About Me
🌟 Ready to Sound Mysterious, Smart, and Slightly Dangerous?
Then it’s time to learn Russian with me!
My name is Annika and I am a Russian and Estonian as a foreign language teacher from Estonia. I am bilingual, I'm native in two languages - Russian and Estonian. I chose to teach Russian because it's more challenging and full of development opportunities. I am qualified language teacher, I gained my Bachelor degree in Slavic philology in the University of Tartu and Master's in Education Innovation system, where I specialized on innovating language teaching methods and developing new more efficient materials to help students gain a speaking skills. Currently, I work at the museum as museum educator, but I have a lot of experience in adult education - within 5 years I teached in a school Russian as foreign language, conducted a course of the Russian language at the University of Tartu and one in the Tartu Vocational Education Center.
Whether you dream of:
🪆 Watching Russian shows without subtitles
💬 Impress your friends by ordering vodka like a native
🎶 Sing along to Russian pop or classic ballads
📖 Or finally understand what Dostoevsky was really talking about...
I’m your go-to guide for all things Russian—with lessons that are practical, fun, and actually make sense.
✔️ Accent reduction – so you sound smooth, not stiff
✔️ Local slang & real-life phrases – not just textbook talk
✔️ Grammar & linguistics – because without that, you’re just guessing
We dive into the how and why behind the language, so you don’t just memorize—you understand. And when you understand, you speak with confidence.
💬 Fun, effective, and totally judgment-free.
Say “да” to mastering Russian—with me!
Your brain will work, your accent will improve, and your inner language nerd will be very happy.
