In 2016, I was awarded the Lesson Share Competition award by OneStopEnglish, the world's largest online teaching resource website.
I have worked as a Director of Studies in both Moscow and London, and am familiar with Russian students. My lessons are unlike others. I complete a thorough needs analysis to ensure that you needs are met and that lessons are engaging. I employ a mainly task-based methodlogy which helps improve students' confidence and fluency.
