I am a certified teacher of Russian as a foreign language (graduated from the most famous university in Russia - Moscow State University) and a native Russian speaker (my family speaks Russian). Nevertheless, I constantly take part in educational events and conferences related to teaching to improve my skills and share experiences with colleagues. I was born in Russia, but now I live in France. My credo in life is to help people. The YouTube channel “Russian language lessons for foreigners” has been created for this purpose, where you can find a lot of interesting and useful information for learning the Russian language. I have already helped people from Egypt, Spain and France to learn my favorite Russian language. I work with adults and children aged 12 and above, at any level of proficiency from 0 to C1, who want to communicate in Russian and understand native speakers. For each student, depending on their age, goals and individual characteristics, I apply various teaching methods and select the most suitable textbook. I provide all the training materials for free. My lessons are conducted in Russian for maximum immersion in the language environment. I speak Russian slowly and use English or French minimally. My lessons are comprehensive: they always include phonetic exercises, discussions on various topics and situations, grammar exercises, reading and listening texts with questions, and new vocabulary explained mostly through illustrations. At the end of each lesson, we watch and listen to various musical compositions by popular Russian performers. I teach online, using the Canva board and various platforms and services, making the lessons interactive, interesting and dynamic.
