English classes with an American-born Russian and Ukrainian Speaker !

From 21.84 € /h

I am a native English and Russian speaker! I was born in America, and my parents are Russian-speaking immigrants. I taught my mother to speak English. I live between New York and Kyiv. Together, you and I will practice English in conversation, talking about life, movies and art.

I am a professional writer, and will help you practice English by writing in it. Your homework will be to write, and then I will ask you to read out loud your writing! I've taken many foreign language classes as a student, so I understand the frustrations of being in a class without adequate practice.

About Me

I am a professional writer.

I work as an assistant on film scripts. I also write as a ghostwriter, so I hold conversations with clients, record the conversations, and then synthesize them into essays.

I live between Kyiv, where I have an art gallery, and just finished a novella that will be translated into Ukrainian. I am currently in New York finishing a film script with my colleague.

My mother and father speak Russian, and I taught my mother English. I would love to practice your English with you!

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

English is the quintessential global language, used almost everywhere and in everyday life. It's becoming increasingly mainstream, especially among children, thanks to memes like 6-7. English-language videos go much more viral on TikTok and Instagram, naturally raising the question of whether speaking the language is advantageous. Many claim to be able to speak English simply by watching short videos, but ultimately, a deeper understanding is crucial. I studied English from third to tenth grade at a grammar school and consistently earned top marks. I've always been passionate about languages, having grown up bilingual at home, speaking Vietnamese and German, and learning three additional foreign languages at school: English, French, and Spanish. I would be thrilled if you'd give my English course a try ;)
