I always focus on the individual needs and preferences of the student.

Subjects of the discussions covering a variety of topics: History, Politics, Finance, Information Technology, Marketing and Business with extensive usage of vocabulary and specialist terminology.

Some people prefer a fast pace, others want to be more thorough. Either way, the best thing to do is focus on listening, comprehension and speaking for your conversational skills and vocabulary for your reading skills.

If you are a beginner and are interested in learning conversational Russian, I have a specific program designed just for you. I play no games and if I can`t teach you, I will say so. Exposure to native speakers is essential to your conversational skills. Watching Russian TV or Radio is the closest to being in the native speaker environment. It is a great way to learn new words and train your ear to the way Russian is spoken by native speakers. I will make recommendations on ways you can immerse yourself in an environment with native Russian speakers without going to Russia. Your speaking skills will be developed by us communicating during class and drills given to you to perfect pronunciation.

As for the reading skills, we can develop vocabulary studying different forms of articles, using cards to memorize them etc. Inevitably, the most common words repeat so as long as we keep studying your vocabulary should be up to par. Finally, I thank you for your interest and am confident that we can make progress in your quest of learning Russian. The key to learning is good direction, practice and hard work. I can provide the direction and guide you in practice. As for the hard work you will have to supply that yourself. If these factors are met (and I think they will be), I am confident in your success, which means my success also.
