Russian as second language. Learn how to speak in Russian to a high standard

Hello Everyone,
I was born in Saint Petersburg, Russia and moved to the UK in 2018.
At my classes I love coaching my students through talking to them about interesting topics and setting challenging tasks and ambitious goals for them. I really enjoy setting stretching targets for my students and helping them achieve their goals whether it is working abroad, moving to a Russian-speaking country or exams.
The most important thing for me as a teacher is to see my students speak. When we do speaking exercises, I usually write my students’ mistakes down in order to discuss them later. This way of correcting mistakes makes my students more relaxed because they are not interrupted while they are speaking.
Over the years I have developed and fine tuned my own 9 point plan to make our classes more effective. The 9 point plan includes:
• Speaking the language you learn every lesson
• Listening to engaging audio materials
• Learning how practical grammar works and how locals use it
• Expanding vocabulary every lesson
• Learning correct sentence building
• Reading fluently and confidently
• Learning how to communicate the way that locals do
• Learning to pronounce like the locals
• Building confidence in all the above using discussions and role-plays

Experience / Qualifications

Throughout my practice I’ve had lots of students who didn’t feel comfortable enough when speaking a foreign language. In order to help them to overcome their fear, I try to create a relaxing and friendly atmosphere.
If my students are not comfortable in groups, they are always welcome to have individual classes instead where they will feel comfortable.

Ekaterina is a wonderful teacher. Just what was needed!
My son says: "She's incredibly passionate. She's great at kindly explaining where and why you went wrong and how to improve. She's very aware of what the GCSE entails and is tailoring her tuition accordingly; she has plenty of really good resources."

During lessons I spend time on all aspects of the language: grammar, conversation, reading, writing, phonetics. I offer a lot of exercises so you can put into practice what you learn during the course. I also use videos, audio recordings, interactive exercises. I work with several textbooks and will send you a copy of each course in PDF format.

Russian language and literature for foreigners with pleasure and without stress!
There is a stereotype that learning Russian is painfully long and difficult, but this is not true! In any business, atmosphere and motivation are important for quick and easy progress. I know how to make your classes interesting and useful. For each student I prepare an individual lesson plan in accordance with his goals and wishes. Materials include clear tables and diagrams, games and interactive activities. During lessons we talk a lot, play, share life experiences and laugh. In addition, I am always in touch with my students: in addition to lessons, we have a chat where we can communicate outside of lessons. With me you will learn Russian and learn cultural characteristics with pleasure!
