Privet! I'm Anna from St. Petersburg — Russia's cultural heart.
I adore sharing the real Russia: its traditions, history, and modern life. Whether you're passionate about culture or learning Russian as a hobby, I'd love to be your guide.
My approach is Free-Flow Russian: we’ll chat, explore topics you love, and make progress naturally — like friends in a cozy conversation.
Ready to begin? Let’s start talking!Me as a Teacher
Think of me not as a traditional teacher with a diploma, but as your language tutor and fellow learner. I've walked this path myself, faced the same fears, and now I'm here to be your guide and ally. Let's make Russian less of a subject and more of a shared adventure with a friend who truly gets it. My lessons & teaching style
Free-Flow Russian: Where Conversation Leads
This is not a traditional lesson. It's your personal immersion space with a language friend, not a strict teacher.
We follow real interaction. Pick a starting point:
Chat about life, ideas, your day.
Read & discuss a book excerpt or article.
Decode Russian music, memes, or jokes.
Just hang out like friends, sharing stories.
My role: your conversation partner & guide. I’ll gently correct you, explain cultural nuances, and feed you the right words in real-time — all within a natural, relaxed flow.
Goal: Learn Russian by living it, turning practice into pleasure.

The notorious first “awkward” lesson - but she made me completely at ease.
Despite the fact that she is “just” a tutor, she is sensitive, patient, empathetic, attentive and an interesting interlocutor - in short, all the qualities of a considerably more experienced professional teacher. (She also speaks several languages)!

I recommend her because she's patient and the pace she uses to speak and read is good for me as a beginner. That was a good investment in time and money.
