Natalia is an excellent tutor and I very much enjoy our lessons. The lessons are well paced and she ensures each new section of vocab or grammar is understood and well-practiced, thereby building a solid foundation for the next concept. There are many opportunities to practice reading, speaking, and listening comprehension in each lesson. Fortunately for me, she is a very patient teacher, so I would definitely recommend her as a tutor!

Natalia is an incredible teacher. She is the #1 reason I have been learning Russian for over 2 years now. Her lessons are very enjoyable, engaging and well-structured, so I always feel like have a good understanding by the time we reach the next topic. She is also a wonderful person, very kind and professional. I would highly recommend Natalia to anyone learning Russian, at any level.

Natalia has been teaching me to speak Russian for many years. She is an excellent tutor: knowledgeable, professional, patient and encouraging. Her enthusiasm and passion for learning are infectious. Plus, on a more practical level, she has always been punctual and flexible where possible.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her whether you're a beginner, intermediate or expert.

I've recently started learning English with Natalia and am really pleased with my progress. Natalia is an excellent teacher and has made every lesson enjoyable and interesting. I'm starting to be able to understand and read English and am now able to form a few sentences. I'm really encouraged by this as previously I did not consider myself to be very good at languages. I am looking forward to continuing and improving my English skills and this is largely due to Natalia's skill as teacher.

I've been having adult lessons with Natalia for 8 or 9 years. I really value her patience and encouragement, and her ability to pick up on when I'm struggling with something and to explain it to me and make sure I understand. Her lessons are also very interesting and give insights into Russian culture and history. I would definitely recommend Natalia as a Russian language tutor.

I have had weekly lessons from Natalia for several years and would not miss any. Natalia is an excellent teacher. Her lessons are always interesting. She is very knowledgeable, patient and supportive. I would highly recommend her.

I have had Russian lessons with Natalia for several years now and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Her lessons are always meticulously prepared and she tailors them to work on my weaknesses. She has an encyclopaedic knowledge of the Russian language and culture and I always come away from a lesson having learnt something that I did not know before. The most important thing is that her lessons are always fun as well as being educational. The time of the lesson flys by and I always look forward to the next one.
