Aliia (Алия)

Aliia is a very friendly person, and I felt comfortable talking with her right away. It's clear that she already has many years teaching experience. I highly appreciate how she would explain words in Russian, without taking the easy way out and simply translating into English (which she knows extremely well). I left the class feeling successful and encouraged, and knowing that I have a number of useful words and phrases to practice. Looking forward to our next conversation!

She knows everything you want and she likes substituting all the words you know with the synonyms that you don't know. Isn't it wonderful? And she teaches you the most common expressions which give you confidence when you talk to someone else in Russian. Teacher Aliia never makes me anxious or nervous, she is such a cool person who makes you feel like you're chatting with your best friend. And I'm also happy that she knows lots of things about tons of different topics. She is open to your suggestions as well. I am convinced that I'll level up soon again. I was having a plateau in my language learning before Teacher Aliia, now it is time to rock the new levels!! Thank you beautiful person!! 🤸🏼‍♀️🤸🏼‍♀️🤸🏼‍♀️🤸🏼‍♀️

We talked about a variety a topics and it was a very enjoyable conversation. She has a great sense of humor.

Алия is very patient and encouraging during the lessons. When I make mistakes, she corrects them and helps me with new phrases so I can sound more fluent. I really appreciate how stress-free and informal the conversational lessons feel!

Great lesson talking about all sorts of things! Looking forward to our next meeting! Thank you!

Enjoyable lesson learning about how one survives winter in the far north!
