Welcome!
I’m Daria, and for the past decade, I’ve had the pleasure of teaching English to a diverse range of students. I specialize in helping young professionals advance in their careers by focusing on business English and conversation skills.
My goal is to help you speak English confidently, whether for business meetings, presentations, or everyday conversations.
A Bit About Me
Beyond teaching, I’m a polyglot, fluent in five languages and currently learning two more. My tech skill set has allowed me to build my own websites, including a dedicated learning platform for my students where you can find your personalized lessons along with interactive exercises.
I’m also passionate about photography, writing, hiking, horse riding, and I love dogs.

Teaching Philosophy
As a Certified TEFL teacher, I employ the latest and most effective methods in teaching English as a foreign language.
I start with a thorough needs analysis and preliminary assessment to understand each student’s goals and current skill level. This personalized approach ensures that every lesson is tailored to meet their specific needs.
My aim is not just to teach English, but to help my students speak confidently and use the language effectively in their professional and personal lives.
Why I Teach
I believe that everyone deserves the confidence to express themselves in a second language. I’ve seen how a lack of confidence can hold people back, even when their skills are more than adequate. Teaching English allows me to share my knowledge and help others overcome these challenges.
There’s nothing more rewarding than seeing my students succeed and gain the confidence they need to thrive.
Success Stories
I’ve had the privilege of working with executive staff from various companies, who have appreciated my unique approach to teaching.
Many have praised my ability to create a comfortable, non-judgmental environment that fosters learning and growth.
As a certified life coach, I bring empathy and understanding to my sessions, making it easier for students to focus on improving their conversation skills.
Student Testimonials
Daria was patient and fun to talk to. She always explained the reasons behind a grammar rule, helping me understand how the language works, instead of having me memorize a set of rules.
Alex, Dentist
Daria is always patient and competent. She never made me feel judged and I was able to practice speaking without constantly second-guessing myself. I enjoy our lessons. The best part is, I’ve started to speak more at work, too.
