I am a passionate language, literature, and history instructor, with 20 years teaching, advising and private tutoring experience. I particularly enjoy working one on one with students, tailoring my instruction to the particular needs of the individual student. I provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free learning environment, where students will work at their own pace to achieve maximum results. At my most recent academic position at the University of Texas at Austin, I was named runner up for the prestigious Phi Beta Kappa Award for Excellence in Teaching in 2015.

As a teacher and researcher of literature, I am an expert in reading comprehension and literary analysis, and will work with students to maximize their understanding of literary texts.

As a Ph.D. in Russian literature and language, I have taught Russian at all levels for over 20 years to children and college students. As a native speaker of Russian who grew up in the United States, I am fully bilingual in Russian and English.

I have an extensive background teaching and doing research on European history.

Please feel free to contact me to learn more about how I can help you to achieve academic success!
