-
What is your favorite word in your language and why?
"Chuvak" which means "dude" or "bro", it's a really nice slang word that was used a lot in the past. People would say it to a male friend who they love and feel close to.
-
What is your favorite dish from your hometown? If you no longer live there is there a good local restaurant that serves it?
Dumplings is my favorite dish everywhere I go, each country has its own way of making them and you can find it in many restaurants abroad.
-
Besides the languages you teach, do you speak or study any other languages?
I'm currently studying German and Japanese, mostly by myself but if I can find native speakers I try to practice with them anytime I get a chance.
-
What are your interests outside of teaching at Strommen?
I do voice acting online, I have my own professional equipment that I use to record voices for different projects like commercials, e-learning, audiobooks and video games.
-
What do you consider your hometown? Why do you love it?
My hometown is in the north of Kazakstan and I feel so much nostalgia about that place that it's impossible not to love it.
