"Whether for yourself or your child, I’m here to help you turbocharge your learning! Rooted in the joy of discovery, my lessons inspire curiosity, confidence, and a love for learning. Every session is personally tailored, blending deep subject knowledge with engaging methods that make learning fun. My approach is clear and patient, ensuring that every student feels valued and understood. I equip my students with effective learning strategies that not only ensure academic success but also empower them for a more fulfilling future.

I graduated as valedictorian from Moscow State University, the best university in the country. I majored in Computational Linguistics and minored in Literature, a perfect mix of STEM subjects, languages, and humanities. Since then, although I’ve taught in a classroom setting for several years tutoring quickly became my full-time occupation.

Over the last 11 years, I’ve tutored everything from test prep, geometry, and Latin to history, pottery, and yoga to more than 200 students from 5 to 75 years old. I love teaching math and sciences, bringing them to life and boiling them down to their essence so that they’re much easier to tackle. Beyond STEM, I help students with languages (Russian, English, French, Spanish, Latin, and Old Church Slavonic), history, theology, and Olympiads like NACLO. I'm not just a tutor; I'm here to support your child in their academic journey, assisting with homework, test preparation, and organizational skills.

Beyond school subjects, I assist with most undergraduate-level linguistics courses. I also help with essay editing and exam prep across various disciplines.

I offer in-person tutoring throughout the greater LA area and online sessions via the Wyzant platform, ensuring you can learn from any location at any time. I am both flexible and reliable: your emergency is my emergency!

Let's embark on this transformative journey together! Simply send me a tutoring request, and we'll pinpoint the perfect time for our first session." less...
