About me
Привіт! I'm Sofia I’m a Ukrainian language teacher with a background in Management and French Philology, and several years of experience working with languages and teaching.
I completed an internship in a language school, where I gained practical experience teaching students from different countries and levels. I speak English, Polish, French, Russian and Ukrainian, which helps me explain the language clearly and adapt lessons to my students’ needs.
I love meeting people from different cultures and helping them discover not only the Ukrainian language, but also Ukrainian culture, traditions and everyday life.
For the past three years, I’ve been teaching English to Ukrainian students, working with different levels and learning styles. This experience helped me develop a clear, structured, and student-focused approach, which I now bring to my Ukrainian lessons.
I specialize in:
- English-speaking beginners learning Ukrainian from zero;
- Learners interested in Ukrainian culture, travel, relocation, or personal growth;
- Students who want clear explanations, real communication, and confidence.
I’m also especially helpful if you already speak Polish or Russian, as I can explain similarities and differences to speed up your progress.
My lessons are interactive, structured and focused on real communication. During our classes we work on useful vocabulary, practical expressions and everyday situations such as meeting people, talking about hobbies and interests, travelling, visiting cafés or restaurants, and discussing Ukrainian culture and traditions. I also include simple grammar explanations, reading practice and small dialogues so that you can gradually build confidence and understand how the language works in real life. The main goal of my lessons is to help you learn practical Ukrainian that you can actually use in conversations.

The first lesson with Sofia was very exciting. She is attentive and has a lot of humor. Honestly, I didn't see the time pass. She explains well and her patience allows for a good understanding of things! I recommend.

My specialties
Ukrainian for beginners
Starting Ukrainian can feel a bit overwhelming, especially if it’s your first Slavic language and that’s completely normal. I work a lot with beginners, so I know how important it is to take things step by step and not rush.We begin with the basics: pronunciation, reading, simple grammar, and useful phrases you can use right away. From the very first lessons, you’ll start speaking Ukrainian in a comfortable, supportive environment. I explain everything clearly in English and always make sure you understand before moving on.My goal is to help you build a strong foundation and feel confident from the start.
Conversational Ukrainian
If you already know some Ukrainian and want to feel more confident speaking, these lessons are for you.We focus on real conversations, everyday topics, and natural expressions that Ukrainians actually use. I’ll help you sound more natural, improve your pronunciation, and feel more relaxed when you speak. I correct mistakes in a supportive way and explain them clearly, without interrupting your flow.These lessons are great if you want to use Ukrainian for travel, daily life, or simply enjoy speaking the language more.
