Irina Ирина

I cannot express enough admiration for Irina and her unwavering dedication as a foreign language instructor. Learning a new language can feel overwhelming, but Irina transforms the experience into something effortless, engaging, and truly rewarding. Her patience, expertise, and passion for teaching shine through in every lesson. She goes above and beyond to customize her approach to each student’s needs, ensuring that learning feels both accessible and effective. Not only is she incredibly flexible and accommodating with busy schedules, but she also fosters an encouraging environment that makes all the difference. Thanks to her guidance and hard work, I’ve made remarkable progress in my language skills. If you’re searching for an instructor who genuinely cares about your success and makes learning a joy, Irina is the one. She is an exceptional teacher, and I couldn’t be more grateful for all she does!

Irina is a very competent and helpful instructor––with her help, I have passed the C1 exam for Russian and am currently preparing to take the C2 exam. Irina provides diverse, high quality materials for lessons and is actively invested in making sure that I achieve my language learning goals. Furthermore, Irina's background in linguistics and personal interest in language learning are a huge help. Irina's language competencies allow her to better understand issues that non-native speakers have and she is able to draw many helpful connections and insights between languages. Irina has a lot of experience learning languages herself, and this experience comes through in her teaching. Overall, I strongly recommend Irina as a language teacher––I feel that my Russian has improved significantly thanks to my classes with her which are always interesting, personalised, and, above all, informative.

Irina always has creative activities and relevant topics, every lesson feels very personalized!

Patient and professional. Irina is able to teach and explain the language that allows me to fully understand the concepts that we are working on. She is always prepared and provides a variety of materials that reinforce what is taught in our lesson. She is always willing to answer questions and provides constructive feedback that progresses language learning.

I highly recommend Irina as a teacher. Thanks to her, I have been able to pass the Russian C1 and C2 exams, and I have improved in my speaking, reading, writing, and comprehension. Irina is very experienced as both an instructor and language learner, and she is very flexible with lesson plans and style, always centering students' goals.

Irene has a great intelligence that can provide you a reassuring sense that you are understood in your needs and in general. She seeks to make sure you can become as understood in the foreign language you seek greater knowledge of and even mastery of.
