Varsity Tutors can help by getting you set up with comprehensive New York City Russian lessons. If you are facing the challenge of learning a new language, whether for a school requirement at Francis Lewis High School, New York University, another area school, or for business or personal reasons, we can help you. Learning a second language can be daunting to take on by yourself, and you may not get the practice you need in the classroom. If you feel you could use some additional help with picking up new language skills, New York City Russian lessons are an effective option. No matter if you are just starting out with the basics of Russian in an area school or you are into more advanced courses, we can find the right lesson option to fit your needs and proficiency level.
Russian has an estimated 265 million speakers around the world and is an official language in several countries. It is also an official language of the United Nations. It is easy to see how fluency in this language could open doors for you, both in the business world and while traveling. This intricate, Slavic language has many concepts to learn and memorize, so consistent practice with an experienced Russian speaker could be very beneficial in building comprehension and retention.
What are the different benefits of each type of New York City Russian lessons?
When learning a second language, adequate opportunities to practice are key to fluency and confidence. Speaking, hearing, writing, and reading Russian on a regular basis is very important to your retention of vital language skills, such as pronunciation and the Cyrillic alphabet. There are grammar rules and vocabulary that will need to be memorized. Studying with a New York City Russian tutor or in one of our online classes can help by providing you those extra opportunities to work on these new language concepts.
With two convenient options, classes or private instruction, you are sure to find a lesson plan to fit your needs and busy schedule. Each option has its own unique benefits, and you may even find that a combination of both is what you need to reach for your language goals. Regardless of which option you choose, you will learn from a highly qualified and patient instructor that is excited to share the language with you. Depending on your proficiency level, your instructor may even choose immersion teaching and lead portions of your class or private session entirely in Russian.
If you enjoy collaborating with other students and working in a familiar classroom setting, an online Russian course may be a good fit for you. You will attend each course by signing into a virtual classroom that is live and interactive. This type of learning environment offers you the ability to engage in conversational practice, work on group activities, and ask your instructor questions. If you find yourself needing some additional clarification on any language concepts, you can reserve one-on-one time with your instructor. New course sessions start monthly, and you can choose between a two- or four-week session. With the courses being held at a variety of times and the convenience of no added commute to your busy day, you are likely to find something that can fit into your schedule.
Students who prefer a more customized approach to their learning might prefer working with a New York City Russian tutor. When you study one-on-one with a private instructor, you have the ability to focus on the exact language concepts that are giving you trouble. These individualized sessions give your instructor the opportunity to learn your strengths and challenges and build a learning plan with those in mind. You can opt to meet your New York City Russian tutor online or in-person and can be connected to someone in as little as 24 hours. If you choose the convenient online option, you can log into the Live Learning Platform from wherever you are to engage in video chat and work on a virtual whiteboard with your instructor. If you would rather meet in person, you can arrange for sessions at your home, a local library, or even a nearby cafe.
How can I get started with New York City Russian lessons?
No matter which lesson type you would like to get started with, or if you would like more information before making your decision, Varsity Tutors would be happy to help. We can get you started quickly and ensure that you do not have to face the difficulties of learning Russian on your own. Reach out to our educational consultants today for more information.

Katie: New York Russian lesson instructor
...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.

Henny: New York Russian lesson instructor
I've always known I wanted to teach. Once I received my undergraduate degree in Psychology/Neuroscience, I decided to pursue a Masters degree in Education. 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.

A typical lesson of mine is interdisciplinary; for example, I enjoy incorporating music and art into my lessons. My approach is driven by the most recent pedagogical methods in education including a social emotional learning component, organization component, and a new invigorating way to approach otherwise less-exciting content.
