My students often say that I'm very patient and systematic :) I've been teaching Russian since 2014. Teaching is a deeply creative process for me and a practice of being in the moment. ➡️ Very systematic ➡️Suggested homework ➡️ A variety of materials used - videos, texts, interviews,etc. ➡️ at your pace. I'm a native Russian living now by the Black sea and previously whole life in beautiful Siberia. I’m interested in different things, the most important for me now are reading (popular science - how the brain works; classical literature, modern literature from literary awards shortlists) and contact improvisation (which I also teach in my city). Although my teaching experience started a long time ago, I still find teaching a deeply creative process and a practice of being in the moment. I have a bachelor's degree in pedagogy and a good knowledge of teaching methods. I've been trained to give professional lessons in teaching Russian at Moscow state university. I always prepare my lessons in details but I can easily improvise as well! Recently I have developed and given the course on teaching Russian as a foreign language to other language teachers. It helped me even more to optimize and clarify the approach that grew out of my practice. I offer different courses and work with/without textbooks.

Tatiana is a wonderful teacher. She has developed many very effective methods to help you remember difficult or important aspects of the Russian language. I highly recommend her to any student attempting to improve his/her Russian . Always focused on your needs, provides lots of feedback, corrects mistakes in a tactful way, organized, uses Internet materials in an efficient manner, researches tailored topics for you and the list goes on... In short a real professional !

I am extremely grateful to have such an excellent Russian teacher. Tatiana is highly methodical and structures her lessons in a clear, logical way that makes even complex concepts accessible. Each new point is carefully reinforced through plenty of well-designed practice, helping knowledge really stick and build over time. She is also incredibly patient and kind, creating a supportive learning environment where it feels safe to make mistakes and ask questions. Her excellent command of English is a real asset, allowing her to explain nuances clearly and anticipate areas of difficulty for learners. On top of this, she is exceptionally well organised, with lessons that are thoughtful, coherent, and always purposeful. Thanks to her approach and dedication, learning Russian feels both challenging and enjoyable! Already looking forward to the next lesson. Thank you, Tatiana!

Tatiana has been a fantastic teacher, she always explains grammatical structure in a very simple way, and she makes learning Russian fun. :) I will definitely take lessons again with her, when she is able to renew teaching. большое спасибо!

Our first lesson was my first attempt at learning the language after some years and ended with me feeling confident and motivated to learn more. I was worried that I would be overwhelmed but that was not the case. I couldn’t be happier ^_^
