Russian language from Beginner to Advanced Online and Offline
Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Russian is quite difficult compared to other languages. Although, that doesn't mean it's impossible to learn. With beginners we will work on basic rules, practice the most commonly used vocabulary and pronunciation. Advanced students will focus on Grammar, which is very neatly collected in VLLeonovich's book (one of the best books for school students in preparation for university level). Also, Russian literature and the ability to analyze it are of great importance.Extra information

About Me
I am a first year university student who knows how difficult it is to learn. I've participated AND won several language and mathematics competitions. I like to share my knowledge and skills with others.We'll use techniques and tips that I've discovered and mastered over the years as a pupil myself. Active recall of the new material, discussing topics of current interest, and actually becoming friends is the goal.
Key to success: Practice makes perfect.
Status: looking for motivated students :-)

My daughter was very enthusiastic about Palina. First of all, she knows what she is talking about and she can also explain it clearly.
Translated by Google. Click to view original.
In terms of vocabulary, I had a good foundation through Duolingo. Decided to take one-to-one lessons with Palina to also improve grammar and listening and speaking skills. Now at lesson 4 and very happy with my choice :).
After saying hello (in Russian of course) the lesson starts with a listening or speaking practice, followed by a short repetition of the grammar rule of the previous lesson and the introduction of a new grammar rule. Keep in mind, however, that the structure of lessons may depend on your level of Russian.
She's a really warm person, and a good teacher with lots of patience.
Sadly for me the "Online" schedule doesn't work out, for me to pick a language up properly i need to have someone physical in front of me.
But that is just me. I would highly recommend to take lessons from her, she's a very good teacher and very friendly
Finished our first lesson and can recommend her! We had a interesting topic to discuss and she corrects me in a nice way. Looking forward to the next lesson!
Palina is a very nice teacher. She is patient and explains things clearly with practical examples. I am very satisfied and definitely recommend her if you want to learn Russian.

I will answer all your subject-related questions in detail! Together we will go through the theory and work on the practice material. The goal: learning to LEARN. I will ensure clear agreements and a tight schedule that will support you in the learning process.
As a former student, I know the best learning strategies and mnemonics to succeed.
Latin was popular a thousand years ago, French - a couple centuries ago, English is the language of the 21st century! We'll work on Speaking and Writing skills, and, of course, Grammar. For advanced learners I fancy such books as Destination and Grammar in Use (we won't be restrained by just these, though). With beginners we'll be maintaining a decent active vocabulary.
After the lesson I'd appreciate feedback a lot :-)

Chinese (Mandarin), English, Russian classes in Amsterdam areaHello everyone! I'm a professional teacher in different areas that include languages: Chinese (Mandarin), English, Russian. I have been teaching for about 10 years since I started my bachelor’s degree in Chinese studies and world literature in Ukraine. I have also worked as an early childhood educator in Shanghai for over 3 years. I love to work with children of different ages.

I have experience in both kindergarten and home education. I have also given Russian classes to adults and I can prepare all the necessary materials for you based on your level, but you can also provide your own materials. The courses cover the following areas: general language, oral language, reading and writing.
On request: world literature and creative writing, scientific writing, Chinese calligraphy.
My background:
Bachelor's in Chinese and World Literature (Ukraine)
Master’s in Media & News (China)

The classes are based on the competencies of the European framework for languages CECRL: speaking, listening, writing, and reading.

Anna
Russian Teacher in Amsterdam (Conversational, Russian lessons)Have you ever had the wish to learn Russian and have a native speaker to practice with? Or are you struggling with these languages in school and need someone to help?
Since I grew up in both cultures, I can teach you conversational standards and more personal talk in one of those languages.
I have been teaching students to become more fluent and confident in their pronunciation and have a more vivid talking flow.
I am enthusiastic and adore languages! Furthermore, I am quite flexible with my lessons and very adaptable to any level.
Feel free to contact me!

Speaking Russian is hard unless you give it a try with me!Being a native Russian and Ukrainian speaker, I have studied at Sciences Po in France and I have now moved to Amsterdam to pursue my studies at UvA. If you are asking yourself why you should with me, just consider that I am fluent in English and French. I am learning Spanish and German.
My methods of learning foreign languages are efficient. Thus, our lessons together promise to be extremely productive, as my two-year teaching experience shows.

Russian language classes from a native speaker: grammar + practiceHey there! I am a native Russian speaker (though don't seem to be one :) ). I do NOT have experience in tutoring the Russian language, however, I've always given advice and lessons to my friends and siblings for their Russian classes — no secret Russian language can be no chill sometimes even for native speakers! I am very strong in Russian grammar and was representing my school at the Olympiads for the Russian language. I do NOT have a specific program or technique of teaching but am willing to share my knowledge and adapt to your preferences!

Andrey
Certified native Russian tutor based in Paris and available onlineMy name is Andrey and I’m a native Russian 🇷🇺 teacher living in Paris. My extensive experience allows me to vary my teaching styles. The communicative approach is the cornerstone of my teaching style but I also place a strong emphasis on pronunciation, especially when it comes to teaching Russian. For any language, I tend to select teaching materials that align with the student's personal or professional interests.
Take a look at some of my reviews (not all of them are here) and let them paint the picture for you.
In terms of my background, I have degrees in teaching French and English, and I've also studied legal translation and IT law. I've been immersed in language teaching for nearly 13 years now. My passion lies in both learning and teaching languages.
I worked with English-speaking executives from various private and public institutions, including banks and government administrations. They all now speak Russian. I know how to quickly adjust to changes in teaching methods depending on your goals. Whether you’re looking to practice conversational Russian, improve your pronunciation, prepare for an exam or a job interview I’d be happy to help you.
