Anna Shamshurina

Anna is an excellent teacher! She is very patient and makes sure to answer any questions I have. Whenever I don’t understand words or grammar in our lessons, she always explains the things I don’t understand in a way that is easily digestible. She also always makes sure to encourage me, and she is constantly telling me how she is noticing an improvement in my Russian.

Anna is a fantastic Russian tutor, and always comes to class with helpful resources. She is also able to adapt the lessons to the students’ learning style. Would recommend, especially for Anglophones and for those looking to develop more advanced speaking skills in Russian.

Anna is a very patient and helpful teacher. She is pleasant and easygoing, and at no point did the conversation lag or grow awkward. She also gave me 100% of her attention for the entirety of my one-hour session. Highly recommend!

I was a bit nervous to start Russian lessons since I am a complete beginner, but Anna has been a great teacher! She’s encouraging, kind, and fun to spend an hour with! 🙂

Anna is a gem! She is very sweet, compassionate and encouraging. She makes lessons feel easy and encourages me to speak. I was speaking from day one and conversations flow easy and never lag. Russian grammar can be quite intimidating, but Anna normalizes mistakes and simplifies explanations. I was lucky to find a teacher in the same time zone!

Anna makes me feel very comfortable, speaks clearly, and gave me great motivation to find the best approach to learning!
