" My name is Larissa Schütte. I’m from Russia. Barnaul is my hometown, a city in the Altai region in south-west Siberia. I teach both Russian and German – I taught German at Barnaul University for 11 years. I’ve been teaching for Finer English since April 2002. It’s really a lot of fun! I think it’s very important and absolutely right to make lessons student-oriented and student-centred. For one-to-one classes I couldn’t imagine it any other way. In my leisure time I love to read. But my favourite activity is mountain-walking."
