Russian is one of the most popular languages in the world, with about 265 million people who speak Russian as either their first or second language. In addition to being an official language of the United Nations, it is the official language of Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan. There are many excellent reasons to learn Russian. Students at local schools such as Riverview Gardens Senior High School or Gateway High School may take Russian to fulfill their foreign language graduation requirement. Those in international business may find that knowing Russian allows for new opportunities. Many colleges or universities like Saint Louis University may offer undergraduate or graduate programs in Russian language and culture.
What can I learn about during St. Louis Russian lessons?
Russian presents a number of exciting challenges for English speakers. The Cyrillic alphabet is much closer to the Greek alphabet that the English alphabet which adds a hurdle for English speakers to navigate. Russian also uses the case system for nouns. All nouns have grammatical gender, and adjectives must match the noun that they modify. Russian also features a series of endings that indicate the role of a word in the sentence as well as its number. While English also features endings that make words plural, English does not inflect nouns to indicate the part of speech of the word. This makes Russian word order much more fluid than that of English. Because the word itself tells you its role in the sentence, a particular word can be placed in a number of places throughout the sentence.
Learning a language like Russian in a structured context can help you to progress through the language in a systematic way. This can help you to monitor your progress and feel more confident during the process. Working with an expert can help you to start with the foundational concepts of the language and then build off of the based those skills and concepts provide. Learning in a formal context is also a great opportunity to practice your conversational abilities. Conversing in a language is one of the most effective ways to deepen your understanding of the language because it requires you to utilize a number of skills and concepts at the same time. Conversations test your understanding of vocabulary, pronunciation, grammar, and more.

...Biomedical Engineering from Cornell University. With several years of tutoring experience under my belt, and a long journey of figuring out my own techniques for studying and retaining vital classroom knowledge, I have a tool belt ready of methods to succeed in the classroom. Additionally, I have worked with students on all sides of the learning/comprehension spectrum and will help your child gain the confidence and skills necessary for long term success!... I believe one thing wrong with today's educational systems is that students focus too much on the short terms goals - memorizing information just for the next test, rushing through homework just to get a good grade for that assignment, cramming just to pass a 3 hour AP or regents, etc. I hope to teach students to gain knowledge and confidence in a subject, not just short-term memorization, and walk away with lifelong test-taking, learning, and study tools.

I graduated from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in NYC in 2008, the oldest English speaking acting conservatory in the world. I graduated Summa from University of St Thomas with a BA in English, and just wrapped up a MS in Data Science from Northwestern. I'm a huge Red Sox fan and love watching detective shows when I have free time.... Positivity. Always. I believe that if a student is given positive tools and is allowed to understand the material rather than be lectured at, they're more likely to do well in the future.

I love working with classrooms full of students, but I also love working with people one-on-one. I find that when the tutor has a chance to zero in on and accommodate a students' individual needs and learning style, the experience becomes more productive and enjoyable for everyone involved.
