Russian & English Tutor with 8 years of experience. Working with children & adults

I am a UK Master’s-educated, TEFL-certified English and Russian tutor with over six years of experience teaching both children and adults. My academic background in Advanced Research Methods has given me a deep understanding of critical thinking, structured argumentation, and analytical writing — skills that are essential for IB English, GCSE, A-Level, and exam success. I specialise in helping students develop clarity in their thinking and precision in their writing. Many learners struggle not because they lack ability, but because they have never been shown how to structure ideas effectively or approach exams strategically. My lessons focus on building these foundations: essay structure, textual analysis, exam technique, and confident expression. In addition to English, I prepare students for Russian GCSE and A-Level examinations. As a bilingual tutor, I understand the nuances of language learning and adapt my teaching style to suit each individual’s level, personality, and goals. My approach combines academic rigour with a coaching mindset. I don’t just correct work — I teach students how to think independently, write convincingly, and approach exams with confidence. If you are looking for structured, focused support and measurable academic progress, I would be delighted to help.
