Unlock Your Potential: Professional English Coaching for Ukrainian & Russian Speakers
Are you looking to improve your English but find it difficult to explain your doubts in a foreign language? As a native speaker of Ukrainian and Russian with a professional command of English, I provide a unique learning experience tailored specifically for the Slavic-speaking community in Brussels.
Why choose these lessons?
Because I speak your native languages, we don’t waste time. I can explain complex English grammar, nuances, and "Belgian" administrative terms quickly and clearly in Ukrainian or Russian, allowing you to progress much faster than in a traditional "English-only" environment.
What we can focus on:
• For Professionals: Job interview preparation, refining your CV, and mastering "Office English" for the Brussels corporate or NGO world.
• For Daily Life: Practical conversation for administrative appointments (commune, bank, school) and navigating life in Belgium.
• For Students & Children: Comprehensive school support and homework help. I am available during the "Wednesday afternoon" window and after-school hours to help students boost their grades and confidence.
• Customized Learning: Whether you are at a Beginner (A1) or Intermediate (B2) level, I adapt the material to your personal goals and pace.
Location & Flexibility:
I am available every weekday from 14:00 onwards. Lessons can take place online: Via Zoom or Google Meet for maximum convenience.
Let’s bridge the language gap together and help you feel at home in Brussels. Contact me to schedule your first session!

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).

Russian literature is captivating, complex, beautiful... But also essential for understanding Russian language, culture and even its current situation. As Yevtushenko said, "In Russia a poet is more than just a poet". And this is why learning more about Russian literature is essential. As a scholar in the area of Russian studies, I've written quite a few articles on that matter, and I'm happy to share my expertise with you!
