Before the trial lesson, you’ll receive a link to a short Google Form. It helps me learn about your goals and interests in advance. The trial will be more conversational and interactive — I’ll assess your level naturally through speaking activities and discussion. This way, we can focus on real communication and make the most of our time.

Welcome to the general Russian language course, suitable for learners at all levels—from beginners to advanced. This course offers a personalized approach, tailored to your specific learning needs.

The main focus is your progress. No matter your starting point, you can choose a program that aligns with your goals and interests. For beginners, I design engaging lessons that help you rapidly learn pronunciation, basic vocabulary, and grammar. By adopting a communicative approach, we practice these skills in real-life contexts, often using playful and interactive activities.

For learners with some experience in the language, the course provides a wide range of opportunities for improvement: from watching humorous shows with linguistic and cultural analysis to working with historical texts, conducting lexical-grammatical breakdowns, and discussing them. Additionally, I offer specialized modules dedicated to grammar, cultural aspects, and linguistic nuances.

The course is highly flexible and adapts to your learning style. Whether you prefer intensive sessions or a more relaxed pace, or if you want to use your own materials or have me provide them, I can accommodate your needs. Interested in authentic materials or focusing on specific areas like grammar, reading, or listening? Share your preferences, and we can tailor the course to suit your needs.

Once you book a lesson, I'll send you a questionnaire to understand your level, motivation, and expectations. We use Google Docs to facilitate our learning sessions. Before starting, you'll receive a document that we will use throughout the course. This document is yours to keep for completing homework, writing essays, and receiving my feedback. During sessions, I'll also use it (or our chat) to note any pronunciation, vocabulary, or grammar mistakes, providing a clear and ongoing record of your progress.

Feel free to contact me with any questions. Let's make your Russian journey enriching and enjoyable!

🧭|The Russian Journey (General Russian)

Welcome to the “The Russian Journey: Conversational Practice” course! This course is perfect for you if you already have a basic knowledge of Russian and are eager to significantly improve your speaking skills. 

In this course, we dive into discussions on a wide range of topics, from culture and history to ecology and technological innovations. During our sessions, we can engage in role-playing, organize debates, and discuss current events. The lesson format is flexible and fully tailored to your interests and preferences. Perhaps you’d like to choose a book and discuss it chapter by chapter? Or maybe you’re interested in current affairs and want to prepare a news summary for the lesson? If you’re passionate about history, you could participate in a simulation of peace negotiations for World War I, representing one of the parties. If you have a vivid imagination and enjoy working with visual materials, we can create stories using your passive vocabulary. All of this will allow you to practice the language in a natural setting and build confidence in communication.

❗This course is especially beneficial for those who study the language independently. Here, I’m not so much a tutor as I am a support and partner in your language journey. I’ll offer materials for self-study, provide tips and recommendations, but I won’t create a strict lesson plan. If you’re looking for structured lessons with homework, the general “The Russian Journey” course might be a better fit for you.

P.S. After booking the lesson, you will receive a questionnaire. Please take the time to fill it out – it will help me understand your level, motivation and expectations. In addition, we will use Google Docs in our classes (if it is convenient for you),I’ll note down your mistakes, new words, grammatical structures, and important pronunciation points. I may also leave materials there for self-study.

🎙️|Conversational Practice [B1+]

Debates offer a perfect setting for immersing yourself in a language. They engage all aspects of language learning—from active conversation to meticulous text analysis. Through participating in debates and preparing for them, you will learn to organize information, identify key points, and enhance your skills in critical thinking, argumentation, listening, writing, and speaking.

Studies show that debates are not only an effective method for learning a language but also an exciting journey that fosters communication skills and helps students discover their strengths.

Our sessions are designed to complement your primary approach to learning Russian. It is recommended to have 1-2 sessions per week to thoroughly work on vocabulary and grammar.

Before each session, you’ll receive a topic and position to prepare (your initiative here is always welcome). Additional resources will be provided to help you get ready. During the session, you'll present your arguments, engage in a stimulating exchange of ideas.

⚖️|The Journey of Reasoning (1-on-1 Debate Classes)

This is a unique language learning offer designed specifically for those who value independent study! Introducing a new format of language practice: exclusive ebooks. 

❗The first thing to note is that this format does not include online meetings. By booking a lesson, you are simply choosing the time to receive your ebook (or a link to download it), which is dedicated to a specific topic.

🔥Currently available is the first ebook for B2+ level learners:

"Почему мне страшно сказать нет?" is an interactive workbook designed for those who want to develop their language skills in real-life situations. The theme is explored through practical exercises based on a video interview with psychologist Polina Tur, which helps you immerse yourself in the context, understand communication nuances, set personal boundaries, and learn how to say no. The workbook also includes exercises for practicing new vocabulary and reinforcing the knowledge gained.

The workbook is divided into 4 parts, which can be grouped into 3 stages:

📌Pre-viewing stage — Part 1 (introductory exercises, preparation for watching the video);
📌While-viewing stage — Part 2 (exercises for understanding the video content);
📌Post-viewing stage — Parts 3 and 4 (working with the transcript and commentary, exercises to practice new vocabulary, tasks and situations for independent speaking and writing practice).

The video is 5 minutes and 22 seconds long, and the workbook consists of 19 pages.

With this ebook, you can study anytime, anywhere. There's no need to adjust to a lesson schedule—you set your own pace and choose the duration of your sessions. This is the perfect option for those who seek flexibility and independence in their learning journey.

If after completing the e-book you’d like to discuss the material, work with me on conversational situations, or have your essays reviewed, feel free to book a General Russian lesson or a conversational practice session.
