Over mij
italki leerkracht sinds 27 Mar 2025InterestsArtPets & AnimalsMuziekReizenReading
My name is Mikhail, but my friends call me Mike. I've been studying linguistics and foreign languages for many years, and I've been using the Italki platform for about four years now. I'm a native Russian speaker, born and raised in Orel—a city not far from Moscow, near Belgorod.
Currently, my wife and I live in the beautiful city of Saint Petersburg, where we enjoy nature, ride our bicycles, and work remotely as freelancers. In my free time, I play musical instruments such as the piano and guitar, and I also sing—a passion that comes from my years of playing in a rock band. Additionally, I love literature and am an avid reader who reads every day.Ik als leerkracht
I'm an avid language learner myself, achieving outstanding results in my IELTS examination with a band 8.0, which is a threshold to the C2 level. I know what approaches work best when learning foreign languages. I adore conversations and am a good listener—don’t worry, I'll always find a topic and create a welcoming atmosphere in class, where you can express any viewpoint without fear of being judged or laughed at.Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
My teaching style is mainly communicative. Being in a student's shoes, I can say that it is the best strategy to learn a foreign language—through communicative scenarios, role-plays, and gamification! I truly believe that even adult students can enthusiastically engage in language-based games that help improve memorization of studied vocabulary.
My classes always start with small talk, where students can share something that has happened during the week or discuss any news. We then smoothly transition into discussing topics that interest my students or begin a structured lesson, depending on their preferences and needs.Mijn lesmateriaal
