About Katya

A patient guide to real-world Russian

Katya helps learners turn grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation into Russian they can use with confidence.

Привет! Меня зовут Катя.

Meet Ekaterina, or Katya for short

Born and raised in Moscow, Katya has spent more than eight years helping students understand the Russian language and the culture behind it. Her lessons are adapted to each learner instead of following one fixed path.

You might be learning for travel, family conversations, work, an exam, or simply because you love languages. Lessons connect those goals to practical speaking, careful pronunciation, useful grammar, and vocabulary you can retain.

Beginners receive a clear foundation in Cyrillic and sentence structure. More experienced learners work on natural expression, accuracy, listening, and the confidence to speak without translating every word first.
