SPEAK RUSSIAN  #  READ RUSSIAN  #  WRITE RUSSIAN  #  FEEL RUSSIAN

Teaching and tutoring Russian is not just my job. It's my life long passion. Private Russian lessons or lectures at schools and colleges - I put all my heart and longtime expertise into it. Seeing my students speaking, reading, writing and communicating in Russian makes my life full and bright. I love working with little kids and adult students and I know they love working with me, too. 

Helping kids and adults of Sarasota and nearby cities to open a vast amazing world of Russian Language and Russian Culture makes me very happy and proud of their successes.

I love sharing my knowledge of Russian History, Culture and traditions with advanced learners and those fascinated with rich history of Russia, world of Dostoyevsky, Tolstoy, Bulgakov, Pasternak, Chechov; wishing to learn how magical music of Tchaikovsky, Mussorgsky, Glinka, Shostakovich was created...

Hi! Привет!

My name is Dr. Janina Orloff, but my friends call me Nina. I wish we become friends, too.

All my professional life I was tutoring and teaching Russian in colleges, universities and schools in Europe and USA (USF, Sarasota).

My professional credentials are:
- Master of Education in Russian Philology.
- Doctor of Education in Russian Philology.

Natively speaking Russian, I am specialized in teaching Russian as a second language which requires a different approach and teaching techniques.

Whether you are looking to learn Russian from the beginning or improve it, need help with communicating with your Russian speaking friends or wish to learn more about Russia, please give me a call at (941) 840-1510 for a free evaluation session or to schedule lessons or a lecture.
