Whether you're a student at the Arizona State University Downtown Phoenix Campus who needs to take a second language or you simply want to brush up on your Russian, Varsity Tutors can find the Phoenix Russian lessons that will best suit your needs. We can enroll you in an online Russian course or set you up with a Phoenix Russian tutor if you would prefer private lessons.
What Are the Perks of the Two Types of Phoenix Russian Lessons?
Varsity Tutors can set you up with two different types of Russian lessons. The first is an online Russian course that will allow you to interact with qualified Russian instructors and fellow students in a virtual classroom, and the other is studying Russian with a private instructor. Each of these options has its benefits, and many students choose both to give themselves an advantage in their studies. No matter what you decide to do, you will be working with an experienced Russian instructor who enjoys sharing their expert knowledge with others.
One of the biggest challenges of learning a second language is finding the opportunity to practice speaking it. There are more than 150 million native Russian speakers around the world, and it is estimated that there are more than 265 million Russian speakers worldwide when second-language speakers are included. However, students in the United States may not have many opportunities to practice the language if they don't live in an urban area with a large Russian population. High schools such as Desert Vista High School and North High School may offer courses in Russian, but many students find that they need to seek out other opportunities to practice speaking the language outside of the classroom. An online Russian course or private instruction can provide students with language immersion and help them become more comfortable speaking the language.
If you are the kind of student who enjoys collaborating with others, an online Russian course might be best for you. These courses will place you in a virtual classroom where you will interact with qualified instructors and fellow students in learning activities and engage them in conversation. You will go over the basics of the Russian language such as the Cyrillic alphabet, essential Russian vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation, and the history of the Russian language. Depending on your skill level, your instructor might even teach an entire session in Russian. Naturally, the instructors are available for one-on-one help should you ever need it.
If you would prefer more personalized lessons, Varsity Tutors can also set you up with a Phoenix Russian tutor for private instruction. This will give you even more opportunities to work on your pronunciation with a supportive mentor, and it will allow for more personalized lessons that will focus on your strengths and be tailored to your learning style and academic goals.
How Can I Sign Up for Phoenix Russian Lessons?
Regardless of whether you decide to enroll in an online Russian course, find a private instructor, or do both, you should have no trouble finding a solution that fits your schedule. Online courses are available in two-week or four-week sections, and new sections open up every month. Since all of the courses are online, you won't have to worry about commuting to a physical school to participate. As long as you have a stable Internet connection, you can engage in the course from anywhere.
If you decide to seek out private instruction, you will be happy to know that you will have even more flexibility. Many students choose to use our Live Learning Platform for their lessons, which gives them the ability to interact with their instructors via video chat and make use of a virtual whiteboard during their lessons. If you decide that you would rather meet with your instructor in person, you can do that as well. Instructors often come to their students' homes for lessons, but they can just as easily meet you at a library or a coffee shop. They can also work with you to find lesson times that work within your regular school or work schedule.
Learning a new language will always be a challenge, but Varsity Tutors can set you up with the Phoenix Russian lessons that can help you better understand the material. If you want to learn more about enrolling in an online Russian course or finding a qualified private instructor, contact us today. We will be happy to answer your questions and help you find the Russian lessons that best suit your needs.

Krishandra: Phoenix Russian lesson instructor
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.

John: Phoenix Russian lesson 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.
