More details about my language interests
I have studied Russian at university and I am looking to immerse myself, whilst also happy to teach English, as I have a well pronounced British accent with a very strong vocabulary and understanding of many accents and dialects from across the English speaking world. As for Russian, I am looking to improve my speaking, as I have a good foundation of grammar established. I studied French and Spanish at high school but have not studied them further but practice occasionally with tourists and friends in my very diverse home of Edinburgh, Scotland. I aspire to be a teacher once I am graduated but plan on teaching English abroad for a while, before going to university to do my secondary level teaching degree.

I am native in English and have intermediate Russian and basic French and Spanish skills. I have played many sports throughout my life, particularly rugby and football, and love teaching them along with languages and learning new ones too.

I have lived in Scotland, Ireland and the USA and am looking to spend time in a non-english speaking country.
