Hi everyone!
My name is Kateryna Samokhvalova, I am a project director and a teacher in this online school.
Since 2010 I have been teaching Russian to foreigners from the US and Europe while being a native Russian speaker. I was born in Ukraine, where I got Bachelor in Linguistics. After that I travelled a lot throughout Europe and spent an academic year in the USA, Michigan.
I know that learning Russian and other languages is a persistent and time-consuming process that needs financial resources.
Our Russian Tutoring course by Skype will help you minimize the expenses and time spent.
Within past 6 years we have taught 128 students and developed our own unique method of Russian teaching – the effective and efficient techniques only.
Practice shows that the best result is the one that is achieved through systematic approach:
our secret method + teacher native speaker + homework + check + feedback
Home task is given in the end of every lesson. Send the task you carried out to your teacher and get a feedback.
You will be able to keep up the conversation with your business partner
Give your child an opportunity to study Russian in its original comprehensive way as it was in your school back at home
Learn how to ask questions and understand the Russian speech. The key vocabulary for travellers are in the course
If you have found your second half and he/she happens to be Russian, don’t hesitate and take a course
These three are the main ingredients of our entire tutoring cuisine. Pronunciation – Vocabulary – Grammar technique is the one we adhere to at every lesson. The further you go, the more you’ll know.
First, we’ll teach you how to say the Russian letters and, hence, put them together into words. The teacher will help you sound out the difficult «r» and remember the rules where some consonants are devoiced. If you know the letters, you will be able to read menus, signs and names of places. There are many words that sound the same but look different.
There are those essential words that every person needs when travelling overseas, like ‘hello’ or ‘how much’ or the first-hand question phrases. Moreover, students usually underestimate the importance of knowing the numbers, thus the way prices or time sound. This is what you will go through with your teacher once you guys decide you are confident with basic reading.
Russian grammar is no more complex than that of any other language. We are going to teach you the basics of our language which will point you in the right direction.
After learning you will be able to understand and speak Russian easily. Since we are teaching English and Russian both ways, you will be able to speak to a native Russian who is learning English in our online school. It’s been a good tradition for some time now. This option is free of charge after you do the Russian course
It is always a wonderful idea to learn a new language. You must have decided to do it for some reason and, of course, right now you are extremely eager to start talking. A lot of students take up Russian and expect great results right away, especially, if they have already taken Spanish or French at school. However, you need to remember that Russian is Cyrillic language and has a different grammatical structure.
Your speaking will come easier if you know grammar. You will certainly learn all common words and phrases in order to travel across Russia, although the language is not entirely flexible in case you do not know how to make up your own sentences. Our students come to understanding of this point when they learn Russian extensively for several months. The more you learn, the more you want to grasp.
Everyone begins to ask why this or that ending follows the word; and your teacher will be happy to explain everything in detail. However, one person out of five on the course gets the feeling that Russian is complicated and learning grammar is a tedious task, as a result they quit. What a bummer! The advice in such a case would be: get prepared for studying grammar, it’s easy!
Your goal is to be able to read any words in Russian correctly even unknown ones. You might have heard that reading is very essential in learning the language. However, the experience of teaching Russian to foreigners dictates something else. Students who turn to us for help want to be able to keep up a simple conversation with a Russian person. This is possible, of course, just take up about 10 lessons to learn phrases by heart.
Fluency, however, will come once you master reading. You are progressing when you discover that the notes you take during the lesson are written in Russian alphabet rather than English versions of Russian sounds. This skill usually comes around when you can read any words in Russian.
Don’t put too much pressure on yourself! Learn step by step with your online tutor rather than trying to swallow the entire cake at once. Think about this: is Russian as popular in your country as English is in hundred foreign countries? Namely, how often do you see Russian posters or listen to Russian music together with movies, etc? Exactly! There isn’t much of that nowadays. English, unlike Russian, is everywhere. A student of English does not have a hard time learning to read because English is a popular culture these days. So, if you had seen Russian all around you since you ae young, you would have known a lot more by now. So, let a teacher lead you through this
If you need to take the Test of Russian as a Foreign Language (TORFL) we can help you get prepared for this. Supervised by the Russian Ministry of Education and Science the test has a major importance for future work and education
