About Me

Hello everyone! My name is Helga. I'm a highly qualified, experienced American English and Russian coach. I hold a Ph.D. in Educational Research from the Sapienza University of Rome and a TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) certificate from Arizona State University.
Me as a Teacher
My students say that I'm very engaging as a teacher and make even tricky grammar topics fun and immersive.My lessons & teaching style
I teach teenage and adult students who want to use language as a communication tool. I offer well-structured professional lessons and provide students with all the necessary materials. In each class, we take a particular lexical and grammar topic and practice it, developing different types of skills with emphasis on speaking.
I'm looking forward to meeting you in my class!

Another fantastic lesson! Helga is a gifted teacher. I have never been very good at learning languages, but I feel I've made more progress with Helga in a few weeks than I have in months of studying with other teachers and/or resources.
