Having graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Political Science and a Master's degree in Conflict, Security and Development from the University of Sussex, England, I have developed an excellent command of English through my studies, professional experiences and numerous stays in English-speaking environments.

I offer English lessons for all levels, from beginner to advanced, tailored to your needs and goals. Whether you want to improve for school or university, enhance your conversation skills, strengthen your grammar and vocabulary, prepare for an exam, or delve deeper into a specific area of English, I will guide you with a personalized and practical approach.

I can also help you develop your fluency and confidence in speaking, through conversation exercises tailored to your level and interests.

Currently on sabbatical, I have a very flexible schedule and can easily adapt to your availability. I offer online lessons and can also travel to your home, whenever possible.

My goal is to help you progress effectively, at your own pace, in a motivating and supportive atmosphere.

I offer my services as a teacher with 19 years of experience.
I am a native speaker Russian and have been giving private lessons in Russian to adults. I worked for a Russian school and for a language institute in the Hague, the Netherlands. In 2016 I moved to Switzerland and now I am teaching ladies in the International Women's Club of Nyon.
I love teaching and always enjoy the lessons together with my students. During 19 years of teaching I have developed some unique methods which can effectively help students in studying the complex Russian grammar. I have tested a lot of study books for different levels and have chosen the best ones for my lessons. From the first lesson I put an emphasis on speaking and conversation.

Hello everyone and welcome to my English and or German lessons taught in group. I organise English and German lessons for children and teenagers and separately adult English group lessons (beginners to advanced). For children and teenagers, interactive activities are used as a way to motivate them, help them remember what they have learned in class and make sure they will be able to apply their language skills in real life context.
For the adults lessons, depending on what the students are willing to learn, we can have discussions based on the news, some grammar, writing... I am open to any suggestions, just tell me your needs and I am going to adapt the next lessons for you. If you wish to invite your friends and make a group with them, just let me know and I will allocate you a time slot.

For private English lessons, please have a look at my other advertisements. The German lessons are usually for beginners/ intermediate (exceptionally advanced levels in German can be organised only if there is a high-demand).

Don't hesitate to contact me should you have further questions. It would be a huge pleasure to integrate you in one of my classes. :-) Lessons usually last 50 minutes.

Class Description: Specialist English Tuition (TYLEC Certified) | Ages 5–16
Elevate your child’s English with a TYLEC-qualified specialist dedicated to academic excellence and natural fluency. Unlike standard tutoring, my approach is built on certified methodology specifically designed for the cognitive development of children and teenagers.
A Tailored Pedagogical Approach:
• Early Immersion (Age 5+): We build native-like intuition through high-energy, play-based immersion. I focus on phonics, active listening, and building the confidence to speak without hesitation.
• Skill Consolidation (Age 10+): I bridge the gap between "classroom English" and fluency. We focus on grammar precision, creative writing, and preparation for Cambridge Young Learners assessments to track measurable progress.
• Academic Mastery (Age 16+): I provide rigorous coaching for high-stakes milestones, including IB, IGCSE, and Maturité exams. We focus on advanced rhetoric, essay structure, and the critical analysis required for top-tier university entry.
Why My Methodology Works:
With a focus on the international community in Geneva, I provide a bridge between local school requirements and global standards. Every lesson is meticulously planned to match your child’s unique learning style, ensuring that English becomes an asset, not a burden.

I believe that having the opportunity to learn is something we should make the most of. As students, we do not always feel motivated to study, but learning and developing good working habits can open so many doors for the future. I would love to help children not only understand their subjects better, but also gain confidence, perseverance and, hopefully, a genuine interest in learning.

I am still a student myself, so I understand the difficulties and frustrations that can come with studying. I want my lessons to be adapted to each student, their needs and the way they learn best. I am flexible with the subjects and topics they would like to work on, and my goal is to create a positive environment where they feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes and improving at their own pace.

For me, tutoring is not just about getting better grades, but about helping students realise that the effort they put in today can give them many more opportunities tomorrow.

In my 60-minute classes, we say goodbye to boring textbook memorization and the frustrating feeling of "I understand it, but I can't speak it." Instead, I focus heavily on speaking, active listening, and building real confidence. I adapt my teaching style to exactly what your child needs. Whether your teenager needs serious preparation for the IB, SAT, or IELTS, or your younger child just needs to improve their conversational fluency by chatting about their favorite movies, science, or daily life, I tailor every single lesson to them.

I provide all the custom learning materials so you don't have to worry about a thing. I bring the energy, the exam expertise, and the patience to every session. If you're looking for a mentor who can help your child speak naturally, improve their grades, and build unshakeable confidence, I would love to meet you both for a first lesson to see if we're a great fit!
