I have been giving English lessons for 10 years and most of my students have stayed with me for 4-8 years, having gone from complete beginners to gaining entry into the best universities like LSE, UC Irvine, UCLA, Warwick, the Sorbonne, among others. Apart from my language lessons, I have been teaching data engineering and statistics at LSE and Oxford. A typical lesson (1.5-2hrs) is based on Oxford textbooks like the English File or test materials, depending on the student’s requirements and language level — we shall determine the best way forward during our first class. For 4 years, I was a judge and tutor at an English-language talent show (希望之星) on China Central Television. Speaking both Mandarin Chinese and Russian, I can spot many recurring mistakes given the structure of both languages and know surefire ways to correct them. I pay particular attention to teaching phonetics, pronunciation, and vocabulary with some etymology (the origins of words) to make sure that students are well-prepared for actual real-world scenarios as well as language tests like IELTS, Cambridge, and TOEFL.
Recommendations

Alex made the lessons really engaging. When I first started learning with Alex I had a very basic understand of the English language, now I feel confident in any situation thanks to Alex. I would recommend Alex as he is the best teacher I have had for English.
I have been studying English with Alexander for two years, and during this time my level of English has improved significantly. He is an excellent teacher, and I highly recommend him both as a teacher in general and as an English tutor in particular.
Alexander pays great attention not only to grammar but also to correct pronunciation. Every lesson is very well-structured and includes a mix of grammar, vocabulary, speaking, listening, and various exercises. The programme was always rich and challenging, yet at the same time engaging and enjoyable.
The lessons were held in a very positive and motivating atmosphere. Alexander has a unique ability to explain and present new topics clearly, making even difficult aspects of English easy to understand. He is also very responsible and well-organised. From time to time, we even had lessons outdoors, which created a friendly atmosphere and gave me extra motivation to practise speaking English.
Thanks to his professionalism and teaching style, learning English has been both effective and inspiring. I would highly recommend Alexander to anyone looking to improve their English.
A highly competent, erudite teacher and a wonderful person.
