Alena Kostornaya spoke about working with children and about what kind of child she herself was.
“When my mother tells something, I think about my behavior: I would kill for this. Sometimes I work with children, I have been putting on programs for two years now. I understand: I could not tolerate such a child as I was in childhood. problems, could run somewhere and forget what needed to be done, set up a lot of people," she said.
Kostornaya stressed that she did not understand how the coaches generally agreed to work with her.
“How did Elena Vyacheslavovna Zhgun lead me from 7 to almost 13 years old? And we still managed to succeed. And now we are on good terms, I can turn to her on any issue,” the skater summed up in an interview with Lenta.
