Knowledgeable tutor with great approach for kids
Maria is a professional tutor and a kind person. My son had his first lesson with Maria and came out very happy and inspired to learn Russian. Maria’s classes are engaging and interactive. I recommend her as a tutor.

Patient, knowledgeable, and flexible
Maria has started me on a textbook that matches my level of language comprehension. She assigns homework, helps me work through words and phrases I don’t understand, and tailors the content to my specific language-learning needs. I look forward to many more lessons with Maria. Thank you!

Knowledgeable and patient tutor!
I had some Russian language knowledge but it was very simplistic and out of date. Maria has the patience to let you learn but the drive to push you that little extra. It works wonders.

Fabulous, knowledgeable, supportive and patient teacher
Maria made learning the Russian alphabet so easy to learn. I am already able to read Russian words at only one lesson! She is an experienced teacher and is very reassuring with each step. She is just wonderful!
