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.

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 :)

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.

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.

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.

They are excellent, complex and wide ranging conversations with Luba which really test the use of vocabulary as well as listening and speaking skills. Thoroughly recommended.
