I was born and raised in Canada and come from a Russian-Ukrainian background. I am fully fluent in English, Russian, and French. I completed my high school education in a French school, which strengthened my mastery of the language. I also hold a university degree in Business Management, giving me strong communication and organizational skills. My multilingual upbringing and academic foundation allow me to teach languages with clarity, cultural context, and confidence.

I’ve been teaching both French and English since high school, giving me over 10 years of tutoring experience.
My teaching approach is patient, personalized, and conversation-focused. I tailor each lesson to the student’s level, goals, and learning style, emphasizing real-life examples and practical communication. I break down grammar in a simple, approachable way and use repetition, storytelling, and dialogue to build natural fluency. I also incorporate cultural context to make the language feel lived, not memorized. My goal is to help students feel confident, supported, and genuinely excited to learn.
My availability is very flexible, and I’m always willing to work around the client’s schedule to find what works best for them.
I offer convenient online classes to accommodate different schedules and time zones. I cannot guarantee in person sessions.
