Hello! I'm Natalia, a multilingual Brit from London (don't get fooled by my name). I love tasting new cultures, living in them, and helping other people bridge the language barrier. I do this through my teaching, translating and interpreting skills.
I have a BA in Classics and Modern Languages from the Univeristy of Oxford, and an MA in Interpreting and Translation from the University of Bath.

For the past 9 years I have been living mainly in Moscow, and teaching a range of age groups English (from 2 years of age to 60+). I have worked at a primary school and as a private tutor. My aim is to get my students speaking with confidence and to have fun in the process. I love taking them on a new journey into different concepts and possibilities that any foreign language affords. Reading literature and discussing it is the perfect way to broaden a child's experience of the world.
I look forward to starting our Book Club journey with your children.

Hello I’m Valentina.

I believe that no matter how old people are they should strive to being lifelong learners. That is probably why teaching has been my passion for the past years. It is extremely rewarding to see how the patterns and beliefs set in the early age then accompany people in their adult lives.

I’ve got a double BSc in Economics from HSE in Moscow and University of London, and MA in teaching.

I have been working with International Baccalaureate schools for the past 8 years teaching mathematics and economics. I’ve always liked to read but ever since my daughter was born I’ve become increasingly interested in kid lit and children illustration. Last year I followed my passion and launched a project devoted to children books (Eves Olives Box).

Organising a book club is the next step in this wonderful adventure and I’m really excited to see where it will get us to
