My name is Maya, I am a native Russian speaker and a language tutor. My diploma in "Theory and practice of translation" from the faculty of linguistics enabled me to establish a career as an interpreter. Nevertheless, my love for exquisite intricacies of Russian language and passion to connect with people motivated me to pursue teaching as a profession. Throughout my teaching tenure I designed an interactive learning method to overcome the frustrations, usually experienced by language students, to learn in a more natural way. My state-of-the-art method has a proven track record of success on people of all ages, the young and adult, inside and outside Russia (e.g. Mainland China). I can be your guru from the beginning stages to fluency and perfection with all the pleasure.
