Russian as a Foreign language with a Professional Tutor

From 60 € /h

I have been teaching languages for more than five years. I studied in the USA (Bard College New York), Germany (Bard College Berlin) and Russia (St. Petersburg State University, Russian State University for the Humanities) in the fields of art history, literature and pedagogy. I received a certificate of a professional teacher of Russian as a foreign language from M. V. Lomonosov Moscow State University. I am currently writing my doctoral dissertation and living in Germany and work as an editorial assistant in an art magazine in New York.

I use the communicative method. From the very beginning I motivate people to speak and overcome the language barrier. It is important for me to develop all language competences: speaking, reading, listening and writing, so that a student could use the language fluently and understand different accents. I pay special attention to pronunciation and put sounds and intonation from the first lesson.

The lesson lasts 60 minutes. Class activities are based on: textbooks; materials and manuals on grammar and vocabulary; YouTube channels for pronunciation and vocabulary; websites with exercises for developing skills in reading, listening, and using grammar. Before your first class, you will be required to take a language proficiency test.

Topics are selected based on students' goals and interests. Much attention is paid to the study of the culture and traditions to give an idea of the context of language use.

My students start speaking in 3 months! This is all thanks to the communicative method I use during lessons (I speak 30-40%, I listen 70-60%). Not only do they memorize new vocabulary and grammar better, but they learn to construct sentences independently from the very first lessons, and subsequently, to converse with confidence.

I teach: English, Spanish, and Russian.

- Communicate with native speakers
- Prepare for exams (Russian state exams, IELTS, certifications)
- Participate in the Language Olympiad and win prizes
- Improve your academic performance
- Prepare for university admission in Russia or abroad
- Travel without language barriers
- Improve your professional performance in international companies

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).

Russian literature is captivating, complex, beautiful... But also essential for understanding Russian language, culture and even its current situation. As Yevtushenko said, "In Russia a poet is more than just a poet". And this is why learning more about Russian literature is essential. As a scholar in the area of Russian studies, I've written quite a few articles on that matter, and I'm happy to share my expertise with you!
