"The lessons are going really well. Irina has been a really good teacher and I've learnt a lot, especially considering I had no knowledge of Russian when I started."

Do you want to keep on learning? Meet one of our native-speaking tutors for an in-person course! We offer face-to-face lessons in more than 100 languages, including Russian. Just tell us which one you want to learn and we will do the rest!
The type of courses we offer:
Face-to-Face 1-to-1 (Individual) General Russian
Russian lessons of this type are broader and are aimed towards students with a variety of requirements. While all beginner level students will cover survival Russian—needed for short visits to countries where English isn't widely spoken, or if you wish to 'go local'—those studying Russian usually go in different directions at this point, depending on what they need. Those who have benefited from these Russian classes have been those investing in or buying property overseas, those married to overseas nationals, people setting off on a round-the-world trip, enthusiasts for Russian culture and those hoping to pass a specific exam in Russian.

Face-to-Face 1-to-1 (Individual) Business Russian
These Russian Lessons are intended for people who really need to learn Russian to help make that difference in their work. For beginners, it will be useful to learn greetings and basic business etiquette; at higher levels, reading and then writing become more important. Typical students include those involved in import/export, international negotiations and acquisitions, jobseekers in multinational companies where an additional language is required, and those working with international colleagues, academia and government. Even in our most basic lesson for Beginners, students should expect to end the lesson with basic telephone Russian and Russian e-mail skills for communication as well as survival Russian required for short visits to a country.

“Калинка-Mалинка” - Ivan Larionov
Practising outside the classroom is essential when learning a language, in particular when acquiring one as challenging as Russian. So, a great way to improve your skills is by listening to music in the target language. For example, Kalinka-Malinka is one of the most well-known Russian songs in the world, written in 1860 by Ivan Larionov. If you’re looking for a light-hearted, cheerful song, this is the track for you. This song is a great way to learn new vocabulary, such as kalinka (a type of tree with red berries), malinka (a sweet fruit) and саду (in the garden). Listen to this amazing folk song.russian Songs
“Mама Первое Cлово”- Neposedi
If you’re just starting your Russian course, use children’s songs to quickly develop your vocabulary, pronunciation, and listening skills. This track is about the first word children usually say: “mama”. The cadence of the music is slow and the singer sings very clearly, so it’s a great option for beginner and intermediate-level students. In addition to mother, some other everyday words, like life (жизнь) and sleep (спать), plus some words related to the family, like daughter (дочь) and son (сын). Listen to this catchy tune here.“Куда Yходит Детство”- Alla Pugacheva
There’s no better way to learn a language than by using real-life, motivating materials, like songs and music. If you are up for a challenge, then listen to “Куда Yходит Детство” (in English: “Where Does Childhood Go?”), a nostalgic song about childhood and remembering our years of joy and youth as we grow older. So, by listening to this catchy song, you’ll learn the helpful vocabulary and everyday verbs you will need in case you have to communicate in Russian, such as найти (find), попасть (get there) and здесь (here).
