About Me
italki teacher since Nov 24, 2014
Vacation mode on Jan, 29 - Feb, 10 :)
Hello, dear iTalkiers! My name is Ksana, I am a professional Russian language tutor from Siberia and I've been teaching my native language since 2012.
From my experience I can say that the most popular request among learners is to start speaking as soon as possible. And that's what we are going to do in the lessons - we are going to speak, the one activity a person cannot do alone.
All the learners have a different background, different interests and of course different goals in learning. That is why we are going to talk about the topics that are really interesting for you. We will work with the authentic materials from the very first lessons even if you are a beginner, I will provide intermediate and advanced learners with the phrases and constructions that are really in use today.
Also I am ready to work with the learners who need more profound knowledge of the Russian language for their current studies, for studying in Russia or passing the Test of Russian as a foreign language.
So, feel free to contact me. I am sure together we will achieve great results. I am always happy to see my students’ progress as the result of our collaboration!

Oksana is a fantastic teacher and friend. She really knows her stuff and since I started learning with her last year, I feel I've made lots of progress. I could barely say my name last year but now we can talk about all sorts of subjects. Thanks, Oksana!

Thanks for another great conversation in Russian! We discussed so many different and complicated topics, (near death experiences, life in Soviet times, American politics and school system, Russo-phobia and Russo-philia ) and even though I couldn't say everything I wanted to say in Russian, I'm very happy that I can have such conversations mostly in Russian. We've made a lot of progress together and much more is to come :-)

It was my first lesson "General Russian" with Ksana. It was a well structured lesson, so productive, when we practiced pronunciation and I had my first dialogue with a Russian native speaker. She sent me homework to do before the lesson, so, the student should be prepared previously to take the most advantage of teacher's skills. I'm looking forward for our next lesson! Thank you so much, Ksana!

When I talk to Ksana I feel so lucky that I have found a teacher who can give me so much clearly understandable information. Ksana knows how to communicate well. She is the type of person that you could talk to all day. If you want someone who is interesting to talk to, who understands how to explain the nuances of Russian and who obviously loves languages in general, then my advice is to choose Ksana!

I'm learning Russian from scratch, and I practiced my first dialogues in Russian, every learner knows it's not easy when we are absolute beginners, but Ksana encourage me to do that. Besides conversational part, we worked on pronunciation, grammar, reading on an intensive lesson!
