I can boast an excellent skill and education, but no degree or title would equip you with an ability to excite and inspire. Experience will.
Master’s in Education and Linguistics; Postgraduate in Political Studies. Fluent in English, Ukrainian and Russian. Proficient in German.
Internationally acclaimed member of: International Federation of Translators, Association of Qualified Translators and Interpreters, European Parliament Interpreters, American Translators Association.
Fully qualified and internationally certified English language tutor and translator, I have about 20 years of experience as a teacher of both General and Business English, a Corporate Language Trainer, Lecturer in English for Academic Purposes and Teacher Trainer.
In the last 15 years I have been training people (both in person and online) in English from many different industries - including Oil and Gas, Telecommunications, Politics, Publishing, Energy, Financial, Government, Entertainment, Construction, Medical, Pharmaceutical, Legal, Logistics. Consultancy, Insurance, Human Resources.

Should you or your company be interested in the international recognition of your language skills, I have an impressive track record with the international English exams preparation (IELTS, FCE, CAE, CPE, BULATS, CEFR, TKT).

English is an absolute passion of mine and I look forward to helping you build your confidence in speaking and pronouncing English and I can deliver structured or more relaxed lessons, tailor-made to help with whatever your individual needs are. My methodology depends on you and how you feel you can best learn. For that I would greatly appreciate your input. There are many different learning styles and we have a good forum to use many of them.

More than tutoring, I offer proofreading (at all levels, including BA, MA, PHD), essay writing and interview skills, communicating by telephone and provide help workshopping emails, essays, reports, newsletters, proposals, presentations, speeches and anything else you can think of. However, if you only need help with one specific project, please inquire additionally.
I am flexible and like to work with people's individual schedules, but on average I see people between 2-4 times a week, and I am available for 2-hour lessons.
