Ekaterina E
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.

Is tutoring just for academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
Tutorful offers a wide range of subjects beyond traditional academics! While we excel at supporting GCSEs, A-Levels, and university degrees, your child can also explore new hobbies or personal development skills like learning to play the guitar, mastering Python coding, or even improving their photography. Just search for the skill your child wants to learn, and you'll find expert tutors ready to help.
