Hello there! I'm Arina, a native Russian speaker, and holding a bachelor's degree in linguistics. My love for languages and diverse cultures truly drives my enthusiasm. Besides my interest in learning foreign languages, I'm passionate about helping others master Russian. I’m also keen on traveling and exploring the world and different cultures. I've had the pleasure of exploring different parts of Europe and the United States. Moreover, I also love psychology, where I learn about the intricate ways people navigate various situations and uncover the motivations behind their actions. I'm experienced in teaching teenagers and adults (B1-C2 levels). I don't work with children and beginners. We will have conversation based lessons on different topics. I mostly use the DOGME approach which is all about a free flowing conversation because I believe it's one of the best ways to conquer the language barrier. We basically talk about different things. I ask a lot of questions and help you when needed. In my classes I'm very patient and determined to make the learning process as pleasant and fun as possible.

Arina is an excellent teacher. She's well-organized, funny, helpful and patient. When you don't know how to express something, she immediately helps you with precise explanation so you don't feel unsure or shaky anymore! And its important, because you start to feel more confident very soon! My main problem was confidence in speaking, so these lessons suit me and absolutely fit into my needs. At the beggining, I was a little bit afraid of the 60 min lesson, if it's not too much time but ABSOLUTELY NOT. Conversation with Arina is always going very smooth. Time flies so fast! With her approach to our lessons I'm always looking forawrd to our lesson. I would recommend her lessons to anyone. Большое спасибо еще раз! :)
