I teach adults and children of any age and any level,

The core of my approach is:

- Practice, practice, practice!
Language proficiency is not knowledge but a SKILL. Every single theoretical topic should be practiced. For that reason, all my courses are full of practical tasks.

- Having fun while learning.
Only by having fun can your studying be effective. That’s why the practical tasks of my courses are interactive games. Another crucial point is 100 % clarity of the course theory — learning objectives for every course is made clear from the start.

- Focus
There is too much information nowadays. It’s more and more difficult to navigate through it. So it’s important to have high-quality curated information for your studies: precisely what you need to address your specific needs: a real language for real life.

- Authentic language.
I provide only genuine language spoken by people in real life.

- A teacher’s mission is to inspire and to give direction, not just transfer knowledge into a student’s head.
The best result is when students can learn by themselves, and when they are motivated to use every opportunity to master a foreign language. I will readily share strategies and resources for independently studying foreign languages.

- Result vs process.
A foreign language is not about good grades. Its real purpose is to improve your life. That’s why each lesson is another step toward your better life. No unnecessary information but precisely what you need to achieve your goals.

I am a native Russian speaker and have a Master's degree from the Peoples' Friendship University of Russia, where I studied languages and history together with international students. Since foreign students did not possess the knowledge of the Russian language when they came to study, I worked with them as a tutor.

Thanks to this experience I know how to teach Russian to foreigners and will help you too to improve your level by applying specific methodologies. We will work on grammar and vocabulary. All lessons will be tailored exactly to your individual needs to help you progress quickly.

I look forward to meeting you!

Hi, everyone!

My name is Daria, and I'm a native Russian speaker and the Russian language teacher.

If you want to study the Russian language or want to practice it, you are welcome.
I teach Russian from the very beginning - elementary (A1) - to higher levels.

- During my lessons I'm trying to reach the best balance between grammar, conversation and other aspects of the language.

- I won't let you forget about things that we studied months ago, we will keep using previous grammar topics with the new ones, words that you learnt before in new topics. New knowledge won't replace the old one, words won't go into the passive memory.

- My goal is to help you understand the system of the Russian language, so that you were not limited by phrases that you learn during the lesson, but could make your own sentences. I practice different ways of making you speak - retelling texts, offering imaginary situaions, asking you many questions to help you understand what you hear and be able to react fast.

- In order to study grammar and new words, we'll be using my textbook (I will send you the pdf file) that contains examples and lots of exercises.

- We will pay enough attention to grammar, pronunciation, speaking and reading.
I will explain you the way we, Russians, talk in our everyday life, because our foundations and manners differ from foreign ones.

I'll be happy to help you learn the Russian language. Feel free to contact me and ask any questions.
