It's always such a joy to study Russian with Ася. She's very patient, has a great ability to meet me at my level of study, uses wonderful materials, and keeps me motivated. I look forward to continuing my lessons with her!

I couldn't recommend Ася highly enough! I've done a good number of lessons with her, and she does a fantastic job guiding me through literary texts while supporting my intermediate-level skills in spoken Russian. She's patient, very smart, and flexible. I look forward to doing more lessons with her!

Cours très fascinante!

I have been studying Russian on-and-off for many years and have had many teachers. The longer I have studied, the harder it is to stay motivated and excited about learning and speaking Russian. Asya is by far the best teacher I have had in many years and has rekindled my love of learning the language. She is extremely well-prepared and always picks the absolute best topics and exercises. Whereas my Russian lessons with other teachers could sometimes drag on and feel difficult, every lesson with Asya is engaging and interesting. I'm learning more than I have in a long time, enjoying it more than ever, and it hardly feels like I'm making much effort. Often it feels like little more than a pleasant conversation among friends. For the first time in many years I feel that my Russian is noticeably improving. She is truly a gifted teacher. Thanks Asya!

Today, Asya and I watched a video of a dance school which I totally love. This helps a lot because she used content that was truly interesting and meaningful! I can't wait to have my next lesson with Asya.

She is a great teacher! I always look forward to our lessons. I've taken nearly 400 lessons on Italki in the past few years, with a number of teachers in different languages, and Ася is one of the best I've had the privilege of learning from. I highly recommend her!
