Gennadiy Elephantum

With 7 years of practice at Englishcraft, I've honed my methodology for engaging with younger learners (ages 6-9). I assist them in falling in love with the English language, teaching them to speak without an accent and with native pronunciation. Having spent considerable time in America, China, and Europe, I leverage techniques from English speakers around the globe to foster creative thinking in children and the ability to freely absorb information in English.

Valentin Alyoshin

I hold a pedagogical education with two majors — English and German languages. I am a professional vocal artist, psychoanalyst, and methodologist. I spent a year studying at Oxford and completed a year-long internship at AstraZeneca. For about half a year, I've been teaching English to children. Thanks to my use of modern knowledge about brain function, I implement an individual approach to each student.

Ekaterina Munares
mother of Phillip (10 y.o.)

Bravo! The tutors are all IELTS, all young. After the first free lesson, Philip immediately said — we're taking it. While the program is unobtrusive — as part of our schoolchildren's Spotlight exercises. And now I have a simple goal — to foster sustainable interest.

Natalia Sosnina
mother of Klim (10 y.o.)

My son is very pleased. He himself noticed how he began to converse better. Previously he didn't especially like English, but now he looks forward to the next lesson. Because for him, it's not just a lesson, it's a game. I definitely recommend it to everyone whose child is 'ill' with Minecraft.

Polina Bessonova
mother of Andrei (11 y.o.)

For two months now, my child has been happily studying English, playing in Minecrafter, and I plan a summer not just with a gamepad. Moreover, practicing conversational English. Starting with such a learning option turned out to be very interesting and useful. In my view, besides being interesting for the child in the form of games, the lessons develop the ability to speak fluently in English and the child is not afraid to communicate in a foreign language.

Алексей Скородумов
father of Boris (11 y.o.)

An original way to get a child to use English. It works! Well organized, with the child's enthusiasm. It's very simple to get connected and start. I recommend it.

Mother Lyubov Byuraeva

I want to express my gratitude to Kato. My son Lyub has developed an interest in the language as a whole; he now happily goes to lessons at school. He does his homework independently. And this is all under the condition that we are learning in a language school, and before this, he had a rather negative attitude towards English. He found it difficult to have lessons. But now everything has improved. And of course, special thanks to the teacher for their patience. As Lyub is extremely restless and finds it hard to concentrate. Nonetheless, he manages to maintain interest in the lessons. We are very satisfied with the classes.

Mother Evgenia Leontyeva

Valentin, thank you for your patience and persistence. I am very grateful and happy to note that the ice has broken! Looking forward to your lessons and you manage to make him talk.

Mother of Yury Belikov

Katya is a true professional in teaching the English language through games. In her lessons, Katya, on one hand, allows each student to express themselves, and on the other hand, she controls the general atmosphere of the lesson and the game. The group has a friendly atmosphere, which allows children of different levels of English and ages to play together. The stronger ones support the language learning of the weaker ones. Children, having met in the lessons, have the opportunity to present themselves in the game. Many become friends and communicate outside of the club. My son looks forward to the group classes and cherishes the individual lessons. He enjoys studying at EnglishCraft with Katya.

Grandmother of Grisha Ledkov

The lessons with Katya are beneficial. Grisha has noticeably improved with marks at school in English. We do not control the learning process with Katya, but it is clear that his conversational speech is developing. Now he does not have it, but on vacation. Later I spoke with his parents - they are more competent, they have a conversational English. Now I can say for sure that Grisha's personal communication with Katya is going well. She manages to keep up to speed all the time during the lessons, and Grisha is studying with her with pleasure. Thank you.
