Сергей is an exceptional teacher, the best l have had on Italki. Infinitely patient, extremely dedicated to the student. Super precise in pronunciation and accent. Great for conversation. Always punctual and flexible. Produces concrete, fast, and progressive results. Much more than a teacher, he is a true linguistic specialist. Highly recommended for those who really want to learn Russian well and quickly. Thank you Sergei !

Sergei’s lessons are always very engaging. I can definitely see that I have made improvements since beginning a couple months ago. I have studied Russian at some of the better public universities in the USA (Ohio State and Indiana) and I would say that Sergei’s lessons offer a comparable level of open topic conversation practice as what I experienced in both the immersive and regular class-based programs at those universities.

If you would like to train your Russian language in a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere and to learn about a normal life in Russia, Sergey is your man. He corrects your grammar or pronunciation mistakes in progress without embarrassing you or undermining your confidence. His easygoing art and great sense of humor make him a great teacher.

Sergey is definitely one of the best teachers in Italki. I have been taking lessons with him for a long time and have noticed that my Russian has substantially improved. Sergey pays great attention to details and has the patience to correct the mistakes that may have been keeping your Russian from reaching a higher level. I would highly recommend booking a class with Sergey!

Sergey is a great conversation partner.

Sergey老師非常細心地帶領我練習俄語字母發音，跟隨老師上了好幾節課，現在我的俄語字母發音進步特別大。十分感謝Sergey老師耐心又認真的指導，期待下次再相見！ Teacher Sergey carefully guided me in practicing the pronunciation of Russian letters. I have taken several lessons with you, and I have made great progress in pronouncing the Russian alphabet. Thank you so much for your patient and earnest guidance. Looking forward to seeing you again soon! Учитель Сергей очень внимательно помогал мне отрабатывать произношение русских букв. Я посетила с вами несколько занятий, и теперь моё произношение русских букв значительно улучшилось. Большое спасибо вам за терпеливое и серьёзное обучение! С нетерпением жду нашей следующей встречи!
