I graduated from Saint Petersburg State University in 2019 as a classicist, confident that I'd spend the rest of my life at a desk inspired by the picturesque ancient times, the majestic ancient languages, and the paragon of literature. Struck by an overwhelming urge for vivid and fruitful communication, I turned to teaching English, where I inevitably became a participant—not only stating but also sharing, exchanging, and questioning current viewpoints and tendencies, whatever they might concern: from daily routine through history to philosophy. I'm still fond of the past, but there's nothing more valuable to me than the vibrant present and witnessing the presence of those who seek new knowledge and dare to open themselves to a brave new world of learning. Here I am to help them deepen and plunge into it.
