About Me

Hi Learners! My name is Anna. I'm a qualified English and German teacher. I'm an M.A. linguist (Languages and Literature), got a Ph.D. in Germanic Languages, and a B.A. in Methodology of Teaching.
I'm a university and a private tutor, teach various academic courses, and conduct one-on-one online sessions with students of different ages - from junior to adult.
I taught students from 15 different countries.
Besides my main passion - Teaching, I also love traveling and meeting new people, swimming, hiking, psychology and coaching, reading, and watching movies.Me as a Teacher
My teaching experience comprises 16 years: university tutor and a private language trainer one-on-one and in-group classes.
I taught around 1000 students worldwide and helped them pass international exams, be more confident in speaking, get ready to write an essay or gain linguistic skills, and succeed in academic studies.
I'm passionate about my profession, love it immensely, and devote myself to what I do helping my students master their language skills. I'm always in search of the most efficient methods, techniques, and ways to make it better for my students, so I'm sure the best way you can teach someone is when you don't give up learning yourself all the time.My lessons & teaching style
The most important things in learning a language are regularity and planning.
I always define your needs and level and tailor a step-by-step plan on how to reach your goals taking student's personality and purposes into account.
I have developed my own methods and techniques of teaching and blended them with Communicative and Discovery approaches as well as with Language Immersion Method and TPR (Total Physical Response) method that allowed me to give my students interesting and interactive lessons.
The key point is that I make it simple, concrete, clear, usable, and fun, of course.My teaching material

I have been working with Anna for a quite long time. Learning a new language can be challenging, but with the guidance and expertise of Anna, it become an enjoyable and rewarding experience.
Anna demonstrates a deep understanding of the language. Her proficiency in both grammar and vocabulary is evident from the very beginning. She is able to explain complex concepts in a way that was easy to understand, which makes learning German less intimidating.
Anna is patient and encouraging. Learning a new language can be frustrating at times, but she always maintaines a positive and motivating attitude.
The lessons are well-structured and engaging. We covered a variety of topics, from grammar and vocabulary to real-world conversational skills.
