Biografía:
As a certified teacher, I have the linguistic knowledge needed to explain the unique features of the Russian language, such as its system of cases, verbs of motion, differences between animate and inanimate objects, variations in verb tenses, and more. I ensure better understanding by providing relevant comparisons to English. I offer: Conversational Russian; Russian for beginners; Intensive Russian; General Russian.
Mi metodología de enseñanza:
Mi experiencia docente:
My teaching experience is 14 years, and I teach students (over 15 years old) and adults. I teach Russian through practical examples of its usage and in comparison with the English language. In other words, I will never require you to simply memorize a table of endings without understanding how you can apply this knowledge. We first explore situations where you can apply these concepts, and then you learn the endings, but with a clear understanding of where and how to apply what you are currently learning. ***Please, note*** If you are not a total beginner and claim to have a certain level of expertise or "some knowledge" and would like to continue your studying, tests are a must before the trial lesson and during the trial lesson.
Mi experiencia fuera de la enseñanza:
I began my career as a journalist, working for a local newspaper for 2 years. I then 're-qualified' as a graphic designer for 15 years. In recent years, I have been involved in both teaching and design simultaneously, as both were based on freelance work. Now, I have transitioned to teaching as my sole profession.
