Dasha

I've been taking regular lessons from Dasha for several months now and feel her teaching is only getting better and better over time. I could not be happier with my choice of teachers and would highly recommend her to anyone studying Russian.

I finished 7 months worth of lessons with Dasha. I went from knowing the cyrillic alphabet and possessing a very limited vocabulary, to being comfortable with day to day Russian and having our lessons be conducted almost completely in Russian. Lessons were really fun, and involved a lot of conversation, reading and writing practice, as well as discussions about Russian and Ukrainian culture, food, and entertainment. I looked forward to them every week, making learning enjoyable and not a chore that I would get bored of and give up on Dasha encouraged me to be well-rounded and made sure I gave attention to all aspects of language learning - productive and receptive - covering speaking, writing, reading and listening which helped me advance really quickly. Dasha would also advise me to take breaks as necessary to ensure that I did not burn out I am immensely grateful for the lessons I've had with Dasha and I absolutely recommend her as a teacher, 9000%! Thank you so much again!

wonderful as always!

I couldn't have found a better person to guide me through the process of finding a better place to live in Odessa. Dasha helped me providing me better resources for me to save money while I stay in Odessa. Thanks a lot for the tips and links and looking forward to talking to you more in the future.

I started Russian lessons with Dasha a few months ago as a heritage speaker and I’ve had amazing development. I feel way more confident in my Russian abilities after even a few lessons with her. She always suggests interesting videos and items to discuss during our lessons, and is really open to any subject of conversation. Highly recommend Dasha if you are in a similar boat where you want to hone in on your skills.

Dasha is always amazing, this time even more so when she created a method to embed my vocabulary challenges into a fictional text that solidified my learning in an innovative way.
