    Experienced Russian teacher for children and adults. One-to-one tuition with guaranteed results Good Morning; Hello! :) I am a teacher with many years of experience teaching Russian to children and adults. I will be able to interest you and teach you to love the Russian language! I have worked with Russian-speaking children and adults for many years, as well as with students whose mother tongue is not Russian.

    Why choose Khamida A.
    "Khamida is the third Russian teacher I've worked with and she is by far the best! She has a very structured/objective based, yet highly adaptable approach to teaching, which has been extremely effective. We work together through a great course, which I have found very useful with respect to building a good vocabulary and understanding of Russian grammar. She is super patient and has manner of delivery which I have found to be very re-assuring but also challenging when required. I'm not the most confident language learner, she takes this into account and pushes just enough without being overbearing. I'd say she is capable of teaching Russian to any level/objective. Whether your aim is basic travel communication or fluency. Highly recommended!"
