Anna is an AMAZING teacher! We used everything we had learned so far and had a conversation in Russian. The time flew by. She is a very personable and patient instructor; I would absolutely recommend her for any beginning learners. I am also sure more advanced learners would benefit greatly from her teaching style as well.

I’ve had a few lessons with Anna, both conversation and book club lessons, and have really enjoyed enjoyed them! She is incredibly intelligent and well-spoken and able to facilitate interesting and thought-provoking discussions while also taking time to offer helpful feedback—explaining herself in a way that is helpful and comprehensible for learners. Her passion for the Russian language and literature as well as for life and various topics in general is truly inspiring. Thanks Anna! I always look forward to our discussions!

She was fine, me well... my brain wasn't working. Felt like a raw beginner.

Anna is an amazing teacher. I study multiple languages and have tried a lot of private teachers. Anna is by far the most encouraging, patient, and friendly instructor I have ever had. She is always punctual, well prepared, and organized. She also has helped me outside of class time by giving me recommendations for news and shows in Russian. If you want to improve your Russian, I doubt there is a teacher better for you than Anna.

Always very pleasent and patient with me.

Anna is overall a great teacher and I highly recommend her. She is the right balance of funny and down to earth while also being informative and educational.
