Hello, friends!
My name is Nikita — or just Nick.
I’m originally from the Vologda region in Russia (not to be confused with Volgograd 😄). These days, I live in beautiful Portugal and teach Russian as a foreign language online.
In addition to teaching, I’m also a certified fitness coach. I create personalized training programs for people all over the world 💪
What you might not know: I used to run a small handmade chocolate business — so yes, I’ve literally crafted joy with my own hands! 🍫
I’m passionate about languages, fitness, and life itself. I love cooking (especially trying out new recipes!), cycling in the hills of Portugal, and swimming — these things keep me energized and inspired.
I also run several social media channels where I share tips for learning Russian, cultural insights, and glimpses into my daily life.
My Russian teaching includes one-on-one lessons and online speaking clubs in small groups.
On my YouTube, TikTok and Instagram channels you will find fun and helpful videos for Russian learners, and even a podcast called Balalaika FM.

Let’s make learning Russian fun, friendly, and personal — see you soon!
