Hi!
If you want to improve your English, to be more confident while speaking, to fix all your grammar mistakes or just to learn English through watching your favorite movies, I will be glad to help you!
I am a professional C2 teacher of English and I am extremely happy to be able to help learners in their pursuit. I have been working as a university teacher for 13 years and I have a PhD in Linguistics.
Me as a Teacher
I have a wide experience in teaching English on-line and in class. It is the most fascinating thing for me to share my love for foreign languages and cultures with others.My lessons & teaching style
I believe each student needs personal approach and our lessons will be planned to meet your needs and interests. My classes are completely customized, I’m ready to adapt to your personal goals, issues and problems. Before booking a lesson, feel free to send me a message and I can prepare something specific for you to work on and to practice. If you want me to, I would be glad to send you some homework after each class that you do in your free time and next time we can check it all together. I believe that speaking a foreign language is just a skill that you can develop, nothing is impossible. I would be glad to help with all the struggles you might have!My teaching material

I think we are very lucky that we found Elena and she agreed to teach my mom English. My mom is an elderly lady that learns English from level 0. She didn’t even believe she can learn a new language at her age (70+), but Elena has found a teaching style that works. Elena is an excellent teacher and is a very nice person too.

Elena is an incredible teacher! My Russian has progressed rapidly studying under her. By supplementing textbook work with conversation, my vocabulary fits my communication needs best. Additionally, she always takes the time to ensure I fully understand each topic before moving on, so I never feel overwhelmed or behind. Thank you so much for everything, and I'm so excited to keep learning!
