My name is Yulia. I like reading, math, and if I find a book that worth to be put on my shelf, I read it also in other languages I know, because I want to know how do the translators express the same idea in other languages. I like hiking, taking picture of nature, reading, maths, and learning new things. I have 3 children. My husband is a Japanese man and I am happy to see my children speak two languages that are so different and they combine Russian and Japanese cultures. We live mostly in Russia, but we spend long Russian school vacations in Japan. I am grateful to Italki, it gives me the opportunity to combine my desire to be a teacher and to decide freely where and when to work. I began to teach Russian firstly as a tutor and I found that this is my passion. I like to help students to master a new language, to share with a way of our thinking, culture and news. I enjoy also to correct notes on italki and to answer questions. I am a certified teacher of Russian as a Foreign Language, completed the Moscow State University’s courses. The way I teach on italki is very rich in discussions, I do my best to increase your vocabulary and to improve listening and speaking skills. I can also teach your children (both Russian bilinguals or children for whom Russian is a foreign language).

Я требовательна к себе и своим знаниям и навыкам. Видеть результаты своего труда - для меня самая большая награда. Достигнутые навыки говорения у моих учеников - это цель моих уроков. На моих уроках присутствуют все лингвистические аспекты преподавания языка (лексика, грамматика, фонетика). Каждый из этих аспектов очень важен в обучении иностранной речи. Я стараюсь подать их на уроке в интересной и живой форме.

Certified and Passionate Language Tutor& Actor | 10+ Years Using Drama to Make Learning Come Alive Hi! I’m Demi, a language tutor and actor with over 10 years of experience helping students unlock the expressive power of language. I create a dynamic, supportive environment where learners feel encouraged to explore, take risks, and grow with confidence. I believe language is, above all, a tool for human connection—allowing us to share ideas, emotions, and stories in meaningful and authentic ways. By blending storytelling, improvisation, and theatrical techniques, I make lessons interactive, engaging, and memorable, helping you develop natural communication skills, spontaneity, and confidence. My background in philosophy shapes my teaching approach, encouraging reflection, curiosity, and deeper understanding. I see language as a living, creative medium through which we interpret and express both our inner and outer worlds. To ensure each learning journey is effective and personal, I incorporate elements of psychoanalysis to better understand your personality, motivations, and learning style. This allows me to fully tailor each lesson to your unique needs and abilities, making the process both meaningful and impactful. I am highly flexible in my teaching style. I can offer structured, academic guidance focused on clarity and precision, or a more playful, creative approach that encourages imagination and exploration. My goal is to help you communicate clearly, confidently, and authentically, while making learning enjoyable, empowering, and deeply connected to who you are.

Polish, Ukrainian & Russian Teacher | Practical Lessons for Everyday Life Hello! My name is Dina, and I’m from Ukraine. I lived in Poland for 12 years, where I studied International Relations at university. I have six years of experience teaching Polish and Ukrainian and two years of experience teaching Russian. I work with school pupils, university students and adults. My aim is to help you use the language confidently in everyday life—not only complete grammar exercises. Our lessons can focus on conversation, grammar or a combination of both. I can help you prepare for school, work and everyday conversations with friends, colleagues or neighbours. We will adapt the lessons to your level, interests and personal goals. I use a variety of materials, including books, short stories, articles and current news. We read, discuss different topics, practise useful vocabulary and work on the areas that matter most to you. I try to keep my lessons practical, lively and relaxed. Every student learns differently, so I adapt my approach to the individual. A little about me: I love cats and dogs, enjoy cooking and am always happy to have a good conversation. These interests can also give us plenty of natural topics to talk about during our lessons. I look forward to meeting you and helping you make real progress!

A professional and experienced teacher of Russian (native) and English (C1) I've been working as an English and Russian teacher for 10 years. In 2000 I graduated from Kaluga State Pedagogical University, where I specialized in teaching English and Russian languages. For more than 10 years I worked in news media as a journalist, translator and editor. I'm a book-worm and hope that my true love and deep knowledge of classical and modern English and Russian literature helps me to teach. I completed a course of speech therapy and apply these insights to pronunciation development.

Russian for BEGINNERS Structured, effective, engaging lessons. 👋 Hello, I'm here to help beginners have a good start and build a strong foundation in Russian. I believe, it's equally important to work on all aspects of the target language: pronunciation, reading, writing, listening and speaking. I offer structured and balanced lessons that cover all the aspects and help you improve step by step. I also believe in human contact, clear explanations, right materials and pace rather than in AI, interactive books and much entertainment. A textbook and a blackboard in the right hands perform magic. Beginner levels (A1-B1) are like a solid foundation of a building that is not seen but should be built most thoroughly. So whatever your long-term goals are, I offer you a good start that will serve your language goals a lifetime.

Fun Russian via real life! Friendly tutor, content creator & pro with a diverse background. Привет! Меня зовут Ник (Никита), я носитель русского языка и опытный преподаватель, свободно говорю на английском, немецком и португальском. Уже несколько лет я живу за границей, где активно развиваю свои проекты и увлечения. Мой профессиональный опыт довольно разнообразен: я работал в государственных структурах, занимался инвестициями, управлял проектами (сертификация CAPM), а также основал собственный шоколадный бизнес. Благодаря этому мы всегда сможем обсудить реальные и интересные темы — от бизнеса и экономики до повседневной жизни и культурных особенностей. Я также веду онлайн-проект #Russian_with_Nick, где тысячи людей со всего мира учат русский язык вместе со мной. В рамках этого проекта я создаю полезные материалы и делюсь интересными фактами о России и жизни за рубежом. Помимо преподавания, я увлекаюсь спортом, особенно велоспортом, работаю онлайн-фитнес-тренером и люблю путешествовать, открывая для себя новые страны и культуры. На своих уроках я использую разные подходы: для начинающих — учебники и дополнительные материалы, а для продолжающих — сочетание структурированных занятий и живых разговоров на актуальные темы (Dogme-метод). Я всегда стараюсь создать дружелюбную атмосферу, чтобы вы чувствовали себя уверенно и могли говорить по-русски с первого занятия. Если вы ищете преподавателя, который поможет вам не только выучить язык, но и расширить кругозор, буду рад познакомиться с вами на уроке!
