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...

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. I reall...

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.

Great lessons for Russian beginners ! Ciaran understands exactly how I a French and English speaking person could interpret certain words and specificities of the Russian language. That helps me understand better and makes the lesson enjoyable !!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child with their UCAS application for the University of York or Durham?
Absolutely. Many of our Russian tutors have extensive experience helping students prepare for university applications. They can help your child articulate their passion in their personal statement, prepare for interviews, and demonstrate the academic rigour that top universities like York and Durham look for.
My child's school in York doesn't offer Russian. Can a tutor help them work towards a formal qualification?
Yes, this is a very common reason parents come to us. Our tutors can create a structured learning plan to help your child work towards recognised qualifications, such as a GCSE or A-Level in Russian, which can then be included in their university applications.
How do I choose the right Russian tutor for my child?
It’s simple to find a great match. You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals before booking your first session.
How much do online Russian tutors cost?
The cost varies depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or complicated contracts.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed a background check. We are also very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect fit. That's 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 online lessons work?
Our online lessons take place in a purpose-built virtual classroom with video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring provides a safe and supportive space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement. This personalised attention helps them grasp difficult topics, celebrate small wins, and build the self-belief they need to succeed.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something different like guitar or coding?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or pick up a new hobby, we have expert tutors who can help them explore their interests.
What levels of Russian do you cover?
Our tutors can help with all levels of Russian, from complete beginners and support for GCSE or A-Level students, right through to degree-level study and advanced conversation for adults. Whatever your child's starting point, we have a tutor who can help.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that a one-hour lesson per week is a great starting point. However, the frequency is completely up to you and can be discussed with your tutor. You can easily schedule more sessions around exams or during school holidays.
How do online lessons work?
Every child learns at their own pace, but the benefit of one-to-one tutoring is that it's tailored specifically to their needs. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and understanding within just a few sessions.
