Russian language for English speakers: grammar, reading, speaking, writing

I am a native Russian speaker and can teach Russian to English speakers. I can help you to practice grammar, speaking, pronunciation, listening, writing skills. Also can help with learning Russian from the scratch, starting with the alphabet.

During my lessons, I primarily teach my students not to be afraid to speak Russian. Before classes, I plan topics on which we can talk to expand our vocabulary, and be able to maintain a conversation on a variety of topics.

Also, classes are held in a communication format, so that students learn to understand Russian speech, to be able to ask the questions, reflect on the topic, etc.

Depending on the needs of the student, we study the fundamental grammar rules, which are most important for grammatical speech. To consolidate the material, we do various exercises and tests. Usually, these are texts with gaps that need to be filled. We also do oral exercises so that students can apply grammar rules not only in written assignments but also get used to applying them directly in their speech (which is sometimes a problem because we used to forget some rules in our spoken language).

Since Russian phonetics is quite complicated, I also select various exercises for diction, adapting them for each student (which is always a lot of fun).

I hope to see you on my lessons!

About Me

Hi! I am Arzu, Azerbaijani from Russia. I did my bachelor in law in the beautiful city Saint-Petersburg and then moved to Finland for two years to do my master program in Intellectual Property Law. Now I live in the Netherlands, The Hague, working on my startup projects.

Lately I’ve been learning a lot about business management, marketing, tourism, networking due to starting my own business that requires a lot of patience and hard work.

I enjoy traveling and organizing trips with my team.

Здравствуйте! Меня зовут Арзу, я Азербайджанка из России. Обучалась на бакалавре, факультет юриспруденции, в Санкт-Петербурге, затем переехала в Финляндию на два года, чтобы получить степень магистра по программе Право Интеллектуальной собственности. Сейчас живу в Нидерландах, в Гааге, работая над собственными старт-ап проектами.

В связи с открытием собственного бизнеса, стараюсь самостоятельно изучать бизнес менеджмент, маркетинг, туризм и связи с общественностью.

Люблю путешествовать и организовывать путешествия со своей прекрасной командой.

Reviews (4)

Very good first steps into Russian language with the help of Arzu.
Fantastic tutor! Incredibly personable, patient and experienced. Thoroughly recommended.
Arzu is a great teacher that caters to my specific needs. I definitely recommend her.
Arzu's lessons were very personalized. She takes the time to asses the level of which her student (me) is at and goes from there. She has been very open to answering any question I may come up with in between lessons and explains it in a way that is easy to understand by explaining the rules followed by example the student (me) can relate in order to get a better grasp of the language.
Помогу в изучении английского языка. Будем практиковать письменный и устный английский, работать над грамматикой. Помогу начать изучение языка с нуля. Также для ребят, учащихся в школе, буду помогать со школьной программой и с домашними заданиями. Также могу помочь с подготовкой к экзаменам как к государственным (ЕГЭ), так и к международным, таким как IELTS, TOEFL, SAT (имела опыт по сдаче каждого из перечисленных экзаменов). Так как большое внимание уделяется при сдаче экзаменов на письменную часть, будем расширять глоссарий, учиться логично аргументировать свою позицию. Большое внимание будем уделять разговорному английскому, общаться на разные темы, что поможет также расширить словарный запас, смотреть видеоролики на английском, обсуждать их.

The more detail, the better.

Any-level English with a fun, energetic native speaker
I am a professional English teacher with over 8 years experience in various teaching roles. I have experience of teaching all ages from 3 up to 65+ in group classes or 1-on-1. Specific purpose teaching such as public speaking or business English also taught. I will always make the class exciting, fun and full of laughter.

I have a wide variety of teaching materials too as I currently teach online to Chinese schoolchildren for some hours of the day. I am incredibly flexible and will have a conversation with you before the class to see what learning environment will work best for you or your child. Homework can be set too. I have just come back to Europe after spending 3 years in South Korea as a teacher to children aged 5 - 18. Before that I worked alongside children with learning difficulties for 5 years, as a sports coach and a playground designer too. Come and have a first class and see how great it is! See you soon!

Kevin
Spanish lessons for all levels, Test Prep Tutoring
Hola amigos! My name is Kevin and I am a Business Administration professional with first-hand experience in tutoring foreign students from different nationalities. My linguistic spectrum consists of English, French and Spanish, which I master both orally and written. As a native Spanish speaker, I possess significant experience in the construction of argumentative texts and academic essays in Spanish. On the personal side, one of my greatest passions are philosophy and literature. As such, I am constantly reading and translating texts in order to increase and develop my language skills. Consequently, my work methodology is mostly focused on motivating the student to speak freely and to learn by acknowledging his/her mistakes. From the beginning, I will try to address the lessons 100% in Spanish, with the aim of familiarizing the ear to the pronunciation. In terms of written exercises, it is important to know what are the student’s learning priorities. When starting with the written part, it is important to know the student is dedicated to practicing and that he will also benefit from this in his future experiences. This is why the exercises will address current social problems that allow him to be fluent when he meets other Spanish speakers. In order for the student to learn as easily and efficiently as possible, homework exercises will be given after each lesson, drafted according to the parts that the students wishes to master best (speaking, reading, listening, writing). This way, the student will benefit from a fluid learning process and, with dedication, will be able to excel in Spanish in a short period of time.

School education is an important part of a child’s life. Sometimes it can get harder to understand school lessons and and they might need extra help. By focusing on each student with individual classes it will be easier for them to understand the lessons.

Naomi
English or Spanish tutoring, all ages and abilities; Grammar, Conversation, Practice
Tutor in both English and Spanish. As a native English speaker, I am competent to teach any level from Grammar and written English, to causal conversation to improve practical skills. As a near-native Spanish speaker (C1/C2), I am competent to teach any age and ability. Having learnt the language myself, I have an advantage in teaching it to others, as I understand where common mistakes are made and student are confused. I specialize in teaching Spanish to English speakers or English to Spanish speakers, as I can communicate effectively in both languages and appreciate where common difficulties lie. I have experience teaching a huge range of students, from pre-school children to adults. I use a variety of fun, effective learning tools and methods, which will be suited to each individual student. The student controls the content and the set-up of the lessons alongside constant, informal review to ensure we are always working together to meet their goals. We work at the student's pace, ability and preferred method of learning, tailoring our sessions to meet their desired outcomes. I operate in a completely honest, open environment, where there are no such things as a stupid mistake or question!

Aurora

I also have experience in preparing for French exams such as the DALF.
