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.

Some of the areas that we can cover depending on your interests include giving presentations, describing data, negotiations, report and email writing, speaking on the phone or videoconference, participating in meetings and interview preparation. At the end of each lesson, I'll give feedback and exercises to work on (if you have the time) and will ask for your feedback to ensure that the lesson content is meeting your expectations.

I have a TEFL certificate (teaching English as a foreign language) with advanced TEFL certificates in teaching English on-line and business English from an accredited organisation (the TEFL org). In addition, I have an Executive MBA from the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne.

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.
