Hello, my name is Kateryna. I will be glad to become your Spanish teacher. I also speak and can teach Ukrainian, Russian, English and Dutch :) I like to learn new things, especially languages. And also to share knowledge and study methods. I write poems and prose, draw abstractions. I believe in the perfection of the world and a bright future. I have 3 years of experience as a teacher: 1 year of experience teaching Spanish online; 2 years of experience in private online English lessons; 7 months of offline English language teaching experience for Ukrainian refugees in the Netherlands. Interesting and fun Spanish lessons for children and adults who remain children at heart. We watch cartoons, listen to songs, read poetry and prose. We analyze what is happening there, we speak out loud a lot, put pronunciation, do interesting exercises. We also sing a lot - because this is the best way to learn a new language. I also arrange a practice with a native Ecuadorian. I myself lived in Ecuador and Spain for a long time, and I practice using the language with native speakers every day.
Nice and cheerful Ukrainian lessons from a Ukrainian woman. The emphasis is mainly on the speaking part, because speaking is the goal of language. Grammar sticks by itself :) We sing songs, watch cartoons, movies, have fun chatting :) All lessons are individual, we study what will be interesting for you. Free soul, poet, writer, artist. I speak Ukrainian, Russian, Spanish, English and a little Dutch. I believe that everything is always perfect and I find the positive side in people. We can all do anything, the main thing is to have the desire. A proponent of the Hawaiian philosophy of ho'oponopono and a positive outlook. Let's move together towards a bright future :)

I offer online lessons for students from all over the world (primarily in French), teaching English and Russian.

Russian language classes for kids and adults with a certified tutor (mother tongue)
1. Russian for ADULTS 🇬🇧 If your goal is to become fluent in English, these are the lessons to take. Each lesson will contain > - Speaking & Listening part with Russian skills necessary for descriptions, comparisons, explanations, etc. - Russian used in common social situations, like inviting, giving advice, talking about movies, etc. - Essential Russian grammar, including verbs conjugation, cases, tenses, quantifiers, and more - Hundreds of native vocabulary and expressions needed for fluent conversation - Russian knowledge for challenging things, like writing emails, giving presentations, and debating, etc. - Practice exercises to help you start thinking in Russian and improve your Russian speaking habits - Much more! If you are serious about getting really good at Russian, your next step is simple: Sign up for the entire course! Se hai una idea seria di migliorare il russo, il tuo next step è semplice: iscriviti il corso! 🇮🇹 Le lezioni in cui si articola il corso intero seguono la struttura > - Dialoghi che sviluppano una abilità di costruire descrizioni, comparatività, spiegazioni e così via : ascolto e pratica come parlare meglio. - I materiali didattici e l'approcio sono organizzati per lo studio del russo in molti situazioni sociali: inviti, suggerimenti, conversazioni riguardo a film o musica, etc. - Grammatica d'uso: la teoria degli argomenti neccessari e adeguati al'livello del studente, gli esercizi vari durante la lezione e come compito. - Gli esercizi con l'approccio di farti pensare in russo. - Molto di più! 2. RUSSIAN for KIDS This original course is designed to develop spoken Russian in bilingual children. If your child was born abroad or moved to a non-Russian-speaking country at an early age, and you wish for them to speak, read, and write in Russian, and communicate freely with you, friends, and relatives — then this course is for you. I use play-based methods for teaching writing, including for complete beginners. To make the most of these lessons, I recommend that you provide your child with a writing/drawing tablet and a Russian-language keyboard (or Cyrillic stickers for the keys). To develop both dialogue and monologue speech, we will work with materials from Russian folklore as well as everyday topics tailored to your child's interests and goals. Each lesson is fully personalized, and the overall language development plan is carefully coordinated with you, the parent. The course also involves a significant amount of independent work, both autonomously and with parental participation. If you're looking for a meaningful and educational way for your child to spend the summer — this course is for you!
