About Zhanna
With 20+ years of international business experience — including leadership roles in multi-billion-dollar energy projects — I bring real-world depth to every lesson. I hold an Executive MBA from IMD, one of Europe’s top-ranked business schools, and a background in education, which helps me make complex ideas both accessible and relevant. Alongside teaching, I continue to support international teams as a strategic advisor — helping early-stage and impact-driven ventures develop investment strategies, structure communications, and prepare for high-stakes decisions. This unique blend of educational grounding, sustainability focus, human-centered leadership, and funding expertise allows me to help students and adults apply critical thinking, emotional intelligence, and communication skills across school, work, and life.

My lessons combine real-world business insight with structured, engaging methods adapted to each student’s needs. I help teens and adults develop critical thinking through **case studies, logic exercises, classic literature**, media analysis, and debate. Together, we explore how to build clear arguments, question assumptions, and recognize bias — while using **emotional intelligence** to understand others’ perspectives and intentions.
A typical lesson includes:
• A short warm-up problem or ethical dilemma
• A clear explanation of one key concept (e.g. logical fallacies, the Halo Effect, argument structure)
• A discussion or analysis — based on a real-world case, **a literary character**, or media example
• A reflection exercise or critical writing/thinking task
• Feedback, dialogue, and practical application
What you’ll gain:
• Skills to build clear, persuasive arguments
• Tools to detect manipulation and filter online information
• Confidence in debate and self-expression
• The ability to think independently — and listen deeply
• Real understanding of how emotions and logic work together
• Exposure to **classic characters** (e.g. Raskolnikov, Prince Myshkin, or Atticus Finch) as thinking role models
• Practical tools to apply critical thinking at school, in conversations, or in business
Who will benefit most from these lessons:
• High school students and university applicants
• Adults preparing for interviews or presentations
• Anyone seeking sharper, more confident thinking
• Ideal for those interested in communication, leadership, or writing
