Hi! My name's Katya, I'm 24 and I've been teaching English for 2 years now. In 2017 I graduated from the local State University and worked in a language school teaching English and German to kids and adults. In September 2018 I decided to work for myself and now I give individual home lessons to kids and teens. I love my job, but the problem is that I mostly have kids of 3d - 5the grade and I feel the lack of real language practice. I want to develop my skills by communicating with a native speaker. Also I'd be glad just to find nice friends to chat :)

    The monkey I want to tell you a story happened to me last year. It was late autumn. My friends and I went for a walk and saw the poster said about an exhibition of monkeys in our town. I'm fond of monkeys, you know, they are such cute and clever animals!:) So we bought tickets without any hesitation. Later that day we visited the exhibition. There were a lot of monkeys: some of them were in glass terrariums or in cages, some were sitting on leashes and the other who were smarter and calmer were free to do whatever they wanted. We moved from cage to cage admiring those cute animals. I was so touched that even shed a tear, I was sorry that such cute animals had to be locked in cages. Then we came up to a man, who had a small nimble and restless monkey on a leash. The monkey was jumping on people, on their shoulders, getting into their bags, pockets and stealing things from there. I had a wallet in my hand and the man who hold the leash asked me to give my wallet to that little beast. I didn't want to do it, because there was a big sum of money in that wallet. But the man assured, that it would be fun and that the monkey wouldn't steal or harm anything. Nevertheless I didn't agree, but the man came up to me, literally snatched the wallet from my hands and gave it to the monkey. She immediately opened and got some banknotes out of it. I panicked and tried to get my wallet back, but the monkey became so angry, she start screaming shrilly, and after my another attempt to take my wallet she attacked my leg and bit it. The man and some other people were laughing and some were panicking too but none ventured to help me. After a long fight I finally had my wallet back and we went home but for a long time I could hear the monkey agressively screaming after me! P.S:) Don't take this story seriously, I really had a lot of fun:)

    Пиши здесь любые мысли, которые приходят тебе в голову на русском языке, носители языка исправят ошибки и научат говорить правильно) Главное, не стесняйся своих ошибок. Еще не помешало бы слушать русские песни, смотреть фильмы (хотя бы с субтитрами), читать несложные тексты на русском и переводить их на свой родной язык, чтобы увеличивать словарный запас.

    Обращайся, готова помочь) Удачи!

    My examinations

    After a long break I decided to keep writing here, because it's really important for me to practice my language skills, because next year in the institute will be one of the hardest.
    I'll write in English and sometimes in German.
    So I'm studying at the faculty of foreign languages, in July I've finished 2nd year of studying. I had 3 examinations: Speech in English, Speech in German and Phonetics in German. The examination in speech in both languages consisted of the listening a short text and reading a story. The students had to retell both texts, express their opinion about the problem raised in a text, and connect this problem with one of the topic we've practiced this semester: sport or travelling.
    I wasn't really successful in English, because I couldn't connect the texts with topics, I didn't see any connection between them :) Maybe it was my fault and I just should learn thinking more global :) But still I had 4 in English, it's a good mark in my country. And in German I got 5, it's very good. The phonetics in German was easy for me. Though I can't say that I speak very well in German, the german pronounciation is hard, but this time fortune was on my side. The task was to tell one of the 8 poems, to tell the theory about peculiarities of German phonetics and to read aloud a text. So I managed everything and got a 5 too :)
    As I have already said, this year will be hard enough, so it won't be so easy to get good marks, and I hope I'll get acquainted with lots of people here, who will help me to check my essay (we are constantly writing them), who'll teach me how to say smth better or what sounds more colloquial. I'm grateful for every correction :)
    By the way, if you have questions connected with Russian language I'll willingly help you :)
