Russian

Hi, there! My name is Helen and I can't wait to meet you! I've been teaching private lessons since 2009 and have loved helping my students to speak a new language, to successfully pass their exams, and to increase their language confidence. 

I grew up in Eastern Ukraine and I earned a Master’s degree in French language and literature in 2010. I'm a patient and easy going person and my teaching methods always depend on student’s age and language needs. I look forward helping you to reach your goals!

I am in love with teaching languages. Being a Russian native speaker, I can help students to understand this subject deeper and to concentrate more on speaking practice which is very important in learning language. I've been teaching Russian as a second language for more than 10 years.

Helen is so patient and very engaging. I’ve been trying to learn french for so long and she helped me get started and stay on track! She explains things very well and is very understanding. 

Helen is very patient and willing to digress onto other topics. Today, I learned about the soft-sign «ь» and how it affects the vowel/consonant before it. No other teacher has ever been willing to explain this to me!

Helen is a superb teacher — skillful, personable, patient and great fun to work with.

Helen is a patient and enjoyable person who makes learning Russian much less daunting! Her approach of explaining phrases, usage and deconstructing them is much better than dry knowledge of each of the six tenses, lots of vocabulary and complicated syntactic and semantic rules.

I found Helen because I wanted to improve my Russian speaking, reading and writing skills, after having taken Russian on and off for several years. Helen was a wonderful teacher, adapting to my learning pace and adapting her lesson plans so they filled in the gaps in my knowledge. She is patient, friendly, and explains difficult concepts very well. I feel very equipped to continue improving, and I wish I could continue my lessons with her!

Helen (Елена) gave me an excellent lesson. I have forgotten a lot of the Russian I knew, but she was very patient and helped me with words I didn't know. 

Helen is an amazing French insturctor because she's not only fluent in French; Helen's clarity is fantastic! It's very important that my instructor 
corrects my pronunciation as we move forward. Helen also gives a lot of commendation along the way, and it makes me feel good about my efforts.

Merci Helen!

Helen is a wonderful and patient teacher with a lot of experience. My Russian has improved dramatically thanks to her. 

Miss Helen is so wonderful! We are new to her classes, but she is so kind and friendly, and does a great job engaging with my children.
