Apart from learning foreign languages, here are some things that I enjoy in my free time (in no particular order): - slacklining - preparing Italian food - solving puzzles with my family - making small programs in Python - watching Soviet movies - listening to my father's stories - learning about strange math problems - ping pong

Me as a Teacher

I have about 8 years of informal tutoring experience. Most of it is conversation-based, which I think is one of the most effective ways of learning a language. I'm very attentive to the level of my students, and I do my best to adjust my speech to a level that is comprehensible but still challenges them in a productive manner.

My lessons & teaching style

Beginners: We'll pick a topic for each lesson. If the student has time, I would like them to prepare a list of words related to that topic that they would like to use. We will work on building simple sentences and using the new vocabulary in various contexts. I will take detailed notes throughout the lesson that the student will be able to review later on. Advanced: If the student already has a particular activity in mind, then I'll happily try it out (e.g. practicing an interview, analyzing a video, etc.). Otherwise, I can offer some ideas about a topic to discuss or a short text to read together. I will take detailed notes in a document that the student will be able to review later on.

I really enjoy my lessons with Dominic. It feels like a conversation with a friend and helps me stay consistent even when I'm very tired and don't feel like studying.

I have been studying with Dominic for more than a year, I finally began to speak and understand native English speakers :) Lessons with Dominic are always interesting, we communicate on different topics, we analyze grammar, if Dominic notices mistakes, he corrects me and does it with care and support.

I want to express my gratitude to Dominic for his work, his knowledge and great patience. Dominic is not only a good teacher, but also a great psychologist, because in the course of our lessons, he helped me overcome my fears in terms of communication, this allowed me to adapt to society, solve certain issues independently, communicate freely in any situation, and start traveling. The value of this experience in incredibly high. I recommend this wonderful teacher to everyone. Good luck and inspiration!
