I learned Estonian too. Let's talk Hi! I'm Nikita. I was born in Tallinn, grew up bilingual in Estonian and Russian, and now I teach the language to others. I know what this road looks like from both sides. I grew up studying in a non-native environment, which forced me to learn fast and taught me what actually works — and what just wastes your time. I've been learning languages since I was 7 and now speak four: Estonian, Russian, English and Swedish. For the past two years I've taught Estonian, so I know where learners get stuck. I teach in Russian, English or Estonian — I'll explain a rule in whichever language gets it across fastest, then switch to Estonian as soon as you're ready. Estonian has a reputation for being impossible. It isn't. It's one of the most beautiful languages I know, and once the logic clicks, it stops feeling like a wall. My lessons: You speak as much as possible. I use videos, articles and discussion questions so the hour stays interesting, and I adjust the difficulty to your level. If you're a beginner, we start slow and build. If you already speak some Estonian, we work on fluency and the natural phrasing textbooks don't teach. Book a trial lesson and tell me what you want to achieve — I'll build a plan around it.
