In this 30-minute trial lesson, I’ll walk you through how our Russian classes will be structured. We’ll start by identifying your level and interests, so I can build a personalized learning plan for you. It’s also a chance for you to see if my teaching style feels like the right fit!

We’ll just talk about what interests you. I can answer your questions about Russia: politics, humor, actuall news and more. We’ll focus on the vocabulary and grammar that come up naturally in our conversations. There won’t be any pre-prepared materials.

Curious Conversations – Talk about what interests you in Russian

You’ll also get to know basic phrases for greetings, introductions, and everyday situations, so you can start using Russian right away.

First Steps – Basic reading and vocabulary for complete beginners
