back on italki and ready for a pleasant chat with you! The thing which makes my teaching helpful is that I pay attention not only to the lesson itself, but also to the preparation and follow-up tasks which you can receive as a homework assignments. As I work as a teacher in everyday life too, I know how important it is to consider different aspects of methodology and language learning and acquisition such as spaced repetition, student talking time, different kinds of approaches, i.e., lexical, and other. I see learning a language through the lens of a learner as well. I fluently speak 3 languages and am at the moment learning 2 more!

une approche structurée mais très vivante At formal lessons I work with various textbooks as well as with my own materials. We can focus mostly on communication and listening comprehension or choose a more general approach towards learning. At informal conversation classes I make you talk as much as possible asking you lots of questions and correcting you in the chat so that you're able to review everything on your own afterwards. I can also make extra voice recordings if asked. Я хороший методист и работаю системно и последовательно по определённой программе, которая выстраивается с учётом ваших пожеланий. Часто с фокусом на эффективную коммуникацию и быстрое достижение уровня выживания. Времязатратные вещи даю в качестве д/з.
