Albina

Albina has helped me to advance to a level I never thought possible. I will be traveling to Russia in a few weeks. I am not by any means fluent, but I am going with a level of confidence that will allow me to express my needs and understand the reply. Thank you Albina!!

I really enjoy her lessons. She is always ready for lessons with pictures, videos and many topics for discuss. She is one of the best teacher that I have met on Italki. I always look forward to classes. I can recommend her for all english learners!

Every lesson with Albina is as instructive as entertaining. She is always looking for new perspectives to get me to familiarize with verbs and sentence structures and she is very perceiving. Recommended.

In a month and ten days Albina led me on my learning journey through the Russian language. We started from scratch and we just completed the A1 level. Lessons are well tailored to my needs and interests; she is a kind and patient teacher and at the same time she's able to focus on my weak points, helping me to review material and take things from the right perspective. The words of Benjamin Franklin: "tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn" are very well suited to describe Albina's approach to teaching.

As my learning progresses, I become more and more convinced that my choice of Albina as my teacher was a good one. Our lessons are now more conversational than instructional. She is an effective teacher and a pleasaant person to work with.

Going back to study Russian after more than one year of break could be very stressful and frustrating because of all the things that you forgot, but Albina made the whole experience comfortable, enjoyable, and stimulating. I'm looking forward to the next lesson
