Chris B
Friendly, patient Russian tutor
I am a friendly, patient tutor of languages and music. I teach French and Russian (which I’ve studied to master’s level at the University of Bath, and to undergraduate level at the University of Oxford) and Latin and Classical Greek (which I took to A level equivalent). I also teach guitar (acoustic and electric), electric bass, and drums, which I’ve played semi-professionally in rock, folk and jazz bands, as well as music theory, which I think can be helpful for any musical style.I have several years’ experience of tutoring languages and music at a variety of levels from beginner onwards.

Kader (tony) B
I have been tutoring Russian for the last 25 years.
I have in particular come to understand the value of sharing learning objectives and success criteria with children. Knowing exactly what is expected and how they can achieve allows children to focus more clearly on tasks.Progression needs to be planned for, so that as children work and explore at their own pace, there is always something else ready to move them on and take them further in their learning. I also believe that differentiation and meeting varied learning styles are key to effective teaching and learning. Work should be set at an appropriate, but challenging, level. When I prepare...

Veronika R
My daughter, Year 9, decided to take Russian GCSE and started having lessons with Veronika at the beginning of this academic year. She really enjoys her lessons and actually looks forward to them, which is always a lovely bonus! Veronika provides clear notes on what needs to be done and leads the lessons in a warm and caring way. Very happy!

Anastasia S
I have been having Russian lessons with Anastasia for about 7 months. I think that Anastasia is an excellent teacher and I would recommend her highly to anyone who is thinking of learning Russian. She started by making a careful assessment of where I was in relation to the Russian language and what my aims were. Anastasia always prepares the lessons well and takes the time to carefully mark homework. An enormous advantage of learning from Anastasia is that you learn from a native speaker so you hear the real Russian intonation and other language features. Anastasia makes use of a variety of language teaching tools and methods and I've never been bored in her lessons. Although Russian Anastasia's English is excellent. Good luck with your Russian!

asked questions
See all FAQs
How can a GCSE Russian tutor help my child improve?
Tutors provide personalised support tailored to your child’s needs. Beginners learn the Cyrillic alphabet, grammar, and speaking skills step by step, while heritage speakers refine formal writing, reading, and comprehension. Tutors also offer strategies for exam preparation and practical practice, helping most students improve by at least one grade in just a few sessions.
Can beginners succeed in GCSE Russian?
Absolutely. Tutors make complex grammar manageable, carefully introduce the Cyrillic script, and provide exercises to build confidence. With consistent support, beginners can achieve strong grades and develop impressive language skills.
How do tutors handle tricky topics like cases or Cyrillic script?
Tutors break topics into small, manageable steps. They use exercises for reading, writing, and listening, and incorporate speaking practice so students feel confident across all areas of the language.
Do universities value GCSE Russian?
Yes. A strong grade demonstrates dedication, cultural awareness, and academic ability. Tutors help heritage speakers show formal language skills, and beginners display perseverance and commitment.
When should we start tutoring?
Anytime your child needs extra support or wants to get ahead. Early Russian lessons focus on building foundations, while sessions closer to exams target revision and problem areas.
Are Tutorful tutors experienced with GCSE Russian?
Yes. All tutors know the curriculum, grading criteria, and common challenges. They are passionate about helping students succeed and confident in supporting both beginners and heritage speakers.
