Hello, dear Reader! I was born in 1966 in the glorious city of Alexandrov, where, they say, Ivan the Terrible had killed his son at the end of the 16th century. Who knows what really had happened. Since 1987 I have been teaching English for almost 40 years now. I have been working as a tutor for the last 6 years. I am married, have two adult daughters and three grandchildren. I love my job very much, I like to paint in oil, swim, knit, and play the piano. Jack-of-all-trades.
