Hello! My name is Anna Sapena. I am a Ukrainian children’s writer, poet, PhD, and founder of the School of Therapeutic Fairy Tales and Creative Writing. I teach language through stories, creativity, imagination, and real conversation. My approach is warm, inspiring, and practical. Many of my students come to me as complete beginners, so if you are only starting your language journey, I will be happy to guide you step by step. We can begin with simple phrases, basic vocabulary, pronunciation, and everyday conversations — calmly, clearly, and without pressure. If you already have some knowledge and want to practice more, we can focus on speaking, reading, listening, natural expressions, and building confidence. I create my own materials and adapt every lesson to your goals, interests, and pace. In our lessons, we can: * practice real-life conversations; * work on pronunciation and natural speech; * learn vocabulary through stories and creative associations; * read and discuss short texts, fairy tales, and literature; * speak about books, culture, childhood, family, travel, dreams, and everyday life; * build confidence step by step. I also have my own YouTube channel with fairy tales. If you already want to practice listening and immerse yourself in beautiful, gentle storytelling, you can listen to my stories here: https://youtube.com/channel/UCpN2fyTJ6zEg78skpJl_vPg?si=FFl8KSWCP1TBLxUn Send me a message — and let’s start your inspiring language journey together!

I'm a patient teacher and a passionate learner Hello! I’m Andrei, a theater director and educator from Saint-Petersburg, Russia. My journey has taken me across Europe and the USA, sharing Russian theater and culture with diverse audiences. I offer Russian lessons online for those who want to explore the language through its rich artistic heritage. My love for English has opened doors worldwide, and in 2018, I was honored as a Fulbright Visiting Scholar, teaching Russian theater at American universities. This experience deepened my belief in language as a bridge between cultures. If you’re passionate about Russian art, music, and culture, I’d love to help you discover the language in a creative and inspiring way. As a tutor, I've been teaching Russian online for about 7 years. During this time I've taught around 150 students - from beginners to advanced. Among my students I have had an American military pilot, an embassy officer in Kazakhstan, dozens of college students, and many others. It's not enough to learn grammar and vocabulary to master a foreign language. One has to be immersed into a language people really speak. So I try to create the environment that is encouraging and natural in this respect. As a person who was trained in voice and speech class in the Saint-Petersburg State Theater Arts Academy, I can also help you significantly improve your pronunciation. During my lessons I use various exercises, texts and games, as well as interviewing and retelling. I also have my own educational online resources.

5+ years teaching. Native Russian speaker, also teaching English and Italian Hi, I’m Kristina and I’m from Kazakhstan. I got my degree in Economics in South Korea and spent many years working in the international corporate world, but what I’ve always truly enjoyed are languages. I’m a native Russian speaker, I also speak English and Italian fluently, and I’m currently learning German, so I can speak a little bit of German too. I enjoy reading, watching good movies and studying languages :) Since my real lifelong passion is languages and I wanted to work with them every day, I've decided to become a full-time teacher and share my love for languages and my own learning experience with you! My lessons will be fully tailored to your needs: they can be structured classes, where we gradually unlock new levels of the language and go through grammar in a way that really helps you to speak, or lively conversations on different topics, when the language comes alive and feels natural

I am a teacher you can talk to about the learning process. Even though it is not possible to master a language without grammar, you can choose your own way and your own pace to study it at. I have a degree in finance, so my mind is relatively structured. I try to give clear explanations. In addition, I am learning three languages myself; Spanish, Finnish and Turkish, so I have a clear understanding of the difficulties you will encounter during your studies. With me you should not be afraid of speaking too slowly or forgetting words many times - I feel just as dumb when I am trying to speak in Spanish or Finnish. )))))

    Learning Russian

    Katya is a wonderful Russian teacher! She uses her own materials, which are divided into vocabulary sets, reading, grammar, and audio/writing. What I sincerely appreciate about her teaching is that her lessons are very structured, so you not only know what you should do to improve but also how to do it! She gives ample feedback on speaking and writing, but balances it well so you do not feel overwhelmed by the number of mistakes you are making while building the confidence to speak Russian at the same time. I enjoy every single one of our lessons and conversations together! Thanks to her, learning Russian has been less overwhelming for me now, more of a fun hobby to pursue. Highly recommend her! :)

It was a calm and comfortable environment with absolutely no judgement. I am already looking forward to my next class! I would highly recommend Nata to anyone starting Russian- please book with her!

    Polina is an exceptional language instructor. I usually struggle to learn languages, but she skillfully guided me through Russian grammar to get me ready for a big trip. Thanks to her patience and clear lessons, I am leaving with confidence to navigate a month-long journey through a very remote region. I am so grateful for her help and guidance. Her style is to provide resources and structure that you can always return to when you've forgotten materials from past lessons. Very handy. I've had several language instructors in a couple of different languages and Polina is by far the best tutor I've ever met. THANK YOU POLINA! Highly recommended!

You not only gave detailed feedback on my practice exercises, but also helped me review my mistakes and identify areas for improvement. In addition, the supplementary learning materials you shared were very helpful for strengthening my understanding. Most importantly, you organized the key points that I should pay attention to, which made my learning process much clearer and more effective. I truly appreciate your guidance and dedication.

    I’m a native English speaker learning Russian, and I’ve had about 12 lessons with Dustin so far. I’m genuinely impressed with the progress I’ve made, and it’s all thanks to him. His knowledge of both the Russian language and culture is outstanding, and he has a real talent for explaining even the most challenging concepts in a way that makes them click. Russian grammar can be incredibly tricky, and it’s easy to get frustrated, but Dustin is patient, encouraging, and makes everything much easier to understand. Every lesson is engaging, well-structured, and enjoyable. He has made learning Russian faster, easier, and a lot more fun. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for an exceptional Russian tutor.
