I'm really passionate about what I'm doing. My students come from all corners of the globe, including businesspeople working in Russia, diplomats, NGO workers and volunteers, as well as students and university applicants. I am dedicated to helping each of my students achieve their highest goals. I have taught many individuals and groups, including entire families, taking them from beginner level to fluency. I have also successfully prepared students for the Test of Russian as a Foreign Language, up to the C2 level, among other examinations.

My lessons & teaching style

What do I consider to be most important in the process of foreign language learning? Before anything, you have to enjoy the learning process itself. The material you study, or practice should be highly relevant and interesting for you in your current situation, and the language system, vocabulary and exercises must completely fit your level, interests and goals.

Her classroom environment is both relaxed and enjoyable, fostering a comfortable space for speaking practice without intimidation. Svetlana's flexibility with scheduling and accommodations showcase her commitment to her students' success. Her extensive experience and wealth of knowledge instill confidence in trusting her teaching methodologies. Having taken over 250 lessons with various teachers, I can unequivocally state that Svetlana stands out as the best. Her expertise, paired with a dynamic and engaging teaching style, sets her apart in the realm of language education.

Svetlana is a great teacher with a ton of experience who is able to adapt lessons to her students' learning goals. Even after a lesson of only an hour I learned several new words and grammar constructions!
