Master the Basics of Phonetics: Speak Russian Confidently from Day 1

Àpd 22.47 $ /h

Are you ready to unlock the Russian language? The secret to success lies in a strong foundation. In this lesson, we will focus on the most important part of starting any language: Phonetics and Pronunciation.

What makes this lesson special? I don’t use boring textbooks. Instead, I use exclusive presentations with rich illustrative materials. These visual aids help you create mental associations, making it much easier to memorize the Cyrillic alphabet and complex sounds. What we will do together:

The Alphabet & Beyond: We’ll cover the letters, but more importantly, the sounds they make in real speech.

Articulation Training: As a professional philologist, I will show you exactly how to produce those "tricky" Russian sounds like 'ы', 'ж', 'щ' or the difference between hard and soft consonants.

Visual Learning: My bright and clear slides will guide you through every step, ensuring you don’t feel overwhelmed.

First Words: You will leave the lesson knowing how to read basic words and introduce yourself.
Who is this for?

For absolute beginners: no prior knowledge required.

Materials provided: I provide all necessary materials: a copy of the presentation, links to video or audio materials, and homework (if you choose to complete it).

Informations supplémentaires

Please have your laptop with the camera open. No prior preparation is required.

The "Giver's" Grammar: Mastering the Dative Case (А 1)

22.47 $ /h

Once you know the basics, the Dative Case is your next big step toward natural Russian. It is the case of kindness (giving), communication (calling), and even your own feelings and age!

What makes this lesson different? Forget about endless grammar tables. As a university teacher with 25 years of experience, I show you the logic behind the endings. Why do we say "Мне нравится" instead of "Я нравлюсь"? Why does your age need the Dative case? We will answer these "whys" together.
In this lesson, we will cover:

The Logic of Giving: How to use verbs like give, call, help, and tell.

Emotions & Age: Mastering the "Мне 20 лет" and "Мне холодно" constructions.

Visual Patterns: My illustrated presentations will show you the endings in a way that’s easy to visualize and remember.

Practical Practice: We will create real-life dialogues: "Buying a gift," "Calling a friend," and "Sharing your feelings."

I use a communicative-cognitive approach. First, we see the pattern in a vivid illustration, then we understand the rule, and finally, we use it in a conversation.

Elementary learners (A1): You should already be able to read and know basic Russian verbs.

Intermediate refreshers: If you are confused about when to use the Dative case. My method is based on visual logic. Instead of memorizing grammar tables from a book, you will see how the language works through my PPTX slides. This approach is especially effective for the Dative case, as it allows you to 'see' the direction of the action (to whom/for what) through images and clear patterns."

Приятного аппетита! О еде, вкусах и здоровых привычках (B1)

Bon Appétit: Food, Flavors, and Lifestyle (Level B1)
This lesson goes beyond the menu. We will explore how language describes our physical changes, the nuances of taste, and the colorful idioms Russians use when talking about food and personality.

🎯 Who is this lesson for?
Level: B1 (Intermediate).

Students who want to sound more natural by using common idioms.

Learners interested in topics of health, nutrition, and lifestyle.

What will we cover?
Word Formation: How to turn adjectives into verbs of change. For example: худой → похудеть (thin → to lose weight), толстый → потолстеть (fat → to gain weight), старый → постареть.

The Science of Food: Understanding nutrition labels in Russian. We will study белки (proteins), жиры (fats), and углеводы (carbohydrates).

Flavors & Sensations: Descriptive vocabulary for tastes (bitter, sour, spicy) and how to use the verbs «удалось» (managed to) and «пришлось» (had to) in a culinary context.

Idioms & Expressions: Master vivid phrases like:

Свежий как огурчик (Fresh as a daisy/cucumber).

Ни рыба ни мясо (Neither fish nor fowl — about a person).

С кислым лицом (With a sour face — looking unhappy).

Teaching Methodology and Materials

Lexical Approach: We focus on how words are transformed and combined in real-life speech.

Discussion: Tell us about your diet: what you had to give up and what you managed to achieve.

I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years.

The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies.

I have a thorough knowledge of the mathematics curriculum for middle and high school (from 6th to 12th grade). I am also qualified to support students in preparing for international exams such as the SAT, the OMPT, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) in all its variations: Analysis and Approaches (AA SL/HL) and Applications and Interpretation (AI SL/HL).

Throughout my years of training, I studied and developed numerous techniques that facilitate learning mathematics. The strength of my teaching approach lies in my ability to explain, in simple terms, anything a student finds complicated. I am passionate about this profession because it offers me the opportunity to guide struggling students toward success. It is a true pleasure to see them progress and rediscover their connection with the fascinating world of mathematics.

I offer private tutoring in Paris (at the student's home) or remotely (online). My online lessons take place on an interactive whiteboard. This whiteboard is specifically designed to facilitate student/teacher interaction online. Thanks to this teaching tool, my online lessons are just as effective as in-person lessons. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to participate.

As a Luxembourger, teaching this language has become my passion.
My specialty is to teach Luxembourgish quickly and completely, while ensuring that the student correctly integrates the material and knows how to converse in society and at their workstation.
Whether you are a beginner and have just moved to Luxembourg, whether you live at the border or even on the other side of the world, I am at your disposal to help you. In my lessons, I adapt targeted to your personal needs.
Here are some examples and highlights:
*Preparation for the Sproochentest test (also for nationality), targeted vocabulary, tailored to your needs (e.g. in the fields of economics, education, politics, medicine...).
*Improve your language skills
*Get to know your surroundings better by reading the magazine in Luxembourgish, laughing at jokes on the radio and understanding different dialects.
*Get a better insight into Luxembourg culture and history.
*This is a complement to your course in order to target your weaknesses.

In my teaching, I adapt to the learning conditions and the student's life in order to strengthen their self-confidence and ensure that they understand the lessons and progress.
My goal is to create an effective learning environment. I rely on the student's course, which I supplement if necessary with additional information.

Book with me and you will discover your full potential. I promise you won't be disappointed.
