Alina Velichko

I offer structured and personalised Russian lessons for adults and professionals who want to build real communication skills. Lessons are conducted online and tailored to your goals, whether you are learning for travel, work, or personal development.

Lesson format:
• 60-minute lessons (standard)
• 90-minute lessons (deep practice & intensive work)
• One-to-one format with full attention and customised materials

What we do in lessons:
• Speaking practice from the first lesson
• Clear explanations of grammar and sentence structure
• Pronunciation and listening training
• Real-life dialogues and situations
• Vocabulary building with context (not memorisation)

My approach:
I combine my background in linguistics and translation with practical teaching methods. I explain how the language actually works, so you can use it naturally and confidently.

Pricing:
• 60 min lesson: £15
• 90 min lesson: £21

Trial lesson:
I offer a free 30-minute introductory session to assess your level, discuss your goals, and see if we are a good fit.

Teaching approach:
With a background in linguistics and translation, I explain grammar, pronunciation, and cultural nuances in a clear and accessible way, especially for English speakers. I use interactive materials and adapt the pace to your level.

My goal is to make Russian clear, structured, and usable in real life — not confusing or overwhelming.
