Russian is a beautiful and deep language that is very intimately connected with the rich culture and long history of Russia and Eastern Europe. Having lived among the Russian people in multiple historic Russian cities, I have been able to learn much of that culture from my interactions with them. In addition to our grammar and vocabulary lessons, we will incorporate elements of the culture and history of Russia that will improve your language skills and build upon your ability to use the language in an understandable and correct manner that will impress native Russian speakers. We will also learn skills in reading and writing that will help you to learn faster and help you retain the things you learn. I look forward to working with you!

Добро пожаловать!

Russian language spoken by over 250 million people. It is a beautiful language that grew and developed as loyal companion to the unique Russian culture. It's development was shaped with by some of the best writers and poets in the world, such as Pushkin and Tolstoy.

I believe that teaching a language without a well integrated cultural component is akin to crime, as doing so will deprive the student of opportunity of obtaining a gateway to understanding Russian culture... and perhaps a "mysterious Russian soul."

Unlike other subjects, where a curriculum is closely followed, Russian lessons are vibrant and are designed to promote fluency in conversation reading and writing. Poetry, videos and music are are integrated into the lesson plan - making learning efficient and fun.

Students will achieve their goals to speak Russian. You will be led step by step and that will go the easy way. Nothing is impossible so are the foreign languages. Make the first step and I'll do the rest.
