If you want to stop guessing and start truly understanding how Russian works, you are in the right place. My approach is based on clarity and results. I provide the structure you need to speak correctly from day one - whether you are learning the language for travel, family, or preparing for TRKI exams.

- Grammar made simple: I explain complex rules in a simple way, and Russian cases and verbs will become clear so you can naturally use them in conversation.
- 17 years of experience: I have helped hundreds of students achieve their goals, adapting professional methods to their individual learning style.
- Full support: you will get access to a personal student account with MP4 files and original digital materials for practice between lessons.

In 2003, I graduated from Tver State University with a Master’s degree in Teaching Russian. Since 2009, I have been working as a tutor, helping English-speaking learners study Russian.
I teach teenagers (15+) and adults.
As a certified teacher, I have the linguistic background necessary to explain the specific features of Russian, including the case system, verbs of motion, the distinction between animate and inanimate nouns, verb tense variations, and more. I support understanding by drawing relevant comparisons with English.
My background in linguistics has allowed me to structure lessons in a way that helps students not just memorize rules, but truly develop an intuitive sense of how Russian works. Thanks to a systematic approach, they start speaking faster, lose their fear of mistakes, and understand the logic behind cases and verb aspects instead of learning forms in isolation.
Many students note that they gain confidence in speaking even at the early stages, because we develop reading, writing, and speaking in parallel rather than postponing conversation practice “for later.” As a result, they begin using the language in real life - communicating with friends and colleagues, traveling, and reading books without constantly relying on translation.
For me, it is important that a learner sees progress and understands how Russian is structured. That is why the learning process becomes conscious: students start noticing patterns, correcting their own mistakes, and feeling that Russian is not a chaotic set of rules, but a coherent system they can truly become comfortable with.

Frequently Asked Questions
If a tutor cancels a lesson that has been confirmed before, you get the total amount paid for this lesson back to your online wallet balance. You can use this balance to book the next lessons on lonet.
To provide a short answer to this question, we would say as follows: Go to a tutor if: you want to study the language. You will learn grammar rules, and practice reading, writing, and listening skills. If you are a beginner or an elementary-level learner, choose a tutor. With a tutor, you will work on and improve your language skills. Go to a trainer if: you want to develop your speaking skills mainly. Choose a native trainer to train your accent, speaking skills, and conversational vocabulary, get cultural insights, and have nice targeted conversations in the language with a native speaker-trainer. Go to a language coach if: you are at the intermediate and upper-intermediate level of the language and want to develop your specific language skills. If you want to become a confident language speaker, fluent in a specific area, in a language for specific purposes, and break all the barriers you have in your language learning, choose a language coach.
Book a free consultation session with Kristine and tell her about your concerns. She is a creator of Lonet.Academy, a language learning expert, a polyglot, and a performance coach. She is happy to provide valuable advice and insights, according to your unique needs and personal situation.
In the case if you booked the lessons and the tutor has already confirmed them, you can cancel your lessons (by going to your pending lessons and pressing the button “cancel”), but in this case, you will get your money back to your balance (online wallet) with a deduction of 5 eur per each lesson canceled. You can still use the remaining balance to book your lessons with another tutor. To avoid this we recommend buying special deals with us, that provide you with a specific amount of money in your online wallet (with a more than paid value) and you can use this balance later when you are confident to book.
