About Me
italki teacher since Jul 19, 2012Me as a Teacher
Hello! I'm currently available for help with proofreading and editing assignments, or for students who want irregular lessons.
I’m a native speaker of English who was born and raised in the state of New York in the USA. I have three services on Italki: first, I teach professional formal and informal English lessons, second, I help with proofreading and editing, and third, I help with translation from Russian to English. I understand the Russian language and have lived in Russian-speaking countries, which can be helpful for Russian-speaking students. My lessons & teaching style
My teaching philosophy is student centered and focused on your goals. From the first lesson, we will focus on your learning goals, and we will make a plan to help you reach these goals. If you have any questions about myself or my services on Italki, you can check my teacher page, or you can send me a message.

Best teacher, editor and friend. He knows how to edit; he will impeccably correct your grammar, but still keep your content/voice.

I learned interesting details about academic writing during the proofreading (e.g. "etc" is not considered applicable to academic language)
