Engaging lessons, charming personality, and talent for teaching - Natasha embodies all of the core skills that you would want in a language teacher. I could not imagine learning, let alone progressing, with any other instructor after taking lessons with her for almost 3 years

Natasha is the best! So far, I have had almost one hundred lessons with her, and every single one was a treat. I am happy and proud of the progress I could make during the last months. And, by the way, Natasha's podcasts on italki are also worth being listened to. Спасибо большое!
