Instructor
I'm an MA graduate with degrees in International Relations and World Economy. Learning foreign languages, travelling and working in cosmopolitan environments has always been indispensable part of my life.
My work experience includes working on challenging projects for government and private sector (security products, banking, investment) across 5 continents, including Africa, Middle East, South-East Asia and Americas, and internship at the UN Office and WTO in Geneva, Switzerland.
I'm totally passionate about psychology, craftsmanship, motivation, personal finance and languages - I speak English, Russian, French, Turkish and a little Arabic, I also started learning Hungarian a while ago:). I'm keen on reading, sports, football, and playing the guitar.
I'm always eager to enhance and learn new skills and strive for new knowledge.
In my courses I try to combine basic theoretical knowledge with practical examples, and deliver them in reasonably short yet powerful, ready-to-implement lectures.
