Ekaterina is friendly and encouraging and her lessons always feel lively and personal. She brings in real-life examples and cultural context that make learning the language much more interesting! I really enjoy how she mixes conversation practice with grammar and uses different resources like online quizzes, short texts, and discussions. I always come away feeling like I’ve learned something useful! :)

Elina K
Elina's lessons have been very helpful to me for multiple reasons. She's helped me a lot with improving my vocabulary, speaking confidence, and grammar. We've focused equally on all of these things and this has me progressing evenly in all areas.
Elina is very friendly and easy-going. This creates a positive environment where it's easy to learn. She's also a native Russian speaker, and so her understanding of Russian is obviously very advanced. Her English is great too, which makes things easier for a native English speaker like me, as she can translate Russian into English easily.

Brilliant Russian tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
My child hopes to study at the University of Glasgow. Can a tutor help with their UCAS application?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have experience helping students prepare for university. They can help your child articulate how their Russian skills make them a strong candidate, assist with personal statements, and build the subject knowledge needed to meet entry requirements.
Since Russian isn't offered in my child's Glasgow school, can a tutor help them work towards a formal qualification?
Yes, this is a common goal for many parents. Our tutors can create a structured learning plan designed to prepare your child for qualifications like GCSEs, A-Levels, or Scottish Highers, even if they're studying independently. They provide the curriculum knowledge and exam technique practice that schools would normally offer.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. That's why we have a first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do I pick the right Russian tutor for my child?
Start by reading their profiles to learn about their experience and teaching style. You can also see reviews from other parents, which really helps. We recommend messaging a few tutors to chat about your child's goals before booking a session to make sure you've found the perfect fit.
How do you ensure tutors are safe to work with?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has to pass a rigorous application process. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is learning from the best.
How much does online Russian tutoring cost in Glasgow?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but you can set your own budget using our search filters. All prices are clearly shown on tutors' profiles, so there are no hidden costs.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence in speaking Russian?
One-to-one lessons provide a safe, encouraging space for your child to practise speaking without the fear of making mistakes in front of a class. Tutors can tailor conversation practice to your child's interests, making it fun and helping them feel much more confident.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs, including video chat, a shared whiteboard for working through problems together, and a tool for sharing documents. It's a simple and effective way to learn from home.
Do you only offer tutors for academic subjects like Russian?
Not at all! While we have experts for core subjects from the 11+ to degree level, you can also find tutors for a huge range of skills and hobbies. Whether your child wants to learn guitar, master coding, or get help with a personal project, we have tutors who can help them explore their interests.
My child is a complete beginner. Is that okay?
Of course. Our tutors love working with students at all levels, from complete beginners to those preparing for advanced exams. They will start from the very beginning and build a strong foundation at a pace that feels comfortable for your child.
How often should my child have a lesson?
It's completely flexible and up to you. Most families choose to have one session per week to build momentum, but you can arrange lessons as often as you need. You can discuss what works best with your tutor.
