About Larissa
I’m a certified language teacher double-dipping in English for Russian speakers and Russian for internationals, with 15+ years of professional experience. My university diploma is recognized by Belgian NARIC.
I also speak Spanish and Dutch, so I deeply respect the brain-melting struggle of learning a tough language. So, I try and bring a combination of serious expertise AND a relaxed, encouraging, and lighthearted vibe to every single lesson.

My lessons combine the highly effective lexical approach—focusing on real, natural word combinations rather than isolated grammar rules—with a supportive, friendly atmosphere where you can make mistakes without fear.
While apps can help with basic memorization, a live tutor provides dynamic, real-time feedback, adapts to your unique personality and goals, picks up on subtle nuances that make Russian pronunciation famously tricky, helping you sound natural and confident, and keeps you authentically engaged in real-world conversations.

I started my lessons with Larissa in February 2026 to prepare for my IELTS exam. Larissa gave me detailed feedback every lesson! She has great positive energy! She is the best tutor in the world! Due to her enthusiastic approach, I got a higher score in the exam! I would definitely recommend Larissa as a great teacher!
Working with Larissa was a game-changer for my progress in the language. I really appreciate the perfect balance between structured learning and immersive conversation. Thanks to her patience, humour and engaging style, I went from struggling with basic phrases to speaking comfortably.

I’ve been teaching long enough to notice a funny pattern with lesson pricing:
Average Price:
"Any questions today?" → Silence.
"Any comments, wishes, requests?" → "Nope."
"Did you do the homework?" → "Ah, forgot..."
Higher-than-average Price:
"Any questions today?" → A bulleted list of 14 burning grammar dilemmas, three cultural nuance questions, and a request for more homework!
When you invest more in your learning, you automatically show up with more focus, curiosity, and drive—and I match that energy 100%. High-level fluency isn't built on passive app scrolling; it’s built on active, high-engagement lessons.
