My motto is not only to teach language, but also make Russians closer to people of other cultures and languages by showing and researching rich Russian history, culture, humor and character. That is why I’m using press, everyday life stories and cases in addition to academic text books and methods. My journalistic and communication background together with education helps me to reach this goal.

As a Ukrainian teacher for foreigners with varying language proficiency levels, I hold a unique and pivotal role in the realm of education.
I am in touch with my students almost all the time. We are not only practicing grammar and vocabulary, but we are also experiencing a love of Ukrainian culture together. There is no place for constant boring theory and mindless rote memorization. My values are trust, understanding and love.

My dedication to imparting the Ukrainian language to a diverse group of learners has shaped an identity, fostering a rich tapestry of experiences, skills, and qualities that make an invaluable asset in the field of education.

I love seeing and participating in my students' interest in the Ukrainian language. What warms my heart the most is their curiosity about every detail and exception. Especially when they want to look for new things for themselves and then tell me about what they have found with a twinkle in their eye.

I give personal and practical Dutch lessons to adults at levels A0–A2. The lessons are suitable for people starting from scratch, but also for students who already understand some Dutch and want to gain more confidence in speaking and understanding it.

During the lessons, we work on speaking, listening, pronunciation, vocabulary, reading, and basic grammar. We immediately practice new words and grammatical structures in recognizable situations from daily life and work. We also listen to short dialogues and practice how Dutch sounds in real conversations.

For example, we practice:

Introduce yourself and talk about your family;
make appointments;
grocery shopping and understanding prices;
time, days and months;
housing and transport;
health and contact with the general practitioner;
conversations with colleagues and customers;
simple WhatsApp messages and emails.

No two students are the same. That is why I tailor the lessons to your level, pace, profession, and personal goals. In addition to structured lesson material, I use extra exercises and assignments that align with situations where you need Dutch.

You receive clear explanations, plenty of repetition, interactive exercises, and personalized homework with feedback.

My goal is not only for you to learn and understand Dutch, but also to dare to use it increasingly independently and with more confidence in the Netherlands.

All my courses are intensive and personalized, focused on your goals.

During our lessons, we will primarily speak Russian, as this allows us to learn the language as quickly as possible. We will read articles and discuss current events. If you don't understand something, I will be happy to explain it to you in French or English.

To make our courses more effective, I use the following approaches:
1. Communicative approach (as soon as we learn a word or grammar structure, we begin to use it in our communication)
2. Linguistic repertoire (we will make references to languages you already speak to make memorization easier and more lasting)

If you want to learn Russian for work, business, official exams, everyday communication, or simply out of love for Slavic languages and cultures, you've come to the right place. If you have other goals related to the Russian language, don't worry. Send me a message describing your situation, and I'll create a program specifically for you.

The atmosphere in our classes is friendly, supportive, and motivating.
