Advert description
I am an experienced Russian and Ukrainian language tutor based in the United Kingdom, with over 5 years of teaching experience since 2019. I am a native speaker of both Russian and Ukrainian, which allows me to teach not only the language itself but also its cultural nuances, real-life usage, and natural pronunciation.
My teaching approach is student-centered and tailored to individual goals. I work with learners of all levels — from complete beginners to advanced students — and adapt my methods depending on whether the student needs the language for everyday communication, work, travel, exams, or cultural integration.
I combine communicative methods with structured grammar explanations, focusing on practical speaking skills while building a strong grammatical foundation. Lessons are interactive and dynamic, using real-life dialogues, authentic materials, and modern resources to help students gain confidence and fluency. I pay special attention to pronunciation, listening comprehension, and expanding active vocabulary.
I believe that learning a language should be both effective and enjoyable. I create a supportive and motivating environment where students feel comfortable making mistakes and progressing at their own pace. My goal is not only to teach the language, but to help students think and communicate naturally in Russian or Ukrainian.
In addition to language instruction, I often introduce elements of history, culture, and traditions, which helps students better understand the context of the language and use it more authentically.
