Why do I need a teacher?
There may be hundreds of apps and books to learn languages. However, they rarely get you to where you want to be.
A few reasons why a language trainer could actually get you to fluency:
- The human factor
- Fluency is often linked to the active knowledge of 5000 to 10000 words or more. That requires a lot of patience and motivation. Having a human to follow your progress and keep you going may make a huge difference.
- Personalization
- Ever wasted time going through words and concepts you already know? A teacher can adapt to you and quickly skip through the concept you already know. No more wasted time!
- Instant feedback
- Ever wondered if your pronunciation is quite right? Well you will need an actual person to tell you. A teacher will be able to eradicate mistakes before they take root.
About me
I am a native Russian speaker and I taught myself French, English and Italian to native levels in the last 10 years. I'm now on my way to learn Spanish and Chinese. I have been a professional teacher for several years in schools in New York and London. I can regularly be seen ordering cappuccino in a café in Italy, chatting with friends at a terrasse in France, enjoying afternoon tea in London, strolling on Broadway in New York, or sipping fresh kvass in a park in Russia.
