A great lesson! Elena also shares information about the Bulgarian culture within the lesson, which is very interesting and useful. In this lesson, we discussed Easter traditions and name days!
Hello! My name is Elena and I live in Bulgaria. My mother is Russian and Ukrainian and my father is Bulgarian so I teach my native languages - Bulgarian and Russian (and I have been studying Ukrainian since 2017). I also have an MA degree in English and Japanese (Applied Linguistics). I love teaching and studying languages. I would like to share with you the enthusiasm I have for languages.
Why students study with me:
I can help you improve your converstation skills and understand some difficult grammar (articles, verb tenses, perfective and imperfective verbs in Bulgarian or Russian, etc). This will save you time in your studies and increase your confidence in speaking and writing.
Please schedule classes in advance as availability is limited. Thank you!
Lesson payment:
Prepaid classes only (full lesson fee).
Qualifications & Experience
I have an MA in Applied linquistics - English and Japanese language. I have taught English to adults and children. I have taught Bulgarian to private students who are foreigners. I have also taught Japanese at the university.
Teaching Approach
I use the communicative method in teaching. We will practise speaking. listening, reading and writing in every lesson. I can send you files to help you with your studies. I always work on tailoring my lessons to the needs of every individual student. Our lessons will be not only useful for you but also interesting and fun.
Здравейте! Аз съм от България и освен български говоря английски, руски и японски. Преподаването ми носи голямо удовлетворение и радост. Имам опит и в подготвянето на ученици за изпитите IELTS и TOEFL iBT.
Qualifications & Experience
Завършила съм Приложна лингвистика - английски и японски език. Освен това изучавах "Японски език и култура" в Токийския институт за чужди езици в продължение на една година със стипендия на японското министерство на образованието. Преподавам езици от 1999 г.
Teaching Approach
Използвам комуникативния метод на преподаване. С учениците ми упражняваме говоренето, слушането, четенето и писането във всеки урок. Мога да ви изпращам файлове, които да подпомагат обучението ви. Часовете ни ще бъдат не само полезни, а и много интересни и приятни.
