Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
My main emphasis is daily spoken language. So I don't use old fancy materials like old fairy tales from 19th or 18th century. Although we could, of course, if you want.
I'm a big supporter of comprehensive approach. So I think you need grammar, vocabulary, speaking, and listening at the same time but I tend to concentrate more on daily spoken language.
I use whole bunch of different materials. I use textbooks, videos... Sometimes we even sing songs to improve your pronunciation and vocabulary.
Thanks again, and I look forward to hearing from you soon. :-)
I have just finished covering the alphabet looking forward to learning som vocabulary and grammar. David really goes over each letter one at a time and gives you several word of each.

David helped me to understand the genitive case in Russian grammar. I also got some great new vocabulary in Russian from the lesson. David showed me some useful resources online to help with Russian grammar and pronuciation. I very recommend.

David is a very patient and skilled teacher. He allows me to take time in my pronunciation instead of just jumping to correct me. He also gives a lot of great resources so that I can learn outside of class!
