Girls, hello, my name is Alina. İ am a native Russian speaker. İ was born and raised in Russia. My mother is Russian, my father is Azerbaijani. İ live in İstanbul with my husband. İ have a specialist degree in medicine and psychology. Since my university days at the Medical Academy, İ have been interested in teaching (about 5 years). İ can teach you how to study effectively and how you can use this knowledge in your daily life. İ love explaining complex material in such a simple way that students are immediately interested in the subject. In my lessons you can not only improve your level of Russian, but also deepen your knowledge in various topics, such as art, psychology, medicine, history, etc. My lessons are structured and individual for each student. We will draw up a lesson plan in class. I use useful interactive material.

Her educational method is very modern and impressive. She can gather all the lessons together helping me to navigate easily to review and repeat, so I can remember many phrases and words with connecting them to each other as well as with their roots. She asks a lot to give examples on each important vocabulary, so she keeps me involved easily and correcting me: Oчень полезно & Mне повезло, что я её знаю.

Lately I’ve been watching some scenes from the series Poirot of Agatha Christie that Alina gave me. Together with Alina we’ve been watching these episodes in order to improve my listening comprehension as well as to learn new vocabulary. After watching the scenes we would answer questions prepared in advance by Alina. She noticed that I had some troubles describing the characters and prepared a lesson on how to describe people. I’ve had +70 lessons with Alina in the past 3-4 years and she has helped me A LOT to improve my russian. Thank you Alina :)

Lately, I've been reviewing prefixed verbs of motion with Alina. These last two lessons focused on the prefix "PO." Alina always gives examples to explain how to use these verbs and prefixes, which makes it easier to understand. When we're learning, Alina always makes sure we review the topics we've already covered so I don't forget what we've learned so far, which is great.

I really enjoy learning Russian with Alena. She is a wonderful teacher, and I feel happy in every class. In each lesson, I learn something new, and this makes me more excited to continue studying Russian. Her way of teaching is clear, kind, and encouraging, and it helps me improve step by step. Thank you for your support, patience, and for making the lessons so enjoyable.

I've been learning russian with Alina for over 2 years now. I really enjoy learning this language with Alina. She's a great teacher that always brings new methods for our lessons. Today, we read some passages from a book and analized them, allowing me to expand my vocabulary and learn new russian expressions used in daily life.

In today's lesson, Alina helped me revise the genitive case which I had totally forgotten. I learned new vocabulary and we ended our lesson by learning how to form subordinated sentences. Alina is very thoughtful and whenever she notices I have a problem with some topic she prepares a lesson to help me with it.
