Дарья Желенкова

I simply can't recommend Daria highly enough. She is a fantastic Russian tutor and I have made so much progress with her. Her lessons are always different and always interesting. We've read short stories, we've played games, we've even watched Russian cartoons. Every lesson feel fresh and exciting, and I always look forward to them. Daria is smart, funny, kind, patient, interesting, and a simply wonderful teacher.

I am an adult trying to remind myself Russian that I once knew quite well. Daria is a great teacher, and I strongly recommend her! In her teaching approach she is using different techniques and formats which keep me motivated and engaged. Her lessons are funny and interesting and I clearly feel that I made a progress in the way I speak Russian. I highly recommend her!

Дарья is an excellent teacher whom I highly recommend! She is very well-organised, which makes learning with her clear and efficient. Дарья uses a variety of fun and engaging formats—videos, audios, dialogues, and more—which keeps every lesson interesting. She’s also incredibly friendly. I always look forward to our sessions!

I'm really happy to talk and learn Russian with Daria. She is very patient and friendly and that's very encouraging when making a lot of mistakes. :) I really like the topics of our classes together. Большое спасибо!

Daria has been a very good teacher for me as she keeps it interesting by constantly introducing new topics of conversation and asking questions which forces me to think in Russian. She emphasises that aspect of thinking in Russian as an important part of learning. My conversations with her in Russian have been a lot of fun and I would highly recommend her to prospective students. Sean.

Daria is such a kind, smiling and knowledgeable teacher! I really enjoy our lessons, it's fun, engaging and I learn a lot!!! I don't feel overwhelmed or uncomfortable for once, since this has been my problem with other teachers. Thanks!!
