I can create lessons for kids, primary and secondary school students, and adults. For two years, I lived and worked in Vietnam and can tell you a lot about this amazing country (in Russian, of course).

For each student, I create a customized program tailored to their individual needs.

I've been taking Russian lessons with Alina for a few weeks, and I'm having a lot of fun. She makes me feel comfortable and at ease, even though it's been 35 years since I studied Russian. I'm learning a lot, and I'm looking forward to continuing our lessons.
