Hello dear language learner!
A quick word about myself,
My name is Oleg, I'm originally from Russia. I spent 20 year in the army serving as a mil interpreter and liaison officer. And I'm a fully qualified teacher of English too; I have been teaching English for 15 years. I worked in primary, secondary schools and universities in Russia and abroad. I'm particularly interested in teaching British English (I also taught Russian, French and Ancient Greek).
My range of lessons starts with English conversation. Then academic writing, exam preparation. So if you're looking to take your USE (Unified State Exams) in English - here in Russia - I can help you pass these exams. Equally, if you need help developing your study skills or your general English - if that's the case - then again we could perhaps work together.
What our lessons be like?
We'll start with short warm-up activity to prepare you for learning.
We'll review our previous lesson and go through any homework you've completed.
After this I'll introduce a new topic or grammar point: this could be through a story, pictures or a short video. I'll support you every step of the way.
We'll finish our lesson with a quick recap of what we've learnt and I'll give you a task to complete before our next lesson.
Above all, I think it's important that we build up a good relationship. And I think that people tend to learn better if they have mates. So, I look forward to meeting you; feel free to contact me via Skype or Preply.
Thank you for reading the blog, by the way - it means a lot to me!
Best wishes,
Oleg A.
