While some learned better through mnemonics and letter-to-word associations, others preferred to process information and teach content back to me themselves. The greatest lesson I've learned as a tutor is to first step back and let a student tell me their goals, show me how they take in information, and point me in the direction of the challenging areas. With this information, I can help students...

Russian Tutoring FAQ
Russian is the official language Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Belarus, and Russia. It is also spoken in many other countries in Eastern Europe. It is considered a Slavic language, and it is the most spoken language in Europe, with approximately 140 million speakers. Russian is also one of the official languages of the UN and is the eighth most spoken language in the world. As such, learning Russian could prove to be a useful skill. If you have been searching for "Russian tutoring near me," look no further than Varsity Tutors, because we can help you connect with a skilled Russian tutor.
Here are the major concepts a Russian tutor can cover:
Reading
Speaking
Writing
Culture
The Russian language is much different than English. Russian uses a Cyrillic alphabet, which consists of 33 letters. Russian has controversial points and inconsistencies when it comes to the writing system. This system can make it difficult to learn how to write in the language. Russian tutoring can be helpful in this regard because a tutor can work with students to identify the areas where they might be having trouble. As Russian is a common language, it is possible to find courses in Russian at many colleges. However, the challenging nature of the language may lead to students needing extra help outside of the classroom.
Learning how to speak Russian can also prove to be challenging. It is common for students to be nervous about speaking a new language in front of a teacher and other classmates out of fear that they will mispronounce a word or phrase. Russian tutoring can assist with this because a student may feel more comfortable working with someone on an individualized level. Working with a Russian tutor also offers students the opportunity to receive immediate feedback. A tutor can either praise them for correct pronunciation or explain what areas they need to work on.
When learning a new language, it is important to learn about the culture as well. Culture often influences a language and vice versa. As such, it is very difficult to really connect with a language without connecting with the culture as well. The Russian language is no different and learning about the way the language developed and spread in connect with the Soviet Union can provide further insight into working towards fluency.
If you are interested in learning Russian, contact Varsity Tutors so that we can help you connect with a Russian tutor who is ready to help you build your command of the language.
