Ksenija, англоязычный репетитор школы Skyeng

My name is Ksenija (Ксения) and I’m excited about the possibility of becoming your new teacher! I’m currently in my fourth year of studies, headed towards a Bachelor’s degree in Scandinavian languages, however, my professional focus has always been English. I’ve been working as an ESL online tutor for the past three years. Although I began teaching in order to make some money on the side, I fell in love with the job, and I can’t imagine my life without talking to my wonderful students and sharing the true passion for learning. As far as my teaching methods are concerned, I have to admit I prefer keeping things simple. The most important goal for me as a teacher is to make my student open up, and start feeling really comfortable speaking English. That’s why I emphasize conversational lessons, with the formalities such as grammar and new vocabulary being done along the way. With that being said, if the student is preparing for a particular exam, or wants to follow a specific course, I take a more conventional approach.

My free time is sacred for me, and that’s why I like to spend it mindfully. I enjoy doing any kind of outdoor activity (hiking, cycling), I practice yoga on a daily basis, I read a lot of books, and I have a passion for cooking (or should I say - eating!). However, I also like spending time with my loved ones, watching movies, playing board games.

If there is one thing, I like my students to remember about me, that’s the fact that I genuinely believe that teaching is a two-way street. I learn just as much from you, as you can from me. And that’s the beauty of it.
