Hello! My name is Yulia. I am a native Russian speaker and a certified professional teacher of Russian as a Foreign Language, living in Florida.
I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Pedagogy (English), and a Professional Post-Graduate Diploma in Teaching Russian as a Foreign Language from Lomonosov Moscow State University (MSU). With 5+ years of experience teaching adults, I have mastered the ability to explain complex Russian linguistic structures clearly and accessibly to English speakers. Thanks to my dual background, I understand the structural differences between Germanic and Slavic languages and can explain Russian grammar and syntax in a way an English speaker can understand.
Whether you are just starting or aiming for professional fluency, my curriculum is tailored to your personal goals:
Beginners (A1-A2): We will build a solid foundation, setting the stage for a deep understanding of Russian grammar. You will master the Cyrillic alphabet, reading rules, pronunciation and core grammar step by step.
Intermediate (B1-B2): We will break down complex topics (the case system, verbs of motion, verbal aspects, and complex clause structures), actively expand your vocabulary, and practice speaking, listening, writing, and reading.
Advanced (C1-C2): Conversational practice. I offer a broad range of topics- from science, medicine, and physics to economics, culture, and modern tech. We will analyze articles and publications to refine your vocabulary and capture every nuance. At this stage, your preferences guide our lessons to ensure our time is both productive and enjoyable.
I prioritize creating a warm, friendly, and low-stress environment. My goal is to instill confidence and support you every step of the way. I bring patience, openness, and enthusiasm to every lesson. I provide all necessary learning materials in PDF format, including grammar tables, articles, and audio resources.
I look forward to meeting you in our first lesson to discuss your goals and build a strategy for your success!
