Whether you are taking your first Russian class at South Mecklenburg High School, moving up to the next level in an advanced class at Myers Park High School, or even taking your knowledge to the college level with intermediate classes at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, a Varsity Tutors Charlotte Russian course was developed to help you uncover your best study skills to increase your chances of achieving mastery.
Classroom instructors have the best of intentions when trying to get you the knowledge you need to become fluent in a language other than your own. With limitations like a specific number of instructional hours, curricula that they are required to cover, and full classrooms, they can only do so much. When a student is struggling - or needs specialized instruction - both teachers and students often feel overwhelmed.
In addition, successful language learners know that fluency is rarely a result of classroom instruction alone. To become a skilled language user, you need to take time outside of the classroom to read, practice, and study to truly learn and retain information. It isn't easy, especially when you feel like you are on your own.
You don't have to be overwhelmed, and you don't have to be alone. Charlotte Russian classes are developed to supplement your in-class learning by providing the support of a highly-skilled instructor. This gives you the opportunity to work together with someone who can help you make your way through challenging areas, enhance your study skills, and break down your language learning goals into achievable steps.
How can a Charlotte Russian Class help me?
If you've chosen to study Russian, you've decided to travel down a fascinating path. Russia is the birthplace of some of the most important writers of modern Western literature. Through their epic stories and wide-sweeping dramas, Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, and Chekhov shared glimpses of their country's rich cultural heritage with the world.
More than 150 million people claim Russian as their native language and - including second-language learners - a total of 265 million speak it worldwide. It is one of the official languages of the United Nations and serves as the official language to Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan.
For English-speaking learners, Russian can at first seem very complex. The unfamiliar Cyrillic alphabet has six more letters than English; however, once it is learned, pronunciation is straightforward and can be sounded out directly from the letters.
Similar to many other languages, Russian nouns are gendered masculine, feminine, and neuter. Nouns are governed by the case system, which determines the role of the noun in the sentence. English uses word order to show relationships between words in a sentence, whereas Russian nouns use case endings to clarify the subject, object, and number.
In light of these unique differences, you can gain a significant advantage by having access to a knowledgeable expert who can explain complicated concepts, answer your questions, provide opportunities to practice speaking and listening, and help you tap into your study strengths.
How can a Charlotte Russian course help me?
Russian instructors are highly qualified and approachable and are good communicators who are skilled in helping learners uncover and leverage their study strengths. Whether you learn best visually, verbally, by participating, or even if you don't yet know what your learning style is, this course can help you get where you want to go.
Course sessions can delve into mechanics like spelling, grammar, punctuation, and pronunciation. Instructors can also discuss broad cultural concepts, or drill down into linguistic nuances, depending on what helps you best retain what you learn.
A Charlotte Russian course is presented online in a learning environment where you can see, hear, and interact as if you were in the same room with your instructor. Online course delivery saves you the expense and trouble of traveling.
In your Charlotte Russian class, you can study with a group of fellow Russian learners who may be facing some of the same issues that you are. With groups, you can participate in multiple-person discussions, practice conversational skills with each other, and enrich your learning journey through the experiences of your peers.

...a private tutor in my high school years, revealed the deep insecurities we all carry as students. To a 6th grader, the thought of algebra was so frightening and intimidating that any reasoning disintegrated. So, we followed the mantra Algebra is not magic, reminding the student in times when she faltered that she can think through a math problem. As long as she felt grounded enough to access her innate understanding of the world around...

I want to show my students the joy of learning, as cliche as that might sound. I guess this stems from my own love of learning, but tutoring lets me share this love in a one-on-one, individual scenario. Seeing as my desired career is to be a college professor, tutoring allows me to get an early edge on my teaching skills as well.

John: Charlotte Russian course instructor
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 work as a Microbiologist, and I love to share my knowledge with others. Sometimes I do it by singing, conversations with friends, or by tutoring. No matter the mechanism, teaching and learning are my life!... Keep going. Everything that has happened in my life, good and bad, has happened because I did not quit. Learning is a journey. Keep going.... After introductions, I would begin by getting to know the student's learning style and what their educational interests are. For example, what they hope to gain from the subject, their strengths and weaknesses, and what they've tried in the past. Gauging where they are now will provide a great foundation to build from.
