My name is Malika. I am from Kazakhstan. My native languages are russian and kazakh.

I learned Japanese language as well as economics, politics, history and culture, etc. Went to Japan on behalf of short-term exchange program MIRAI.
While Junior year I got interested in Korea and started to learn Korean. Afterwards I studied in Seoul for 1 term.
Recently started to learn Greek, Turkish, Farsi and German.

Me as a Teacher
Being a native russian and kazakh speaker which are two really different languages from different language families I have got not only knowledge, but also sense of what might be a problem spot for most of my students. Also knowing other languages like English, Korean, Japanese and others let me be more productive with the students.
I am very patient with students, but I am also a demanding teacher (in a good sense).
My lessons & teaching style
With each lesson I try to speak russian more to a student, to the extent of their understanding and comfortable level of difficulty.
Besides grammar, which is must of course, we focus on "real" language, using video materials, vlogs, articles, news, songs.
Doing your homework makes a great deal of success in the learning process (especially w/russian). There is a time-limit in our classes, so I would really like it if the students used our time together more productive, by doing their studies at home.
I have got a wide range of materials, including short cutouts from russian series, movies, vlogs and other sources of the language.

Malika is wonderful teacher. She reminds me of Russian grammar we have learned all the time, which confuses me a lot. I can see my progress with my Russian thanks to teacher Malika. 😀

Malika is a kind and patient teacher. Russian is definitely challenging, but she always explains the concepts well and the lessons are very engaging! I'm really looking forward to further lessons.
