About Ernest
Qualified English and Russian tutor. Bilingual professional with 10 years of experience. University graduate. TEFL certificate (Distinction/120 hours).
I am down-to-earth, encouraging and supportive, yet at the same time precise, rigorous and professional.
My students are always treated with respect and each student gets a personal tailored experience.
*****
I was born in Saint-Petersburg but moved to England at the age of 13. Having spent half of my life in Russia and the other half here in England, I have kept in touch with the reality of modern Russia and Russian language, whilst developing my knowledge of English and of the reality of modern Britain (and the world) to that of a native Brit.
I attained 10 GCSEs (A-B) and 4 A-Levels (A-B) from Copleston High School & Sixth Form in Ipswich - where I started volunteering as an English Reading Mentor working with other pupils - and graduated with a Bachelors Degree from London Metropolitan University - where I was working as an Academic Writing mentor, helping other university students improve their writing skills. After university I spent the next few years working in bilingual positions across various fields and I have gradually become an expert in complexities of both English and Russian languages. I am currently doing a Double Masters degree in Politics & Security at the School of Slavonic and Eastern European Studies (UCL).

Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
I decided to start learning Russian (from scratch) for professional reasons and Ernest has been very helpful and accommodating. With Ernest, within just a couple of months I was able to read the Russian alphabet (Cyrillic) and have some basic command of Russian. I made progress faster than I expected and we are continuing our lessons. Ernest is very friendly, but also professional, focused, responsive and time-efficient.
When I started taking lessons with Ernest my English was really poor but after just 2 months it has improved a lot. He is very friendly, professional and always willing to solve the aspects that are problematic for his students.
