I have a long-standing practice of teaching of Russian non-Russian students. It should be noted that the Russian language - is my native language. I was born and raised in Central Asia, where they speak Russian zyke without accents. This speech became my speech. I also had a job as an editor and presenter of television broadcasts in Russian. I have successfully worked on the Russian language teaching to students of all ages. In addition, I am a translator in Russian novels, stories and tales of the Uzbek authors. My translations were published in newspapers and magazines, and came as separate books. I am confident that my knowledge and experience will be needed you.

I enjoy teaching all age ranges, from 6 to 96. Foreign Languages are a challenge for the uninitiated, and I believe generating an interest in embracing the challenge is a key component in teaching. There is a great need for learning foreign languages in the global world of today, and the best way to merge seamlessly is to learn early and/or learn often. I believe the only foolish question is the one not asked. I encourage all students to ask immediately if there is confusion or misunderstanding and aim to answer that need in an easy-to-understand manner. I believe a language course should consist of the students speaking just as much as the teacher.
Having studied language from an early age, I discovered I had an inherent ability to process foreign tongues. I have earned a Bachelor of Arts in French and French Linguistics and have studied it for over seventeen years. My trips to ... read more

My personal teaching philosophy is that there is no teaching without learning. Most classroom studies are at least partly removed from their intended application, for reasons of assuring comprehensive competency and because of the educational structure, i.e. attending school comes in advance of and separately from applying one’s knowledge. However, learning a language,for example and especially while living in it has both a need for constant practice and occasion for immediate application. The broader linguistic community has thusly prioritized practical teaching methods, of which I wish to avail myself.
I am a recent Bachelor of Arts graduate with a double major in Philosophy and Political Science from Fairleigh Dickinson University in Florham Park, NJ. During the latter part of my college experience, I began teaching in K-12 classrooms. Quickly and suddenly, I realized that I ... read more

More About This Tutor...

In both my tutoring and teaching, I firmly believe in change. If I walk into a low energy classroom of students slouching in desks, the first thing I do is ask them to stand up. If I am tutoring a student who struggles with vocabulary, he and I will work to find a completely new way to study. In accordance with this concept of change, I also concentrate on adapting myself to the mood and personality of my student or students. While my natural inclination is still to prepare and overprepare for any teaching assignment, six years in the classroom have taught me that I must be willing to throw out the lesson plan and change if the student is not receptive. Ultimately, my goal is to motivate students and provide them with a variety of tools to help them succeed.
I have extensive experience teaching language-based skills to both native and non-native English speakers. My first ... read more
