What Our Students Say

I studied conversational Russian with Roman. I had learned Russian in school, but I had forgotten most of it over time. After three weeks of classes with Roman, I not only refreshed my school knowledge but also learned a lot of new things. I was able to overcome my pronunciation problems as well. I am very happy with the results!

Herman Kahl

Berlin, Germany

I have been studying Russian since childhood. My father used to work in Russia and he instilled in me a love of the Russian language. However, I spoke poorly, made many mistakes, had poor pronunciation, and a strong accent. I studied conversational Russian with Roman for four months. As a result, I became quite fluent in Russian, significantly expanded my vocabulary, and mastered Russian grammar. Even complex verbs of motion, which I did not understand at all before, turned out to be quite simple after Roman explained them to me. I am very happy with the results and I plan to continue studying in order to study at a Russian university.

Devdas Mallick

Delhi, India

I took a conversational Russian course with Roman and I was amazed by the results! I was finally able to speak Russian and overcome my fear of communication. I started speaking confidently after just a month and a half of intensive classes with Roman (2 hours, 5 days a week).

Maria Alvarez

Mexico City, Mexico

I studied Russian at university, but I realized that I wouldn't pass the exam because I hadn't been studying hard enough. I took a conversational Russian course with Roman and I managed to pass the exam with the highest score in the group! The teachers at the university were very impressed with my pronunciation. I started the course with a basic A2 level.

Masud Rao

Delhi, India

As an entrepreneur developing game applications, I recognized the growing demand for Russian localization in the gaming industry. This, coupled with my existing business contacts in Russia, prompted me to embark on a journey of learning the Russian language. I enrolled in an 8-month Russian for Business course with Roman, eager to gain the linguistic skills necessary for effective communication and business success. The course provided me with a solid foundation in business terminology, negotiation techniques, and cultural nuances, enabling me to confidently interact with my Russian-speaking partners.
