Hi! My name is Elena and I'm a native speaker of Russian. I am passionate about teaching and I constantly develop my teaching skills. I absolutely adore sharing my knowledge of Russian with everyone who is interested in learning it.
I graduated from the pedagogical university with a Bachelor's degree in Linguistics and Teaching Methodology. I have been teaching Russian for more than 8 years now. I have lots of experience in teaching complete beginners, intermediate and advanced speak
To me it is very important to use an individual approach in teaching. I do my best to help my students achieve their learning goals. During the first lesson the student and I discuss the studentās desirable learning format and we also draw a potential study plan. My classes are fun and engaging. They are conducted in English, Russian or both.
I will help you improve your pronunciation so that you can feel more confident when talking to native speakers. We will be working on listening, speaking, reading and writing skills.
I can tell you about all the peculiarities of Russian and introduce you to the Russian culture. We can talk about everyday life, hobbies, work, goals and other topics that interest you. You can learn the language at the pace that is convenient for you.
While teaching I usually use text materials, flashcards, audio files and video files. I will provide you with all the materials we need in class.

Obviously knowledgeable and empathetic, lovely person. Considering Iām a beginner, I would have expected her to have something ready, rather than being asked what I wanted to do or if I had any materials I wanted to use. Being a teacher myself, I think itās not the studentās job. But thatās just a matter of different styles
