Сертифицированный преподаватель Русского языка как иностранного, сертификат МГУ. Высшее педагогическ "I'm Lyubov — which means 'love' in Russian. And I truly live up to my name! I'm friendly, funny, and easygoing. I love discussing everyday topics like family, relationships, love, and free time. I'm also passionate about traveling and history — I know my own country's history well, but I'm just as interested in learning about your country's history, your way of life, and your unique traditions. Now, a little warning: if you want to talk about computers, chemistry, or math — we'll definitely be bored together! 😄 So let's stick to topics that bring energy, curiosity, and real conversation. Hi! I'm a Russian language teacher, a native speaker, and I live in Russia. I have a pedagogical education, so I know how to make the learning process both easier and more interesting. I've been teaching Russian on Italki for many years, and during that time I've gathered a wealth of experience and teaching materials. I speak English and also understand French. Feel free to reach out — I'd love to help you on your Russian journey! My Approach I use a textbook as a foundation, plus my own presentations with exercises, games, pictures, and videos. I offer a wide range of topics to keep things fresh and interesting. I love to travel, so I truly understand how difficult it is to arrive in a foreign country without knowing the language.

Lubava was very positive, helpful, and patient. This was my first attempt at the Russian language and it was difficult but fun. I have already scheduled my next session :)

Luba has great ability and motivational skills to create the framework for challenging and interesting conversation practice. Each time the subject matter has demanded the use of wide-ranging vocabulary and rapid use of grammatical structures. Though I still make lots of mistakes, the key as always is practice, practice, practice.

Luba is an excellent teacher who is very patient and clearly explains the difficult sounds of Russian. We started with the alphabet, basic words, and grammar.

It was nice meeting and getting to know the teacher and practice some conversations in Russian, I enjoyed the learning materials and games that we did to help establish a smooth conversation in Russian, I learned some vocabulary and phrases, how to use formal and informal phrases properly, how to ask questions and how old someone is, and just focusing on the task at hand and just overall having fun learning, I honestly can say I have a good feeling about our future lessons and I am looking forward to continuing improving my Russian.

Another excellent in-depth discussion and debate about several complex and thought provoking themes which enabled the use of wide ranging vocabulary and sentence constructions. Despite my continued mistakes I could feel the process helping me develop improved speech and listening skills.
