Sobre Mim
Professor da italki desde 20 de Feb de 2014Tópico de interesseEscritaLeituraViagemArteCiências
I’m Lana, a linguist and language teacher with 19+ years of experience. I’ve taught students from many countries and previously taught language courses at Chiang Mai University in Thailand.
I live an international, travel-based lifestyle, moving between different countries and cultures, and languages have always been at the center of my life.
I help adults speak English or Russian with confidence for work, travel, hobbies, and international life.
I’m also fascinated by how the brain learns languages, so my lessons combine real conversation with insights from neuroscience.
My goal is simple: help you stop translating and start thinking in the language.
Book your first class!Minha atuação como professor
After many years of teaching, what still surprises me is that moment when a student suddenly pauses and says, “Wait… I’m actually speaking.”
In my classes, we think, discuss, question, and sometimes even argue a little. Language becomes a tool for expressing ideas, not just completing exercises.
I like explaining things clearly and simply, especially grammar that once felt confusing. Curiosity is always welcome in my lessons.
Students often tell me they relax and forget they’re “studying” because the conversation becomes natural.
I care about thoughtful discussion, structure, genuine progress, and helping you feel comfortable using the language in your own voice. Minhas aulas e estilo de ensino
My lessons focus on real communication. I want you actually to use the language, not just study it.
We work on speaking, useful vocabulary, and grammar, explained clearly and logically. I ask a lot of questions and encourage you to express your ideas, even if your sentences aren’t perfect yet.
Conversations often grow naturally and can move into interesting topics like travel, culture, psychology, books, art, science, or everyday life.
Lessons are adapted to your goals, level, and interests. I teach adults only and create a relaxed space where mistakes are part of learning.
If you’re ready to improve your English or Russian, book a lesson and let’s begin.Meu material de ensino

I'm so glad I found Lana — she's one of the best teachers I've ever met. Her lessons are clear, engaging, and well-structured. She's friendly, fun, and easy to talk to, which makes every class feel relaxed and enjoyable. At the same time, Lana is professional and always encouraging, creating a space where I feel safe to speak and make mistakes. I already feel more confident speaking, and every class helps me grow. Lana truly has all the qualities that make a great teacher.

As always, Lana is an incredible resource and a fantastic aid to my Russian Language skills. She is always so bright and cheerful and ready to tackle any challenge with a smile (and a laugh!) I never feel discouraged when leaving our lessons and always look forward to working with her again.

Lana is such a great language instructor! She’s fun, very responsible, and knows how to keep her students motivated. She also understands the difficulty of learning a new language, and I was never afraid to ask questions in her class. I highly recommend Lana to any Russian learners!!

Lana is an excellent teacher. She always comes to the lessons on time, in good spirits and with excellent content to learn from. She pushes me to challenge myself and is very patient. My Russian has improved dramatically in a short time because of Lana. I highly recommend her to anyone wanting to improve their language skills.
