My name is Ekaterina Iakusheva and I am a professional conference interpreter, translator and language specialist based in Germany.
I have been tutoring English and German privately for the past 8 years. My extensive international experience and numerous academic stays abroad have enabled me to approach the fluency of a native-speaker.
I have an IELTS language certificate recognised worldwide (Band 8.5 out of 9), TestDaf and Goethe Zertifikat C2. So I can also help my students prepare for IELTS, TOEFL, CAE, Goethe, TestDaf and other international exams.
My background: I graduated from Leipzig University (M.A. inconference interpreting - simultaneous and consecutive interpreting), had an academic stay at Tübingen University (exchange program) and graduated from MGIMO-University (B.A. in international economic relations). Therefore, I also tutor Business English/German and Commercial Correspondence.

METHODOLOGY
I base my lessons on a mixture of methods and approaches to meet the different needs of learners and help them accomplish their goals.
Whether you have trouble understanding the grammar, writing essays or communicating with native speakers, etc., I ensure the methods I choose are appropriate for each particular task, context and learner.
WHAT MY STUDENTS SAY
I started lessons with Ekaterina because I had to prepare for an important test in English at my university. Thanks to the lessons, both my vocabulary and grammar improved a lot. I prepared for my test with her for one semester and passed it with flying colours . Ekaterina was always well prepared and also gave me a lot of extra materials. She always had an answer to spontaneous questions regarding English grammar or usage and was able to give me more examples to help me understand the topic better.

I have been taking lessons with Ekaterina since October 2019 to brush up my language skills and I am extremely satisfied. Ekaterina always explains everything that is not quite clear to me. The learning atmosphere is pleasant, Ekaterina encourages me to learn a lot and I always have a say in which topics are covered in class.

I passed my English state exam with a score of 86 and I am very satisfied. We didn't study that long, and I would like to say that Ekaterina is a great specialist. She worked with me a lot on the oral part, and at my exam I got one of the topics we had trained before.

Hello, it's too soon to talk about achieving the result we hope for, because little time has passed since the start of our lessons. But Ekaterina prepares for classes very thoroughly and gives additional materials that are necessary for passing entrance exams at the university my daughter is applying to. She is open to the improvement of the learning process, and takes into account our wishes. Great value for money.
Tatiana
Mother of Vasilisa (student, 16)
Thank you so much for helping me prepare for my entrance exams at Moscow State University! I scored more than enough and even received a stipend. I liked having lessons with you and would like to continue them in the future - less intensively though, just to maintain my level :)

Thank you, I passed the IELTS exam with 7.5, that's exactly what I hoped for! Our frequent training was definitely worth it. An extra thanks for the speaking practice, it really helped a lot.

Sie ist eine sehr geduldige Lehrerin, die immer auf meine Schwachstellen einging und individuell auf meine Bedürfnisse Material zur Verfügung gestellt hat. Sie war immer bereit, andere Ideen der Zusammenarbeit einzubeziehen und meinen Lehrplan individuell zu gestalten, wie ich es gerade benötigt habe. Sie war sehr zuverlässig, gab gutes und konstruktives Feedback und hat mich immer perfekt auf Tests und andere Aufgaben vorbereitet. Es war eine sympatische Zusammenarbeit und ich würde jederzeit gerne auf sie zukommen, wenn ich den Bedarf hätte.
