About me - English
Hi! My name is Daria, I was born and raised in Moscow. but now I live in the Moscow area, in an old and nice city Sergiev Posad - one of the famous cities in Russian "Golden Ring". I really like this city and his history, general Russian history, culture and language of course.
I'm glad to help you to speak and understand Russian for work, travel, everyday conversation, for Russian language exams and for gaining a deeper understanding of Russian culture.

Teaching Approach
Through teaching at school and university, I have developed tailored approaches to teaching Russian for various purposes, work, travel, everyday conversation, Russian language exams, writing in Russian.
I really like to speak with my students about anything in our lives. I teach them Russian, gaining new experience of their life, and showing them my own Russian life. So my students learn how to communicate in Russian.
I prefer to explain lexical differences and grammar through conversation rather than exercises.
