Hello! I’m a passionate and patient language teacher offering individual lessons in Russian, Italian, and Portuguese.
I’m originally from St. Petersburg, Russia, but I’ve been living in Italy for the past 20 years, where I also completed my university studies. My passion for languages and cultures has shaped both my personal and professional life, and I love sharing this enthusiasm with my students.
Speaking multiple languages myself, I understand the challenges of learning a new language and know how to make the process fun, effective, and rewarding. Let’s embark on this language-learning journey together!Me as a Teacher
Teaching languages is not just my profession—it’s my passion! As a language enthusiast myself, I know what it takes to learn a new language, and I bring that understanding into my lessons. I believe that every student is unique, so I adapt my teaching style to fit your needs, goals, and learning preferences.
I’m especially patient with beginners, creating a comfortable and encouraging atmosphere where you can learn without fear of making mistakes. I use a variety of materials—textbooks, videos, songs, and interactive exercises—to keep lessons engaging and dynamic. My main goal is to help you start speaking from the very first lesson, building confidence and fluency step by step.My lessons & teaching style
I use a variety of resources, including textbooks, videos, songs, and real-life dialogues, to make learning both enjoyable and effective. From the very first lesson, I encourage you to speak the language, helping you build confidence and fluency naturally.
I focus on:
✅ Speaking practice from day one
✅ Clear explanations of grammar and vocabulary
✅ A mix of structured lessons and fun, real-life materials
✅ A patient and supportive approach, especially for beginnersMy teaching material

If you're an Italian learning Russian or a Russian learning Italian, or someone like me who is learning both Italian and Russian, I don't think you can find a better teacher than Daria! The lessons are always so much fun! Thank you, Daria!

Molto carina e disponibile, si e' discusso di come e cosa studiare e affrontato una chiacchierata generale sulla lingua, dal momento che non ho mai avuto relazioni con la lingua russa.
Very nice and friendly, we discussed about how and what to study, and we generally spoke about the language too as I am a completely newbie to the language.
