I am multilingual, have MA in Linguistics and Education and most of my life worked as a college level teacher of foreign languages and a medical/legal interpreter. I taught English and French in Russia and then Russian as a Foreign Language in the US (Bridge Linguatec). I come from a dynasty of teachers. My mother always said: “There are no bad students, only bad teachers”. As a result I grew up seeing my students’ success as my own personal challenge. Over years I developed a teaching style which proved to be working quite well. First and foremost I believe in maintaining a friendly and positive atmosphere in the classroom. Students must feel comfortable and encouraged to speak up and not afraid to make mistakes, which can be used as opportunities to point out misconceptions. I strive to keep classes memorable and exciting, making sure students are engaged and interested, which can be

I have a strong, diverse background in education, from EFL instruction overseas, to public school classroom instruction and private tutoring, to individual and group piano lessons. I began tutoring and teaching piano when in high school and continued through college. After college, I directed an after-school program in inner-city Dallas, where students were given homework help and supplemental educational activities on a daily basis. While teaching English in Russia, I fashioned curriculum and activities, pre-K through adult. I have continued to teach English to language learners, and gained more knowledge and experience while working as a reading specialist at a public school in Commerce City. Through my experience working with students in inner-city Dallas, in Russia, in Commerce City, and in Denver, I have learned to be creative when finding ways to help students succeed. Educati

As a rising junior at Cornell University, I was asked to TA a Chemistry course for engineers. I accepted and entered into my first teaching position. Immediately, I knew teaching was right for me. Helping explain a complicated topic in a simple way and watch students get it is an amazing experience. I quickly signed up to TA 3 more courses next semester (Bio,Chem,CS). After graduation I continued teaching at KAAPrep. There I taught 1on1 and group lectures on math and science subjects and standardized tests like SAT2's and AP's. Lastly, I taught Organic Chemistry at the Weill medical school in the Middle East. I was born and lived in Russia until I was 11, so I am fluent in the language. I strongly believe in learning by doing. I have never given a lecture or taught something 1on1 without providing practice problems or peppering students with questions. The hardest part about this is ge
