A native Russian speaker with a degree in Hispanic Studies from a leading UK university and near-native proficiency in English. I currently teach Russian online for London-based language school, helping English-speaking learners develop their language skills with confidence and clarity. My lessons are designed for English speakers who want to learn Russian with a tutor who understands both languages and can explain the differences clearly in English. If you are a complete beginner, we will start with the Cyrillic alphabet, pronunciation, and useful everyday expressions, speaking Russian from the very first lesson. If you already have some knowledge of the language, we will focus on developing your speaking skills, expanding your vocabulary, and tackling more challenging areas, such as the Russian cases system and verbs of motion. Grammar is introduced naturally, through concise explanations and practical examples rather than lengthy lectures. Where Russian and English differ, I will help you understand the underlying patterns so that you can use the language more accurately and confidently. Tell me about your goals, and I will tailor our lessons to your individual needs, creating a friendly, supportive environment in which you can make steady progress.

As a native Russian speaker, I can teach you how to speak, write, read and listen in Russian. During the lessons we will learn how to work independently with texts written in Russian, so that you would have an ability to continue developing your skills even without a tutor!
