I was born and grew up in Russia. I'm a linguist and ESL teacher by education; I got my BA and MA in Russia. I have been teaching English and Russian (ESL and RSL) for 15 years. I love teaching and it's my pleasure to watch my students grow in their language skills. I have experience teaching groups of students (5-10) as well as individuals. So far I've had a privilege of teaching students from the USA, Germany, England,Switzerland, South Africa, Russia and Ukraine. Needless to say Russian is my native language and I'm fluent in English.
