Larissa

I am a college lecturer with 30 years experience in teaching modern foreign languages: English (ESOL), IELTS, French and Russian currently teaching online only.

Tutoring Experience

I have been teaching ESOL, IELTS, French and Russian for 30 years now at Universities, colleges and privately. I am teaching the languages at all levels: from the beginners up to the advanced. I am also preparing students for exams in academic IELTS.

Tutoring Approach

I am teaching all the aspects of the language: speaking/listening, reading/writing. My teaching is grammar based as without the knowledge of grammar it is impossible to make up correct sentences. I am using authentic materials in all the languages I teach. There are a lot of activities resulting in improving speaking skills. My students always get higher results at the exams than they were initially hoping for. There is always a good rapport with the students. The students get all the help they need. My lessons are always well structured, lively and meet students' satisfaction.
