Certified teacher and linguist with many years of teaching experience As a trained linguist with many years of experience, I’ve had the joy of teaching students from all walks of life. From Russian and German at a Japanese university to shaping a Russian coursebook and teaching across Germany, Russia, and Japan, my journey has been all about helping people unlock new languages. I’m known for my patience and love for making even the trickiest language rules—like grammar—easy to understand. Whether you’re stuck on a word or curious about culture, I’m here to guide you. But what I enjoy most is watching my students’ progress (I know it sounds a bit cheezy :)) —but it’s the best part of teaching, knowing that every step forward brings a new sense of achievement.
