic role plays between colleagues, with key grammar structures highlighted in context, vocabulary lists translated into Italian and useful professional phrases. A checklist of phrases to use during each session keeps the practice focused and measurable. Joanna is receptive, encouraging and always open to feedback, adapting the lessons whenever I suggest improvements. I would highly recommend her to any professional looking for Business English that is truly relevant to their work.

Frequently asked questions

How do I find an English teacher who also speaks Russian?

Use the “Also speaks” filter on italki to see English teachers who speak Russian. Read their profiles, watch their introduction videos, and check student reviews to find the right match for your learning goals.

How much do English lessons for Russian speakers cost?

Prices depend on the teacher’s experience, qualifications, and lesson type. You can find English teachers starting from $5 to $50+ per hour, and many offer trial lessons at a discounted rate so you can try a teacher before you commit.

Do I need to know any English before booking a lesson?

No. Because your teacher also speaks Russian, they can explain grammar and vocabulary in your own language, which makes starting from zero much easier. Complete beginners are welcome.

What are the benefits of learning English with a teacher who speaks Russian?

A teacher who understands your native language knows the mistakes Russian speakers typically make and can explain difficult points clearly. You learn faster, stay motivated, and can always ask questions in Russian when you get stuck.

How do I schedule English lessons on italki?

Create a free italki account, choose a teacher you like, select a lesson, and pick a time from the teacher’s calendar. You can manage all your lessons from your dashboard.
