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...

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is inspired by the University of Leeds. Can a tutor help them prepare a strong UCAS application for Russian or Slavonic Studies?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have experience helping students with university applications. They can help your child articulate their passion for Russian in their personal statement, discuss relevant cultural topics, and build the confidence needed for potential interviews, giving them a real edge.
Since Russian isn't offered at my child's school in Leeds, can a tutor help them work towards a formal qualification?
Yes, this is a very common reason parents come to us. Our tutors can provide the structured support your child needs to prepare for exams like GCSE or A-Level Russian as a private candidate, covering the entire curriculum and helping them with exam technique.
How do I choose the right Russian tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit. You can read detailed profiles, watch introductory videos, and check ratings from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals before booking a lesson to make sure you've found the perfect match.
How much do online Russian tutors cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience and qualifications, so you can find someone who fits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so you'll always know the cost upfront.
What happens in the first lesson?
The first session is a great opportunity for the tutor to get to know your child. They'll chat about what your child enjoys, what they find tricky, and what they want to achieve. It's a relaxed way to build a rapport and create a plan for future lessons.
What if we don't get on with the first tutor we choose?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match, which is why we have our 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 know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked, and we interview every single one. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
What if my child is a complete beginner in Russian?
That's no problem at all! Our tutors are experienced in teaching students of all levels, from absolute beginners learning the alphabet to advanced learners. They will start from the very beginning and go at a pace that's comfortable for your child.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It has all the tools your child needs for an engaging and effective lesson.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one attention from an encouraging tutor can make a huge difference. In a supportive space, your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed, celebrate small wins, and see their knowledge grow, which is a fantastic confidence booster.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer tutoring for a huge range of skills beyond the curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new craft, you can find an expert tutor to help them explore their interests.
How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Most families find that one lesson a week is a great starting point for making steady progress. However, the frequency is completely up to you and can be arranged with your tutor to fit your child's needs and your family's schedule.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
