Frequently asked questions

What do I need to start my lessons?

Desire to learn and have fun. I’ll provide you with all the learning materials you need. Technically speaking we will do the lessons with Zoom or Skype, I will send you the link prior to each lesson.

What should I do if I can’t attend the lesson?

You should cancel the lesson using Calendly as soon as possible. Please bear in mind our cancellation policy. If a lesson is cancelled less than 24 hours in advance (or if you don't turn up), the lesson is considered completed.

How are lessons organised?

Lessons are organised according to your goals and needs. The emphasis will be on listening and speaking skills and communicative situations that you might find in real life.

Why do the lessons last 30 minutes? Is it enough?

30 minutes is the minimum duration of a lesson, but it’s really up to you. You choose the duration and frequency of our lessons. The most important thing is to have lessons on a regular basis, not just from time to time.

How long will it take to start speaking Russian?

It depends on your effort and motivation. After our first lessons, you’ll be able to present yourself and say some basic short phrases.

Why should I take lessons with you?

I have a solid educational background and plenty of teaching experience. I’ve worked with students with a wide age range from all over the world. Most of them achieved desired goals, found jobs, friends, got official certifications, etc. But the most important thing is that my students enjoy the learning process, and so do I.
