About Me
italki teacher since Oct 11, 2024Interest topicPets & AnimalsArtFilms & TV SeriesTravelFood
I was born and raised in Siberia, but always felt like seeing the world. In 2014, I took two years to follow my aspiration to travel. It was an amazing life lesson and I came back home a 'citizen of the world'.
One of my biggest passions is art, so I make jewelry on the side. I also love spending time with my family and friends, cooking, going on long walks and hikes, and gardening in our country house. Also I have a very sweet corgi puppy and we spend a lot of time togetherMe as a Teacher
As a communication specialist, I focus on giving my students a chance to learn how to express their ideas first, and then we work together on accuracy.
I absolutely love teaching because it gives me an opportunity to meet different people from different countries and cultures I wouldn't have met otherwise. In my classes, the time always flies by and leaves us wanting more.My lessons & teaching style
Since I have been teaching for 13 years, I integrate different approaches, but mostly use a communicative approach. I like to find a reason why my students want to learn a language and use it as a motivation for when they are feeling disheartened.
I cater the lessons to both my students' strengths and their weaknesses, and always take into account their interests. We laugh, make jokes, and have a good time while learning a language.My teaching material

Диплом о профессиональной переподготовке - Учебный центр русского языка при МГУ - 2023This was an online 350-hours course that took 3 months. It consisted of seven big chapters where I had to do a lot of reading, listening to lectures and doing assignments. It was helpful to learn grammar rules in more details because as a native speaker, it's hard to acknowledge all of them.

CELTA - University of Cambridge - 2013I took a month-long course where we learnt how to teach English to adults. The course consisted of theoretical and practical classes. As part of the course, I was required to teach 8 classes and was rated highly.
Also, there were four written assignments and in the end I passed with flying colours.
