Certified teacher with YouTube comprehensible input channel Hello! I’m Nikita, a native Russian speaker fluent in English and Spanish. Born in Veliky Novgorod—the heart of Russian history—I now live in St. Petersburg. I’m passionate about music, psychology, art, and exploring different cultures. Teaching Russian as a foreign language is a conscious and meaningful choice for me. It’s not just a job, but a way to help people, share my knowledge, and build genuine connections. I treat every student with care, empathy, and respect. Because everyone learns differently, I combine traditional and modern teaching methods. Whether you need a structured approach to master Russian grammar (I hold a grammar teaching certificate) or prefer natural acquisition methods like Comprehensible Input and Crosstalk, I’ve got you covered. If you aren't sure which path is best for you, I’m happy to guide you. Beyond language, we can discuss anything—from philosophy and classical music to memes or martial arts. I truly believe that we are all connected, and I’d be happy to support you on your language journey. Looking forward to meeting you!

So I'm showing all of the sights, all of the hidden gems that only locals know, and my personal favorites. But I'm also exploring it again and again every single time I go on one of these walks.

I love Dostoevsky 💅 My students often say they immediately feel like they've known me for ages. I skip the “serious teacher” act for real talk and laughter (spoiler: mistakes are secretly your superpower 💥) Here’s the deal: ✔️ Think games, memes, and convo topics that actually interest you (yes, even soccer rants, TikTok trends, Russian meme culture, or debating the best борщ recipe) ✔️ Zero judgment, 100% encouragement. I’m the human version of a confidence boost 💪🔥 ✔️ Lessons so chill, you’ll forget you’re studying… until you realize: “hey, I just nailed that grammar rule!” 🎉

Native Russian & Ukrainian teacher | 5 years’ experience | Speaking & Callan Method Hi! I’m Alexander — a native Russian and Ukrainian speaker and a teacher with almost 5 years of experience. I’m a patient and attentive teacher. I try to understand what each student really needs: speaking practice, grammar, pronunciation, vocabulary or simply more confidence when communicating. I’m also a learner myself, so I understand how important support is and how helpful it is not to be afraid of making mistakes. I offer several types of lessons: 🗣 Conversation Practice — we talk about topics you’re interested in. I correct your mistakes, explain them and write down useful words and phrases. 📚 Comprehensive Lessons — we work on pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary and speaking using textbooks and additional materials. ⚡ Callan Method — we speak a lot, work with questions and answers, and immediately use new vocabulary in practice. I also use pictures to help you remember words and understand them in context. We can discuss news, movies, travel, everyday life and many other interesting topics. I’m also a big fan of cars. 😊 My goal is to help you speak Russian or Ukrainian more freely and confidently. Let’s enjoy learning together!

Talkative classes of Ukrainian and Russian languages I finished 11 years of school and 5 years of University. Got a scholarship as a smart student and became the happy owner of a diploma from Kyiv Aviation University with direction -international economy. Did homework with kids and prepared them for exams, wrote articles for a foreign company, worked at a TV channel, and as a manager in a crypto company, had the position of team leader in an international company; know how to organize communication and work processes, make analyses of work activities, and guide people to the best results. Now, fate brought me far away from my motherland; and for more than 4 years, I am a Ukrainian immigrant in Holland. The Role of a Teacher I had many teachers during my life, but the most unforgettable became those, who were firstly good and open, kind and caring, smiling and cheerful people. Then - smart and professional ones. Like a person with the position here as a «community tutor», I will put all my efforts to be professionally the best one for you and leave warm memories of hours spent together. Sharing Knowledge Everything depends on your needs and in which form it will be easier for you to get knowledge. The program will be built according to this.
