About me

I facilitate language learning for adults and teenagers from all walks of life. I was raised in an international environment, and I am also raising two teenagers who fluently speak three languages. I am very passionate about world cultures, communication and literature, and I tailor our lessons according to your interests and goals.

Experience & qualifications

  • Bilingual in Spanish and Russian
  • Lived 10+ years in Denmark, learned Danish at KISS and as part of a BA in Danish from RUC
  • Lived 2 years in London
  • MA in Linguistic Psychology from the University of Copenhagen
  • Experience teaching languages to teenagers (English at a high school level) and adults (Danish for international professionals, Spanish at AOF, Russian for students of Slavic studies in Barcelona)

My lessons

Whether you want to discuss literature, prepare for a specific exam, or practice conversations for your career, I design the curriculum around topics you actually care about. I combine clear explanations with practical activities in a warm atmosphere, so you can learn at your own pace and gain confidence.

Double lessons / intensive immersion are available if the time is short before your exam.

Who I teach

Adults and teenagers at any level who want to learn Spanish or Russian. I also specialize in teaching Danish to Spanish and Russian speakers, explaining the grammar and phonetics in your native language.
