Quizzes/Tests - Russian Tutors & Teachers

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Linguistics and Translation, and I possess skills and behaviors which are required for an excellent tutor. I will apply the individual approach to each student depending on his or her needs and preferences. I believe that communication is the key to the successful improvement of language proficiency and an enjoyable education process. My methodology will be based on your current knowledge of the language and your desired area of improvement. I use different types of materials (charts, tables, audio and video files, books) that incorporate grammar exercises, dialogues, and texts.

Привет! Меня зовут Вика и я помогу тебе изучить русский язык. Hi! My name is Vika and I’d be happy to help you learn Russian. ______________________________________________________________________ WHY YOU SHOULD CHOOSE ME: First of all, I’m a professional teacher and a native Russian language speaker. I taught already about 180 people (more than 4000 lessons). ______________________________________________________________________ WHAT YOU GET IN CLASS AND WHAT YOU PAY FOR: 1. You get all the materials for FREE. No need to pay for anything else besides lessons. My courses include presentations, reading, video and audio materials, online games, and programs to learn the vocabulary. I built my programs all by myself because most of the textbooks are just boring. 2. All my explanations of grammar are EASY. I teach only necessary active spoken language. Every lesson I speak with my students on different topics starting with family ending with politics and science. 3. I speak 4 languages (Hi! Guten Tag! Hola! Bonjour!) and I know how difficult it can be to learn a foreign language. I do my best to support my students and answer ALL their questions 24/7. Also, my students say I’m funny :) 4. No time wasted. My lessons are filled with information and hard work to achieve the result. ______________________________________________________________________ WHAT MY STUDENTS AND I ALREADY ACHIEVED THIS YEAR: This year was very productive. 2 of my students applied for The Fulbright scholarship program, and both of them won the contest. Next January they are coming to Russia. They will spend 9 months here conducting their research. I prepared them for the interview in the Russian language and gave recommendations as their teacher. They start learning from me as beginners, now they can live in Russia and do their own projects. I'm proud of them so much! Other results of this year: 1. Another student entered Middlebury Language School with the highest score in Russian this year. I helped her with tests and interviews as well. In the future, she is planning to teach Russian in the universities herself. 2. More than 20 students already visited Russia and Ukraine as tourists after learning from me. Some of them found here their future spouses. With me, you start talking in Russian from the very first lesson. 3. I help my students to reduce their accent and I also worked as an accent trainer for an American TV show (the show was about spies). ______________________________________________________________________ So, what are you waiting for? Let’s start learning right now! P.S. I don't teach children and teenagers under 16.

Hi there! I’m Natasha, a young BUT experienced (more than 3000 hours taught online in total) and professional teacher with an MA in Russian as a foreign language and a BA in language teaching If you… … have just decided to learn Russian and want to find a teacher who can guide you from the very beginning to the desired level OR …have already been learning the Russian language for a while, you know a bit about Russian grammar but still don’t have a complete grasp of how the Russian language works OR … have been learning Russian for quite a long time, you have a good vocabulary, you’re familiar with Russian grammar but still lack confidence speaking with Russians or are afraid you'll forget everything you've learned? HERE I AM! No matter what your current level is, I’ll be equally happy to help you! ME AS A TEACHER As a teacher I always try to create a trusting, friendly atmosphere without any pressure. BUT at the same time I give special attention to the effectiveness of my lessons. I understand how discouraging it might be (for both students and teachers) having lessons and seeing no results. That’s why you’ll have a sort of interactive map of your “Russian learning journey” and I’ll make sure you’ve assimilated each key points at each stage, in each lesson! MY LESSONS AND MY TEACHING STYLE FOR BEGINNERS If you want to start swimming in the “ Russian language ocean”, first you need to travel along the river from level A0 to A1/A2. With me you’ll always know how much progress you've made and how much is left to achieve your goal. Along the way we’ll collect everything you need to create a strong foundation for your future learning. FOR INTERMEDIATE STUDENTS My lessons for intermediate students are more flexible Depending on what you’re having difficulty with we can -fill the gaps in your grammar knowledge -broaden your vocabulary in the areas you need/want to improve -improve those of your skills where you don’t feel confident, like speaking/listening/pronunciation/ writing or reading FOR ADVANCED If you have an advanced level of Russian, I’m sure that you know well what you need, just let me know! In any case we can diversify our lessons using popular in Russia YouTube videos, series and films FOR ALL TYPES OF LESSONS Together, based on your needs and interests we’ll create a plan (10 lessons ahead). The platform we’ll use allows you to see your trail/track of learning Russian, You can see what we’ve done (all the materials, videos, audio files, comments, answers for your questions - basically everything) as well as what we’ll do next. Everything in one place! So at any time we can go back and review everything. From the very beginning I prioritise speaking on my lessons. Cause that’s exactly why you’re looking for a teacher, right? So we’ll speak as much as possible and I can assure you, you will be comfortable:) To make our lessons more effective, after each session you’ll get a homework to do. Understanding that each person is unique, I’m always open and ready to adapt our lessons depending on the situation you’re facing. If you think I could help you, BOOK A TRIAL SESSION. I’m looking forward to meeting you and to discuss your needs.

I have experience in teaching beginner, intermediate, and advanced students of various cultural and linguistic backgrounds in Tbilisi and italki for 7 years. In 2019 I moved to New York and worked in the Pushkin Academy of Russian Heritage, where I worked with children. I decided to teach Russian because this language is very rich and beautiful, also I love meeting people from around the world and share my knowledge.

During our lessons we will work on the different language skills: listening, reading , writing ,speaking . As part of the lesson structure we will cover vocabulary, pronunciation ,grammar ,fluency. I might ask to finish 5 minutes earlier if I have few lessons in row. Cancelation policy. Please read carefully! If you need to cancel a lesson for any reason please let me know.

For this reason you will be charged for the cost of the class if you have to cancel but do not notify me 24 hours in advance. For additional questions, feel free to contact me =)
