Description

I'm Polina, I love to get lost in new places, discover cultures and connect with people. I'm endlessly curious about the world around me and strive to leave a positive impact wherever I go. I love sharing stories and laughter with friends or strangers, and also trying new hobbies and sports (the more adrenaline the better!).

More details about my language interests
I would love to teach any of the languages I speak (English, Russian, Spanish) as I think it's such a great way to connect with others and learn about a culture. Similarly, it would be an incredible opportunity to learn some more languages during my trip!

More details about your skills

I've got lots of experience working with children and young people - I am a certified tumbling coach so have led many day camps as well as private classes. I also tutor students aged 11-16 maths, physics, biology, chemistry and Spanish.

I have great social media and videography skills; I have been running a social media business from 10 years old, starting off as a small YouTube channel dedicated to helping self taught gymnasts learn new skills and has grown into a community where over 150,000 invididuals passionate about sports can find mindset, injury prevention, and nutrition strategies and inspiration. I have a strong expertise in editing and can use software such as Final Cut Pro and Adobe Premier. I also have lots of Python experience, and have won awards in national coding competitions.

I love learning and sharing languages and can speak English, Russian and Spanish and have some knowledge of German.

Training as an elite gymnast from a young age and later starting cheerleading, where I have competed at multiple World Championships, I have strong teamwork skills as well as being extremely disciplined and able to approach challenges with resilience and a growth mindset.

What else ...

I am a huge fan of card games, chess, pool, darts and any sort of game that brings people together. Whilst I'm not the greatest of chefs, I do have a few recipes that I love to prepare for friends and family and love to cook as well as try new foods.
