GCSE Russian tutors

Russian is offered at GCSE and A-level (Edexcel) but with thin school provision. Most students taking it are heritage speakers or ab initio enthusiasts. The grammar load is heavy: six cases, verbal aspect, motion verbs, and Cyrillic script for ab initio learners. Tutoring helps most with grammar consolidation for heritage speakers (who often speak fluently but write with errors) and with the literary set texts at A-level: Pushkin, Chekhov, Bulgakov and others depending on the year. Native fluency is necessary; UK-spec familiarity is harder to find. Be explicit about whether the student is heritage or beginner.
