Locations
Italy, Forte dei Marmi
Another classic Russian summer holiday destination is Forte dei Marmi, on the north-west coast of Italy. It seems to be a town that only comes to life in the tourist season.
Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk through the eyes of our governess Kirsten
This is a beautiful island in between Russia’s mainland and Japan. I lived in a new village just outside the expat complex. The community is made up of many nationalities working in the oil industry and the site has an English school for all their children. There are many social activities and opportunities, for example, an on-site sports centre with a swimming pool and a bar/restaurant.
Krasnoyarsk through the eyes of our Governess Sarah.
Krasnoyarsk is a south-central Siberian city with a population of over 1 million people. It is set on the very wide and fast flowing Yenisey River. It forms an important part of the trans Siberia railway, which is the longest single rail system in Russia, stretching From Moscow (9,198 km) east to Vladivostok and onto the port station of Nakhodka, the journey taking 8 days from end to end.
Moscow through the eyes of our governor Simon
I’m Simon an English teacher and governor from Bristol in the UK. So firstly, I would say: ”wow!”. The money you can earn is amazing. Not many jobs pay 1,000GBP+ per week, plus pay your rent and even flight to and from Moscow. Don’t be nervous!
Moscow through the eyes of our British Governor Mike
If you are thinking about coming to Moscow to work yet the thought of it is too daunting, stop worrying, pack your bags and get here asap. I have now been living in Moscow (with very limited Russian language skills) for 11 years. I have travelled and worked fairly extensively in other countries. I can honestly say I have found Russian people to be some of the friendliest, most generous and welcoming people I have ever met.
Moscow through the eyes of our Governor-tutor Christopher
Teaching in Moscow has been a very positive experience for me. When I first came to Moscow, I quickly noticed that there is an abundance of opportunity to teach English here, both within Moscow’s ever expanding and thriving educational sector and of course, privately.
Moscow through the eyes of our Governess Leila
Hi, my name is Leila and I'm a governess from London working in Moscow for 2 years now. I have so much to say about this city that I've chosen as my home but I'll try and keep it short.
