Learn Russian with a structure, fun & real progress!
Hi! I’m Katya, a certified Russian teacher with 10+ years of experience. I help students speak Russian confidently — with structure, motivation, and joy. I’ve created my own interactive learning platform called Russian Library, where you get personalized tasks, games, and progress tracking. Whether you're learning for travel, family, or just because — I’ll help you stay on track and actually enjoy the process.Me as a Teacher
I believe learning Russian should feel exciting, not overwhelming. I work with adults from 0 to C1 and always adapt lessons to your needs. I’m patient, supportive, and very organized — you’ll always know what to do next and why. We focus on real progress: speaking, understanding, and using grammar naturally.My lessons & teaching style
Every lesson is part of a bigger system. In addition to 1-on-1 lessons, you get access to Russian Library — the platform where you’ll find everything you need to master Russian (interactive tasks, audios, videos, flashcards, quizzes, etc.)
I offer 3 learning options:
🟢 Casual — lessons + platform
🟡 Motivated — lessons + platform + Grammar Gym
🔴 Serious — lessons + platform + Grammar Gym + full access (Book Library, Video Library, Song Library)

Couldn't ask for a better teacher. I always come away encouraged to continue learning and looking forward to the next lesson. The material, knowledge and experience from Katya are, bar none, some of the best.

I've been taking lessons with Katya for about a year now and I can say that I am truly enjoying them. She is very helpful and fun to chat with. The program is very well structured and the materials are fun and engaging. I find that Katya does an excellent job providing helpful tips and tricks, focusing on the most important aspects of the language. I have found these tips and tricks very easy to remember and this results in faster progress. In addition to her program, she also offers a separate library of custom-made Russian materials. That’s right, custom made. These are exercises that students can sign up for to supplement their learning. Songs, recordings, reading, videos, they’re all great and I have a lot of fun working with them! I knew what I was looking for in a teacher and I’m I happy I found Katya. I highly recommend her!

Learning Russian as an adult is not the easiest task but alas I need to communicate in Russian so here I am. Katya has a fantastic interactive program (that has a game component). This program is unique and only Katya has it. The lesson objectives are clear and what will be covered is systematic. After having Katya as my teacher, the Russian language is now finally becoming more clear. Whenever I feel like I am not making any progress, Katya's encouragement and patience shines a light of hope in my language learning. Learning a new language is not easy but with Katya as your teacher, you will make progress and be encouraged.

I've been taking lessons with Katya for almost 6 years now. Her lessons are always interesting and instructive. As a teacher myself, I like her professionalism and her patience a lot. I always feel comfortable during our lessons even if Russian can be tricky sometimes but so fascinating. Большое спасибо!
