Personal Description:
Hi, I am a native Russian speaker. I originate from the St. Petersburg region which is the cradle of the classical Russian language. I speak classical (standard) Russian language and good English.
I am a teacher by profession with degrees in Chemistry, Biology, and English. I am hard-working, friendly, patient, and very good at explaining new material.
I have been awarded a Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) in 2023.
I will be happy to help anyone, who wants to learn the Russian language at any level - primary, secondary, GCSE, A-level, University, or just casual.
Teaching Experience:
Russian - all levels and all ages. I have more than 10 years of experience in private tuition to students of different nationalities, abilities, and needs including primary, secondary school, GCSE, and university students. I have also taught business Russian and casual Russian to tourists.
For GCSE students - I follow the Edexcel curriculum in tutoring the Russian language.
Teaching Approach:
For my lessons, I use a combination of a communicative approach and grammar drills. I will improve your pronunciation and I will be brushing up your phonetics and grammar in every lesson. You will be practicing your conversational skills with me in a variety of life situations.
With University students we will be discussing more complex topics and grammar structures, using authentic materials.
I have a big electronic library with plenty of books and listening files. They all are available to you for your study. You will have electronic copies of your main study books, workbooks to do grammar tasks, and audio files to listen to at home. I will provide you with additional books for home reading for pleasure.
With every lesson, your knowledge and confidence will be growing. You will learn about Russian culture and traditions too.

Tanya puts in great thought and preparation for each lesson and has a great teaching manner able to keep a student's focus even if they are not feeling in the mood. She has built a great relationship with me and my son by showing she really cares about results but that learning can be enjoyable.
One impressive aspects of the lessons has been how Tanya can switch between sources or methods if one approach is clearly now working. She is clearly a very experienced teacher and we will continue to use her excellent value service.
Tanya is an excellent tutor. She is patient and kind and explains things well, and picks me up on my pronunciation when I do not quite get it right, which I like. She gives options for learning and seems to be able to pick up on my way of learning and adapt from that, which is very clever and helpful. I have loved my learning with Tanya and highly recommend her. She is excellent and her resources are numerous too.
Thank you Tanya for al your help so far
Thank you for your very kind comments. I hope that I provide a good service and I find that I learn something from each student as well. I will continue to try to live up to your expectations.
Tanya
Her lessons are logical, well taught and well worth the money.
My daughter has written: Tanya is really good at engaging with questions about day-to-day life to help improve conversation skills and also helps build up new and interesting vocabulary. She goes over everything multiple times to help consolidate new information which I find really helpful, and always asks if I have any questions. Generally a super supportive and informative teacher :)
I am pleased that you are satisfied with my tutoring, it is always easier for me and more rewarding to have such attentive students.
Thank you for your comments,
Tanya
She approaches her teaching with consideration and care.
Would definitely recommend
Tania has a caring, compassionate, fun and direct teaching style, making our daughter pay attention and be fully engaged in the lessons. She uses a combination of visual aids, books, a laptop and physical games to keep our daughter entertained and educated simultaneously allowing her to learn whist having fun.
We highly recommend Tania as a tutor and will be remaining with her as long as she is able to teach.
I must say that it is easy teaching Victoria because she is such an intelligent and pleasant girl.
Tanya
Thank you for kind comments. I hope I can continue to satisfy your needs and enjoy working with you.
Tanya
That is very kind of you to say these things. But a good teacher is always made to look better with a good student.
Tanya.
You are a very capable, hardworking and grateful student and I am enjoying preparing my lessons for you.
It is a pleasure for me to teach you Russian language and culture.
My reason for learning Russian is that my other half is Russian and her family speak next to no English. After every lesson I feel more confident with the language, I have had many lengthy conversions with my girlfriend's Family with little to no problems.
Tanya has a very reasonable lesson price, she is resourceful with materials and adjusts teaching styles to match the individuals needs, furthermore in the lesson she provides a brief insight into the Russian culture and History.
I would recommend Tanya as a Teach of the Russian Language, she is worth every penny.
Your inquisitive mind and hard work have brought you from the basics to the high level you are at the moment. You have been on a remarkable journey in your learning and it was my pleasure just to accompany you in it.
Now you are at the gates of the whole world of Russian language and it is open for you to continue your deserved path.
Tanya
Thank you Tanya!
