About my experience:
With over 11+ years of experience as an International English Trainer / English Teacher, I specialize in empowering learners who are willing to improve their Conversational English Skills for daily life and people who are planning to relocate abroad, ensuring a smooth transition. My expertise lies in helping non-native English speakers enhance their language skills, build confidence and bridge cultural gaps.
By focusing on personalized instruction and individual approach, I foster an immersive learning experience that blends grammar, vocabulary, listening and speaking practice, while also addressing the unique challenges of cultural adaptation. My approach is also rooted in creating engaging and interactive lessons that foster language development.
I stay current with the latest educational trends and tools, ensuring that my students/clients receive high-quality language training. I am a certified TEFL Teacher with a specialization in Teaching Test Preparation Courses and Teaching Business English. In addition, I have worked in a British curriculum school and in an American curriculum school in the UAE, and I have an extensive experience preparing students for Cambridge IGCSE and Pearson Edexcel exams. I have also worked at a language institution in the UAE with students of various age groups (children, teenagers, adults) and of diverse educational and cultural backgrounds.
Apart from that, I support individuals who are preparing to travel or relocate to Russian-speaking countries and who might need support with the Russian Language in both casual and professional contexts.

My story and how it all started:
My name is Liudmila, and I was born into a musical family. I have always had a passion for music and learning languages.
When I was a child, I started learning languages at an early age. Initially, I studied foreign languages at a Specialized Linguistic School. Then I continued my education at a Linguistic College and later - at a Linguistic University. I have studied English, Russian, German, Polish and Latin languages. In addition, I have had a private English tutor and a private German tutor who supported me in my learning journey as I wanted to progress faster.
Apart from that, I have had a passion for music. I attended a Specialized Music School where I studied instrument playing, singing, solfeggio, theory of music and music literature. I have also had a private vocal teacher/vocal coach. Moreover, I have attended a folk theatre "Gostitsa" where I learnt singing and dancing as well as performing on stage. I have taken part in several concerts and contests both solo and as a part of a musical band.
I truly believe that learning music can help improve language skills and can support language acquisition. I also think that my musical background has significantly enhanced my language skills.
My hobbies include music, theatre, learning languages, reading, photography, sport and a healthy lifestyle, personal and professional development.
Prior to joining the Education Sector, I worked in a Medical field, Construction field and IT field.
My greatest achievements include participating in a Republican instrumental music contest where I won the 3rd prize and moving alone to another country for life and work. In my professional career my biggest achievement so far has been my students' impressive IGCSE exam results while working in a British curriculum school in the UAE.
I'm always open to new and exciting opportunities and projects. If you would like to work together or if you need help in improving your language skills, feel free to contact me using the contact details or contact form below.
