I am a native Russian speaker, and I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Russian literature. I have studied Russian literature in Moscow for 4 years, and last year I moved to Poland to do my Master’s Degree in teaching. I like traveling and reading, collecting postcards and going to the museums, listening to interesting stories and learning poems by heart.

Me as a Teacher
My 3 teaching credo
1) Comfort and a stress-free environment contribute greatly to the process of learning a language.
2) Practice and revision are the keys to learning a foreign language.
3) Let your students learn what they like, what they need and what will benefit them.
My lessons & teaching style
On our first lesson we discuss what your personal goal in learning Russian (academic, colloquial, etc.) is so that we can choose the most suitable way to practice Russian.
I prefer working on all four language competences and do it by using interactive methods. We can learn using textbooks, but I’d like to work with ‘native’ materials sources - books, texts, audio, video.

I have been enjoying my lessons with Daria so much! She finds such interesting topics to talk about, with a good combination of grammar and vocabulary. I have learned a lot from the articles she has assigned and she is always very patient when I mix up the cases. She always finds lesson topics that I am interested in and goes over new vocabulary with me. Daria is the perfect teacher for someone looking to get better at speaking Russian!

I'm really enjoying my lessons with Daria! She is a very patient and encouraging teacher; and this is especially important for me because I am learning Russian as an adult, in my 30s. She uses different tools and ways to teach, in order to mix things up and keep me interested. I highly recommend you give her a try if you're interested in learning Russian, at any age, with an experienced teacher.

My lessons with Daria have become something I look forward to every week. Certain parts of the Russian language can feel overwhelming to me but Daria gives the support needed to keep me moving forward. She has a structure in mind for her lessons but is flexible and patient as we work through the plans. If it's obvious I'm struggling with a topic, she finds ways to circle back to that topic in later lessons without making it feel stressful. If we talk about a certain interest or hobby, she finds ways to tie that into future lessons to make the content more memorable. Also, she has an expansive knowledge of Russian literature that makes for some great conversations.
