Private Russian language lessons, Irina Makarova
Hello! My name is Irina. I'm Russian. With me, you will learn to speak, write, and read in Russian - without stress, in a relaxed and trusting atmosphere. Your success is my job.
In 2003, I completed my studies at Tver State University with a master's degree in Teaching Russian Language. Since 2009, I've been working as a tutor, helping people who speak English to learn the Russian language.
As a certified teacher, I have the linguistic knowledge needed to explain the unique features of the Russian language, such as its system of cases, verbs of motion, differences between animate and inanimate objects, variations in verb tenses, and more. I ensure better understanding by providing relevant comparisons to English.
You will learn Russian through practical examples of its usage and in comparison with the English language. Put differently, I won't ever ask you to memorize a table of endings without explaining how you can use this knowledge.
We will study situations in which you can apply these concepts, and then you will learn the endings, but with a clear understanding of where and how to apply what you are currently learning.
First, we'll figure out your needs and level. From there on, we'll move at your pace, according to your preferences, and aligned with your interests.
However, the most challenging part for anyone learning any language is to start speaking and understanding real-life conversation. With me, you'll have a safe space to speak, make mistakes, and improve – a place where you can grow confidently.
Among other Specialties I also offer you a "Tourist course" in the Russian language: 8 sessions, each lasting one hour. We will cover the most essential tourist phrases and those specifically relevant to your trip. After the course, you will have all the phrases in both text and audio formats.
Please, note:
**If you are not a total beginner and claim to have a certain level of expertise or "some knowledge" and would like to continue your studying, tests are mandatory before the start of the training!**
My goal is your fluency of communication; let's start now!
