Hi, my name is Polina and I live in Russia, St. Petersburg.
I love teaching and helping my students achieve their learning goals. I am open to your suggestions and recommendations to make the process of learning Russian more effective and useful for you.
I enjoy knowing more about my students, so feel free to share with me your interests while practicing in Russian. I'm a good listener!

Me as a Teacher
I graduated with honours from a pedagogical university in Russia and am currently pursuing a Master's degree in education, English for young learners.
I participate in the international volunteer program “Ambassadors of the Russian Language in the World” and I'm looking forward to the first expedition where I will share my language and culture with children abroad.
My lessons & teaching style
You can approach me with any level of knowledge of the Russian language. I am ready to work with anyone who wants to learn and get to know Russia better.
With beginners we start by introducing the alphabet, reading the first words, learning the first basic phrases in Russian, and we also learn a little grammar. I follow the textbook and combine the materials with interactive platforms to make learning fun and memorable.
For students who want to maintain a high level of language proficiency I offer lessons with corrections of mistakes in conversation, which I send to you in chat and give comments at the end of the lesson on topics that you need to improve.
