Alina Belova

I cannot recommend Alina highly enough. Her expertise in the language and her passion for teaching make her an exceptional instructor, especially considering that Russian is known to be a difficult language to learn. As someone who struggles with language learning, I can attest to the fact that she has been an immense help to me. She made me feel comfortable speaking and practicing the language. She is always patient, encouraging, and enthusiastic, which makes the learning experience fun and engaging, even for someone like me who doesn't find language learning easy. What sets her apart is her ability to make complex grammar concepts easy to understand and remember. She takes the time to explain everything thoroughly and gives plenty of examples to help students grasp the material, even when it seems particularly challenging. If you're looking for an exceptional instructor who is passionate about teaching and dedicated to helping her students succeed, look no further!

Another great lesson! Alina has the best style of teaching that I’ve encountered. Translating small English sentences into Russian really makes me think about how grammar changes certain parts of the sentence. Highly recommended!

I would say Alina has the best style of instruction that I have used with a teacher. Her method of translating and breaking down English into Russian sentences allows me to see when exactly I need to use a new case and is the first time anyone has explained the language to me in that way. Very challenging! But she’s extremely patient and encouraging the entire way! Highly recommended!

Great lesson, Alina takes notes during the class so that you can revise afterwards and has a specific plan on how to make you progress. She also is very precise with her explanations.

Excellent lesson! I think Alina is a fantastic teacher and really has a great style of teaching. We did a small amount of speaking practice and then into the lesson. I think my favorite part is how she breaks down sentences and shows where exactly the different Russian grammar rules begin and end. Highly recommend!

Great lesson! We did a language assessment and stopped to go over new words and grammar rules which I thought was SUPER helpful then some speaking practice at the end. Really patient teacher and I look forward to our next lesson.
