Kids don't need lectures about "good money habits." They need to feel what money does.
While adults debate finances at home, kids are already using money, without actually understanding how.

In this course, we learn by playing. And by thinking.
We'll explore together:
✓ Simulate a real shop: handle actual money, practice spending and saving, discover what it feels like
✓ Create a personal budget: not boring spreadsheets, but visuals, games, and real challenges
✓ Ask the real questions: Need vs. want. Why save? How do people earn? What's debt?
✓ Discover how systems work: Banks, loans, digital money, and financial security
✓ Think like an entrepreneur: What services can I offer? How do I create value? How do I turn an idea into money?

Why this is different:
Most kids think "money is complicated." This class shows them that money is a tool, not a mystery, not something to fear.
And, more importantly: that they can control it.

What they take home:
A personal budgeting system they actually understand. Answers to questions they've been asking. And the mindset: money is a means, not an end.

Format: Online or Barcelona | 60-min sessions | Small group or one-on-one

For curious kids who ask questions about money.

My students start speaking in 3 months! This is all thanks to the communicative method I use during lessons (I speak 30-40%, I listen 70-60%). Not only do they memorize new vocabulary and grammar better, but they learn to construct sentences independently from the very first lessons, and subsequently, to converse with confidence.

I teach: English, Spanish, and Russian.

- Communicate with native speakers
- Prepare for exams (Russian state exams, IELTS, certifications)
- Participate in the Language Olympiad and win prizes
- Improve your academic performance
- Prepare for university admission in Russia or abroad
- Travel without language barriers
- Improve your professional performance in international companies

Are you ready to unlock the Russian language? The secret to success lies in a strong foundation. In this lesson, we will focus on the most important part of starting any language: Phonetics and Pronunciation.

What makes this lesson special? I don’t use boring textbooks. Instead, I use exclusive presentations with rich illustrative materials. These visual aids help you create mental associations, making it much easier to memorize the Cyrillic alphabet and complex sounds. What we will do together:

The Alphabet & Beyond: We’ll cover the letters, but more importantly, the sounds they make in real speech.

Articulation Training: As a professional philologist, I will show you exactly how to produce those "tricky" Russian sounds like 'ы', 'ж', 'щ' or the difference between hard and soft consonants.

Visual Learning: My bright and clear slides will guide you through every step, ensuring you don’t feel overwhelmed.

First Words: You will leave the lesson knowing how to read basic words and introduce yourself.
Who is this for?

For absolute beginners: no prior knowledge required.

Materials provided: I provide all necessary materials: a copy of the presentation, links to video or audio materials, and homework (if you choose to complete it).

Teaching Russian is both natural and motivating for me, as it is my native language. I already have solid experience in teaching languages remotely and I particularly enjoy supporting students in their progress, adapting lessons to their objectives and pace.
Joining a language school would allow me to get involved in a structured professional environment, to share my passion for languages and to continue to develop my teaching skills.
