๐ Hi, I am Zhenya! Your journey with the Ukrainian language starts here ๐
๐บ๐ฆ I grew up in Cherkasy, the central part of Ukraine, the land of Schevchenko and Khmelnitskyi which gave me a great sense of our culture and a perfect command of the language.
Also regarding Ukrainian, I am a speaker of a universal dialect that will be understood anywhere in Ukraine.
I like art and music, and I am absolutely a cat lover.
I have 5 years of experience in developing training programs, both in group and in individual Ukrainian language lessons. I can be lazy (or laid back) and can relate to the struggles of learning a new language, so I can share with you some educational tricks ๐
I know, sometimes it is hard to start something new, especially if we are talking about new skills.
There is a saying in Slavic culture: “Trying is not torture”
So let’s try together to improve or acquire your skills!
๐ Hello, my name is Roman. I’m a native speaker of the Ukrainian language.
๐ If you’re looking for an easy-going person to practice your Ukrainian and you don’t like strict teachers with a complex learning process. Then I can assist you ๐
โ Usually, I’m helping people master their conversations, understand spoken and written language, and understand the context of different words or phrases.
I live in Cherkasy, Ukraine. Working as a manager in an IT company. Father of two young boys ะะตะฒ and ะะธะปะธะฟ.
๐ค Let’s get your goals done in Ukrainian.
๐ Just book your first Ukrainian language lesson at a suitable time.
Ich genieรe wirklich jede einzelne Unterrichtseinheit. Mir gefรคllt die offene Gestaltung von kleinen Gesprรคchen รผber unseren Alltag bis hin zu den strukturierten Lerneinheiten.

Roman gestaltet den Unterricht sehr interessant und abwechslungsreich. Er stellt sich flexibel auf jede Niveaustufe ein und erkennt, in welchen Bereichen Verbesserungsbedarf existiert. Die Hausaufgaben sind nicht nur hilfreich, sondern auch ziemlich spaรig. Ich kann den Unterricht mit Roman nur empfehlen!

Wow – Glad I found Zhenya – she is spectacular! I am on a serious mission to learn Ukrainian and Zhenya is a new tutor for me – dovetailing perfectly with other ongoing Preply language work. I learn an immense amount every lesson. Zhenya tailors each session perfectly for me, matching my interests and abilities with new material. What’s also great, she quickly understood my weak spots and now steers me into specific lessons to improve those areas. 50 minutes blaze by – and I cannot wait for the next session – and that is a great feeling to have! ะดัะถะต ะดัะบัั! A+

Roman is an excellent tutor! I have tried several times to study Ukrainian language with home materials and other tutors and have previously been unable to keep my progress. Not with Roman! He is engaging and enjoyable to work with, keeps me on track and helps motivate me when my energy for lessons falls off. I have a very busy schedule and find it hard to find time to work on my Ukrainian studies but I look forward to my lessons with Roman and working with him motivates me to keep going. I am sure all stwill get the most out of any student and I am making more progress than I have before without question.

Roman is a very precise and thoughtful teacher and very down to earth. I have learned a lot of Ukrainian, and about beautiful Cherkassy, and itโs only been one month! Looking forward to continuing my studies with him.

I had some knowledge of the Russian language but I needed help with understanding conversations and improving on my speech and diction, and Roman was open to do that, even trying to adjust the teaching schedule to sooth my hectic work timetable. I am happy I found him.

Learning Ukrainian with Roman has been a great experience so far. He has a very conversational approach to teaching and will get you to speak the language from day one. Roman is also very patient when it comes to mistakes and will offer corrections without being too intrusive and interrupting the flow of the conversation. This allows the student to freely experiment with the language and learn by trying. Furthermore, Roman’s extensive knowledge of English allows him to effectively explain different linguistic and grammatical aspects in an understandable fashion. It is also important to note that Roman has an amiable and easy-going personality which is very important for a language teacher. You can relax in his presence and discuss a variety of topics without it feeling awkward or forced. Overall, I cannot recommend his services enough for anyone who wishes to start speaking Ukrainian in a short time.

Lessons with Roman are immersive and interesting. He integrates both conversational language lessons, as well as grammar and vocabulary. We discuss different topics, while he corrects my language and helps me with pronunciation, provides guidance with grammar and goes over online study material/videos with me. He is the first tutor in my life, who even showed me some tricks of learning the language via AI, chatGPT. If you want to dedicate your time to learning the new language, Roman is a great choice. Highly recommended

Roman has been extremely helpful! His ability to navigate the English language and native mastery of Ukrainian and Russian makes him an ideal teacher for anyone looking to hone their skills in either language! He also gives plenty of homework so you can put in many more hours outside of the classroom to improve. I look forward to many more lessons and thank you for all your patience and hard work!

Roman is fun to work with. He does not make me feel bad when I make mistakes or struggle. I have tried 4 other tutors before him. Some I felt just did not care, some were totally depressing. I speak Russian and some past tutors did not like that. Roman is always upbeat and positive. He is friendly and genuinely interested and engaging. He is also great at explaining confusing points in a simple way. Recommend for someone who wants an individual rather than schoolbook approach.

Roman is a great tutor. He uses several resources that are interesting and topical, and he is friendly and patient with his students. He pushes you to not be shy and practice speaking Ukrainian, but is also happy to work through the challenges with you. His English is excellent, which is especially good for native speakers of English who are new to learning Ukrainian. I can definitely recommend Roman!
