“Tamara was my first teacher at Saint-Petersburg State University (Russia) where I studied English philology, translation and interpreting for five years. Her course was called English Phonetics and she introduced us to the whole new world of correct pronunciation of English words that we had not studied in much detail at high school before. She is very precise and has an absolute ear for sounds and managed to teach us to recognise and hear short and long English sounds, opened and closed phonemes and diphthongs. I highly appreciate her course as after coming to London to do a Master’s course at a UK university I felt quite confident speaking English and making presentations in front of an audience of 100+ people. I would strongly recommend her course to all the people who would like to sound like native speakers.”
