Hello!! I am Karina, and I'm a professional Russian and English teacher. I have just resumed teaching after 2 years of maternity leave. I used to live in Russia before moving to India in 2021. I've learned Mandarin in my school and I've been learning french for several months. I believe that this experience has helped me gain a better understanding of the difficulties in learning a new language. Добрый день!
Меня зовут Карина и я дипломированный преподаватель Русского и Английского языков. Я учила китайский в школе и уже несколько месяцев учу французский. Я уверенна, что опыт изучения разных иностранных языков помогает мне понимать трудности моих учеников.

I've been taking Russian with Karina for a few months now. I've found Karina extremely helpful and knowledgeable, as well as flexible with times. The lessons have given me a much better grasp of Russian grammar as well as a chance to use the language in a controlled, unintimidating setting. Karina also shares various interesting and sometimes funny aspects of Russian culture which I've really enjoyed. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to learn and improve their Russian.

Мой ребенок занимается с Кариной уже год. За это время заметно подтянулся в знаниях по английскому языку. Уже самостоятельно выполняет домашние задания к школьным урокам, пытается переводить вывески на английском языке. Надеюсь, что дальнейшие занятия помогут преодолевать и дальше языковой барьер. Спасибо!

It has been a year since I started learning English with Karina and my progress is really good! Each lesson is fascinating and I always learn something new about English and our world. The atmosphere is always friendly. She gives me useful advice for learning English and she inspires me to improve my skills. Now I feel more confident than before and can talk with people without fear of being misunderstood. That's amazing.

Karina has been a wonderful teacher. She has been working with my son for over 2 months and he feels very comfortable with her. He says she is supportive during lessons, often encouraging him to speak using thought-provoking questions. As a parent, I’m most impressed with her patience and her ability to effectively redirect, if ever my son loses focus. Moving forward, we are excited about our son’s language development,and are grateful for Karina’s skillful guidance in this matter.
