Привет! My name is Vika, and I’d love to be your guide to learning Russian! I’ve always been passionate about the Russian language and literature—I even participated in competitions and wrote for the school newspaper. Outside of teaching, I enjoy reading, yoga, and hiking.
Traveling is also a big part of my life; I've visited 20+ countries. Recently, my husband, daughter, and I moved from Russia to the UK. I have Ukrainian roots, but my parents moved to Siberia in the 1980s for work, and that's where I was born and raised.
In the past three years, I’ve taken several courses in teaching Russian as a foreign language, and it’s been incredibly rewarding to see my students grow. My approach focuses on creating a relaxed atmosphere where you can speak freely without fear of making mistakes. I love asking questions and encouraging you to share your own stories, making our conversations feel natural and enjoyable.
Join me for a trial lesson, and let’s make learning Russian a meaningful and engaging experience! Together, we’ll not only improve your language skills but also boost your confidence to be yourself in Russian. Book your lesson today, and let's unlock the world of the Russian language together!

Today was excellent! Victoria is so patient! And although the topic we had chosen for today was difficult for me, she found a way to push me gently, and I was tired but happy to have done it at the end. She pays attention to details without overwhelming you with corrections, and always has a word of encouragement. Thank you!
