Completely adjusted to student's needs. I used following techniques:

- Structured worksheets based grammar/reading style;
- Read & translate a book that student prefers;
- Eloquence development: "dress up" a text replacing plain and basic vocabulary with sophisticated expressions;
- Comprehension: sung and spoken listening. Reading books and discussing/answering questions
- Situations based: transport, concert, pub chat-up lines, travel etc.;
- Visit to an art gallery and conversation about what we see;
- Casual fluency (no grammar and error correction, to develop comfort);
- Poetry writing together...
- Business project discussion in Russian.

I will uncover your requirements, and start narrowly. I believe vocabulary, grammar exercises, and reading offer too much width at the start, and quick results motive students better. Therefore small happy achievements will be defined and reached:)
