Darina Kostiuchenko

I've been learning from Darina for two months now. She's very patient, supportive, knowledgeable, and makes learning a lot of fun. She's really good at gauging my learning capability and feeding me new material to optimize my progress. She's easily the best language teacher I've ever had. великолепно!

I’ve had a few lessons with Darina and have already learned so much and look forward to learning even more with her! She’s so kind and patient and is very diligent about helping me with gaps in my vocabulary and providing quick and helpful grammar corrections. She’s also more than happy to discuss and explain different aspects of the Russian language as well as life, traditions, and culture in Ukraine, or really anything else! Thank you for all of your hard work and attentiveness on our lessons, Darina!

The first lesson has gone very well. Darina has been very patient and is taking time to explain things to me. I have enjoyed learning from her and plan on taking lessons regularly.

Darina is absolutely fantastic. 10/10

I have been working with Darina for several months. She is quite diligent about writing out new words and explaining the variations in grammar. Having the written record helps me to incorporate our lessons into other study materials. Darina is an uncommonly talented teacher whose lessons are interesting and funny, and I greatly appreciate my time learning with her.

It was really productive lesson. I had a lot of fun. Darina is an amazing and supportive teacher :)
