Another great lesson with Polina! she makes learning Russian enjoyable and entertaining by discussing language, as well as culture and other things. Could not recommend her highly enough!

Excellent lesson as all we had yet. Polina both prepares good materials and is flexible and open. She assesses my level well, so that I'm challenged but not frustrated. I always learn new things, get more secure at issues where I'm hesitating, and am never bored.

I always love my Russian lessons with Miss Polina ! We progress fast but she also pinpoints where I need review and she is very patient with mistakes I make! I always have fun in the lessons.

I've been working on my writing recently, and Polina has very graciously been taking the extra time to correct my essays so we can discuss them in the lessons. Just another example of how she goes above and beyond.

Pola was friendly, professional and patient, correcting where necessary and encouraging dialogue. She made me feel at ease which is always a plus when attempting to speak a foreign language as a learner. I would recommend her as a tutor.

Great lesson with Polina. She keeps the pace just right while giving you plenty of time to speak and clearly explains any mistakes or doubts that may come up. The lesson is well-planned with thoughtfully chosen materials and topics.
I'd definitely recommend her
