Hi everyone!
My name is Faina. I'm a language teacher, musician, coffee nerd, and lifelong language learner.
Currently based in Berlin and learning my fifth language, I bring a fresh perspective to language learning.
Teaching is a big part of my life. Aside from languages, I also teach music and drumming and run a blog dedicated to speciality coffee.
My interests span from art and music to science and society, and I’m always excited to connect with people who share a love for exploring different cultures.
Meine Kreationen
Ich als Lehrkraft
✏️ Since 2020, I’ve helped students reach their language goals with a personalized approach rooted in psycholinguistics and a deep understanding of how people learn. My qualification as a teacher supports this, allowing me to apply research and experience to every lesson.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
✏️ I believe that the more personalised language you use is, the more likely you are to remember it. Each session is unique and tailored for you. I create personalised PDF-presentations filled with authentic, up-to-date language, so you can focus on what really matters: connecting with others. We’ll avoid outdated textbooks and dive into real, lively language that feels relevant and memorable.
I’m not just here to teach—I’m here to be your partner in the journey. Our lessons are designed to be relaxed and engaging, with a friendly atmosphere where you can feel at ease and confident. Many of my students become friends, and together, we celebrate every milestone, no matter how big or small.

From my experience as a language learner on italki, only some teachers actually spend extra time outside of lessons helping their students, such as sharing material of the topics you are learning, reviewing homework, or just answering questions that, as a student, you may have suddenly, but Faina always goes the extra mile in her lessons with great kindness, positivity, humility, and versatility.✨
I have been learning Russian with Faina for almost 4 months and I am more than happy and satisfied to work with her!😊Faina is an amazing and outstanding person, teacher and study partner. 🌻 ¡5 de 5 estrellas! ¡Muchas gracias, querida Faina! 💐
