My name is Maria. I am an Archeologist. I am bilingual speaker from Turkmenistan. I teach Frasi forb Russian speakers also for foreigners almost 3 years. I graduated from Russian secondary school which is in my town.I lived in different countries like Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Ukraine, Iran and Georgia. I got my bachelor degree in middle eastern archaeology from University of Tehran. I lived in Iran totally 8 years and I learned Farsi these 8 years. In my student years I made my career as a translator. I used translate from Russian to Persian and from Persian to Russian.
The things I like:
1) History
2)Travel
3) Learn new languages
4)Animals
5)Turkmenistan :)
Me as a Teacher
I think that the main purpose of study any language is communication. So speak at the lesson is my priority.
My lessons & teaching style
I use two methods for teaching:
First- I prefer talk a lot during the lesson. I believe that, by speaking the language which you are learning, you can easily improve and love the language and process of learning.
Second — Another method which I use for teaching: I make short texts in Russian or in Persian and with my student, we read and make analyses together: learning new words and step by step we learn the grammar.
I strongly believe that, when you are learning new language and you start with strict grammar rules is a mistake Becausee, first, probably you get confuse and second, there is possibility that you can lose your interest to the language!
I am looking forward to seeing you !

One of the best in the iTalki community. Always thinking of her students in mind, well-prepared, organized and we are extremely satisfied to continue with her curriculum. We enjoy learning languages globally and no matter where you are around the world, we are so lucky to have her as an instructor for Russian.

My lesson with Mahri went by quickly. We had a great conversation on a wide range of subjects. She is a very interesting and engaging person with an incredible knowledge of languages. I would highly recommend her if you are looking to improve your conversational skills.
