General Russian
Good Russian language skills are necessary for everyone whose life or professional activity relates to Russia. The Russian language individually is studied by both adults and school students. Spoken Russian helps to maintain communication between people of different generations in immigrant families. Also not to get confused in different situations while traveling, to read Russian classical literature in the original, etc.
I work with adults and teenagers. Russian for adults is often required by people who plan to work or live in Russia. The General Russian for teenagers can become the basic stage for their future study or work.
Russian for everyday life is not a stereotyped class in which all students get the same knowledge. I elaborate lessons for each student individually, taking into account his/her needs, the initial language level, the specifics of perception and memory.
Classes are led in a dialogue mode. In addition to the common vocabular content, students learn well-established phraseological units. Often such phrases can be incomprehensible when learning a language on your own. I explain the vocabulary using specific examples of real life situations that occur every day.
The main task of the General Russian course is to teach how to speak and understand the language. As a Russian language tutor with 12-year practical experience, I help even students with a very low language level. The duration of the course depends on the student’s goals. I make a program for each student in such a way that he/she learns Russian effectively and achieves his/her goals faster.
Expertise
For the convenience of my students, I identify some of the most popular learning directions.
For students who need language skills in a specific field, I offer specialized courses. For example, learning English for work will allow the student to increase language competence in Customs Service, logistics, economics, job interviews, and so on. For students whose professional activity requires knowledge of the Russian language, I can help master Russian language for work.
Each of these and other courses focuses on increase and accumulating vocabulary for specific goals.
Age
Curriculum for each age category has its own learning content. It is specific and relevant for each particular age and social status.
I teach teenagers topics that are appropriate for their age: school curriculum, chatting with fellows, hobbies, and so on. High school graduates and university students require more sophisticated programs to prepare for various local and international exams.
Adults are provided to study a foreign language for work, business activity and travelling.
My high international qualification allows me to realize any of these tasks which students face, and assist them to obtain required foreign language skills.

Why me
Customized curriculum
The essence of my approach is my own method of selection of active relevant vocabulary for each student individually. Tasks and curriculum are customized for everyone, depending on his/her type of thinking, speed of perception, learning goal, age, and so on. I don’t adapt you for teaching methods, I adapt teaching methods for you.
Massive speaking practice
Massive speaking practice in classes. Everyone has abilities to speak foreign language. You have them too. I pull them out of you and activate. From 4-6th lesson step by step, you start to speak. It doesn’t depend on your initial level. It’s not magic – it’s professionalism.
Comprehensible explanation
I explain complex things in a simple and comprehensible way. Based on your type of thinking, strengths and weaknesses in learning, initial level, I use such wording to make the principles and aspects of the language clear to you. When it’s clear and understandable it’s not scary.
Fluency
I am a fluent speaker of both languages, as I have been living, studied, and worked abroad (in 5 countries) for many years. Fluent speaking + excellent education + huge experience = professionalism.
Statistics
Qualification
