Bio
I was born and raised in Russia. After obtaining my Bachelor's degree, I moved to China to pursue my Master's. I lived there for more than four years. Chinese and English languages have become a guide for me into the universe of amazing cultures and people. Travelling, living, and studying abroad have allowed me to feel like a part of the global community, participate in unique events and make friends from different parts of the world.
During my teaching career, I have been involved in various educational projects, working as a primary and secondary school teacher. I have organised and coordinated school trips for students from different countries, helping them adapt to studying and living abroad.
