Svetlana

Excellent lesson with Svetlana. We used a method she recommended called CrossTalk where I spoke in Russian while she spoke in Spanish. It was great fun and with her help I improved both my Russian vocabulary and ease of speaking and my Spanish comprehension. Next time we will switch roles and I'm very much looking forward to working more with Svetlana on my Spanish and Russian. Recommend her highly for those learning Russian or Spanish.

Me encantó hablar con Svetlana, es una profesora súper buena y fue una conversación entretenida. Poco a poco me fui soltando en Ruso porque me hizo sentir muy cómoda. Es paciente y una presencia tranquila. Voy corriendo a reservar más clases con ella ❤ Muchas gracias Svetlana

My favourite italki lesson ever (and I have had many lessons over the past few months for four different languages)! Svetlana is a genuine polyglot, and her experience of learning languages is very useful if you're a language learner yourself. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone learning Russian!

Большое спасибо за урок)

I came into my very first Russian lesson completely riddled with anxiety and worry about looking silly, Svetlana took a very friendly and calm approach when the lesson started, and helped me feel comfortable even when learning something completely new, She was encouraging and really made me laugh and smile at my mistakes, which left me feeling really excited for another lesson rather than embarrassed. If anyone reading this is concerned about being embarrassed or is nervous like I am, I recommend Svetlana without a shadow of a doubt, I believe she is capable of teaching every type of person in a way that makes it a joy to learn. So very excited to start my Russian learning journey with her!

Learning with Svetalana is always a pleasure. She is patient, funny and explains very well with great practical examples!
