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. )))))

Polyglot / language lover / book a lesson - we will have lots of fun learning =) My first teaching experience was long time ago, when I was a substitute teacher of martial arts. That time I really enjoyed teaching so I decided to learn how to teach languages since I have always liked them. So I got a degree in Linguistics, afterwards I got some certificates in Teaching approach (including world famous CELTA). That time my foreign friends asked me to help them with their Russian and that was how my "Russian Teaching Path" started =) I have 5 years of teaching experience. I have been teaching small/large groups, one-to-one classes and via Skype. Moreover I have experience in teaching groups of international students in Ireland.

Conversational Russian Lessons Hi! I’m Anastasia, I’m 34, and I’m a native Russian speaker living in Germany. I have a lot of experience learning languages: I speak English, German, Spanish and a little Italian. Since I’m passionate about languages, I decided to share that passion by helping people learn my native language, Russian. I teach conversational classes where we can talk about anything. The goal is to give you speaking practice in a supportive environment. I’ll gently correct your mistakes and suggest new words and phrases. I can also prepare a structured lesson on a topic you tell me about in advance. We can also learn Russian by watching TV series or reading books, or simply work through a specific level step by step (from A1 up to C2). I have a background in Life Sciences (biology and chemistry), so if you’re interested in discussing science, I’d be happy to. I’m also a creative person, and right now I’m exploring watercolor painting. Write to me and let’s plan your first lesson!

    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! You won’t regret it ❤️

She does a brilliant job breaking down complex beginner grammar into simple, practical steps, and she gets you speaking right from day one. Her lessons balance structured grammar explanations with active conversation practice, making the learning process engaging and far less intimidating. She is incredibly patient, supportive, and always adapts the pace to fit my needs. Thanks to her guidance, my confidence in speaking Russian and understanding basic conversation has grown tremendously.

    Igor is an exceptional instructor - he is able to easily combine the expert skills of a professional language instructor with the relaxed, friendly, flexible way of meeting students where they are at. I have been taking Russian language lessons from him for five years now - and have enjoyed every lesson and made steady progress.

  • Matt

    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!

    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.
