About Me

I am a French and Russian teacher. I am originally from Russia, but I now live in Providence, Rhode Island. I love learning and teaching languages. I use the communicative approach in teaching foreign languages. No matter what the student's aims are, I am there to help them succeed. I am a student-centered teacher so I am in charge of the structure of the class, the material I provide and the necessary corrections, but I also commit to create a free zone for my students to express themselves. That means that speaking practice is always in first place for me. I work through new themes and play different communicative situations with my students to let them use the things they learn and hone their skills in a fun way. At the moment, I speak three languages fluently, and I am learning Spanish and Portuguese. I am a very friendly, open-minded person, and I love working with people from around the world.
