Testimonials
Patrick K. from Sherman Oaks, CA I cannot say enough about Yana. I adopted my 15 year old son from Russia 3 months ago. He did not speak a word of English. I found Yana on the Wyzant website and set up a first meeting. My son and she connected immediately and they now meet twice a week. She always comes prepared with a lesson plan and makes their time together fun. He?s learning more and more with each lesson. She?s very knowledgeable and is very dependable. We are thankful for Yana. And she?s a good person. You just can?t go wrong with her.
Bill H. from Los Angeles, CA Wow! Exactly what I wanted and hoped for, made each letter of the different Russian Alphabet alive and relevant, but mostly "patient with a friendly smile". She definitely has an aptitude for language. My brain was getting "numb", but she just smiled and politely corrected me. Made it a "fun" experience. Now, Please excuse me, must go study. Thx.
Michael D. from Los Angeles, CA I found Yana to be be an excellent tutor. She has an impressive command of English and Russian, explains the concepts of Russian very well, and is pleasant and personable to deal with. She also moved at whatever pace I required, and was creative in finding ways for me to become comfortable in the language.
Massimo B. from Los Angeles, CA We had a 10 days English Class arranged for our 2 kids with Yana (kids are 4 and 6 years old). They were very happy about Yana's course, she was very kind and patient. Classes includes games, paintings and interactive cartoons. So Yana was able to arrange very quickly a very good and entertaining class.
