Private Ukrainian lessons. LEARN UKRAINIAN EASILY WITH ME. "Unlock the World: Elevate Your Life with Ukrainian Language Lessons!"
As a Ukrainian teacher for foreigners with varying language proficiency levels, I hold a unique and pivotal role in the realm of education. I am in touch with my students almost all the time. We are not only practicing grammar and vocabulary, but we are also experiencing a love of Ukrainian culture together. There is no place for constant boring theory and mindless rote memorization. My values are trust, understanding and love. My dedication to imparting the Ukrainian language to a diverse group of learners has shaped an identity, fostering a rich tapestry of experiences, skills, and qualities that make an invaluable asset in the field of education. I love seeing and participating in my students' interest in the Ukrainian language. What warms my heart the most is their curiosity about every detail and exception. Especially when they want to look for new things for themselves and then tell me about what they have found with a twinkle in their eye.

Financial literacy is an important skill for kids to learn at an early age. I know many adults who would have loved learning about it earlier. They will learn about saving money, spending money wisely, and managing their finances. First, they will learn and think about how and why saving money: - short-term and long-term goals they can save for (e.g. a toy, a trip, college education). - how to create a budget and track their spending. - Compound interest and the impact of starting to save early. How to spend money wisely: - difference between needs and wants. - how to compare prices and make informed purchasing decisions. - learn what is impulse buying and method to take the time to think before spending. How to managing money: - Keeping track of spending and creating a budget - Different types of bank accounts, type of money and currencies - learn what are credits, how they work and how it can impact their finances in the future. This class is made for kids, so it'll include use games, puzzles, and interactive activities to help them understand the concepts while having fun.

I will help you to be among the speakers of the eighth most spoken language in the world. My lessons have been designed to give you a broad knowledge of the language, and include the four main disciplines of language learning: reading, writing, speaking and listening. I consider it important to keep the balance between practice and theory during the course for that the geography, the culture, the traditions, the civilization of Russia are an integral part of the courses.

Private lessons for adults include conversation, reading, writing and comprehension.
I teach Russian professionally with correct pronunciation, and I also teach colloquial Russian, which is the street language that people use in their daily lives, due to my work in Russia for many years and teaching this language for several years. What you learn with me is not taught in typical courses, whether at an institute or at the Faculty of Languages, because they simply focus most of the time on grammar and not on the real conversations that you need. Otherwise, I will send you exercises and audio clips to exercise at home using your mobile, tablet or laptop. The course is to the point and your pronunciation of the Russian language will be excellent, close to the way the Russians speak themselves, but on the condition that you work with me properly and make an effort, as I will tell you, in order to progress quickly in the language. The Russian language lecture is an hour and a half. 3 levels, each level has 10 lectures, 15 hours for each level You will feel a big difference after each level in the way you understand the Russian language and the extent of your comprehension of what is said in this beautiful language. Not only do I teach you traditional Russian, I also teach you colloquial Russian, which is a little different from the book language and which people use in their daily lives and on the street. It also teaches you many customs of the Russian people, their culture and their way of thinking if you want to travel to Russia. Note: You can learn as much as you want at any time. After the first level, it will improve Your level is high, and if you continue in the levels package, your level will gradually increase significantly. You will be alone in the lecture, there is no one else with you to achieve maximum benefit For online lectures, reservations and payment for the lecture must be made one day before the lecture. Lectures are available offline or online as desired.

Ilia
Russian Language A1 - C2 / Русский язык и литература
Hi All, thank you for checking out my course. This class is open to students of all levels. Whether you are only starting to learn the wild-looking letters of the Cyrillic alphabet, or whether you are looking to practise your written and spoken Russian, I would be delighted to accompany you at any stage of your Russian-learning journey. For more advanced students, I would be happy to help you get to know one of the most defining aspects of the Russian language, namely its novels and poetry, which would be a great way to learn about the 'mysterious' Russian soul. I believe that studying in three different countries have allowed me to try out and assess various approaches to education in general and teaching languages in particular - from the rigourous Russian system based on ensuring that the students will obtain exceptional spelling, grammar, syntax and punctuation skills, to the more relaxed yet more critical and analytical Western approach, focused on problem-solving and independent work. You will get the benefit of a vast bank of techniques, methods and learning materials that I have developed and accumulated over the past year will be used in class to pique and maintain your interest. And since I was once a language student too, I would be able to share my personal tips and tricks with you to help you reach whatever goal you have set for yourself - be it being able to wow your friends and family by reciting a poem in the language of Dostoyevski, or impressing your future collegues with the thorough knowledge of Russian current affairs in their mother tongue!
