Hey! My name is Anastasia. I have obtained the International Baccalaureate Diploma in Dubai where I specialized in higher-level English Language and Literature, Psychology and Visual Arts.
At the start of my teaching career, I gained my knowledge through practice and by obtaining my TKT certification.
I decided to become an English Tutor because I was always fascinated by the process of teaching particularly the act of educating people around you in a fun and interactive way it. Specifically, that inspires me to continue my journey of sharing the beauty and power of the English Language.
I have been teaching for over two years both in Russia and Dubai. Throughout my years of teaching, I have met many interesting and incredible people who inspired the person that I am today.
My philosophy is that every student is my friend because I believe that this approach allows the student and the teacher to create a connection that allows them to understand each other's goals while incorporating the students' interests.
Why choose me as your Tutor?
I can promise you that our lessons will feel like a relaxing chat with your friend because I will make sure to accompany the academic practice with videos/games/chats to ensure that you don't feel overwhelmed with information.
I will make sure to customize the course to your needs. Therefore, the course will be set out to concentrate on elements which need more practice for example: grammar, vocabulary, speaking, reading, writing etc. These skills will be practiced in the context of your interest and many interactive activities which include: games, role playing, guessing , matching , etc.
I can assure you that after taking a set of classes with me you will be able to gain a clear understanding of the language and reach your desired goal.
I am very friendly, energetic and patient with all of my students which allows me to build a great relationship with them as a results creating a very comfortable and judgment free atmosphere.
Audio/Video policy I prefer to pay attention to the student's facial expressions and body language which is why I recommend a video and audio on the lesson because it allows us to build a stronger understanding of each other. However, if you are uncomfortable or nervous particularly in the first lessons I am more than happy to keep the lessons as Audio only.
If you need to cancel a lesson or reschedule it please make sure to contact your teacher 12 hours before the starting time of your lesson.
