I was born and raised in Siberia. I now reside in New York and work at a university library. I specialize in working with Intermediate level and conversational Russian learners. My sessions can be structured or non-structured depending on your needs and preferences. I have plenty of ready to use PDFs on a variety of topics to help learners with vocabulary, grammar, reading and conversation skills. Expect some lesson notes and a light homework.
I am a tad introverted which makes me a great listener. I am fluent in English and conversational in Spanish, but we will be using (basic) Russian most of the time. I also enjoy working with small groups of learners, so couples are welcome. Cheers!
Ik als leerkracht
I started teaching Russian at a local nonprofit several years ago to promote learning my native language and to help learners advance their speaking skills. I was delighted to see my students progress in conversational Russian, while having fun studying and practicing together. I gained some invaluable experience and a load of amazing teaching materials.
They say I am a talented instructor, and I think they are right. I am friendly, flexible and encouraging. I try to engage my students and make them speak Russian feeling at ease.
If you think I can help you, definitely book a trial with me. Let's have a chat and cover some of my lovely study/practice material, talk to you soon!
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
We will have fun working on my materials! We oftentimes do not finish all the sections because we get too chatty, and it's totally fine since we practice Russian!
I start with some warm-up questions, then we proceed to the topic of the lesson. I share my screen and annotate, while working together. I write on screen what we say in Russian, so you could rely on text, if needed.
My PDFs have sections with new vocabulary, an activity with images, a short reading, some fun exercises, and an opinion section with various questions on the topic. By the end of the lesson I assign you a light homework and send you our notes.
Learning and speaking Russian can be so much fun, you will see!

I can say without any hesitation that Elena is the best tutor I have ever had -- she is prompt, professional, and passionate about her students' success in learning Russian. She strikes the perfect balance between correcting mistakes and encouraging me to practice new words/phrases.
My level of Russian has improved by leaps and bounds since I started working with Elena, as has my breadth of vocabulary and confidence in speaking!
