About me
Hi! I’m Alice - an English tutor, a language lover, and someone deeply curious about people, emotions, and the way we think.
I believe that learning a language is not just about grammar or vocabulary - it’s a way to connect with the world and with yourself. Whether you're learning for personal growth or working towards specific goals like IELTS or job interviews, I’m here to guide you with care, structure, and clarity.
I also specialize in IELTS preparation, helping students build confident speaking skills, improve their writing and understand exactly what examiners are looking for.
I’ve been teaching English for over 4 years, both online and offline, helping students from different backgrounds achieve a wide range of goals.
From preparing for international exams (like IELTS or internal placement tests) to practicing for job interviews in English, I tailor each lesson to your specific needs.
I hold a 160-hour TESOL certificate and a CETT-based teaching qualification, and I’ve completed courses and webinars on both teaching methodology and exam techniques, including specialized IELTS training with IDP, one of the official co-creators of the exam.
If you're tired of feeling like you're “studying English” without actually using it - let’s change that.
In our lessons, you will:
✅ Build real speaking confidence
✅ Learn to express your thoughts clearly and naturally
✅ Reflect and grow - both in English and beyond
✅ Work towards real-life goals like IELTS, job interviews, or moving abroad
This is English for your mind, your confidence, and your future - and I’m here to guide you every step of the way.
Book a trial lesson, and let’s find the learning style that works best for you.

I’m really happy with my lessons with Alisa. She’s easy to talk to and I never feel afraid of making mistakes. We can even joke during the lessons, which makes everything more relaxed. I can clearly see my English improving with every class. The 50 minutes go by so fast, it feels like just 5 minutes. It was always hard for me to find the right tutor, maybe I was just unlucky before. But this time I got lucky. Thank you!

I started learning English with Alisa more than 1 month ago and I feel happy with my choice because now I really feel that I'm getting better in English. I like that our classes are constructed such way that we train speaking mainly. In our first meeting I announced that my main problems are speaking and grammar. So we speak a lot and add a little of grammar each class. Alisa is a pleasant person to speak with and I don't feel embarrassed to share my deep thoughts about any topics. By the way, she has a degree in psychology and I appreciate her approach for not only practicing English but also discussing intriguing topics and sharing opinions. For instance, one of our topics was aging, and I'd never thought about it before this much. After our class, I started to think more about it and notice how other people of older age live to note if I'd like to be like that in the future. Thank you, Alisa :) I feel more confident with every our class.
