I have attempted to learn Russian many times. However, i have given up as Russian language and pronunciation seemed so complicated. At last i have found a teacher that explains slowly, clearly and precisely. Thank you Natalia.

Love this lesson, but I will have to listen many times to really get the words and pronunciation down.

Listening many times is very helpful. In our everyday life we are very lazy listeners. When speaking foreign language we have to make an effort to hear the sounds as they really are and not as we think they are.

I watched several of your videos on Youtube and came here for more. They are very professional and I really like how you explain where some things originated from. I also like that you pronounce things slowly. Thank you!
