"Name every object around you right now in Russian." Me: *literally just started learning greetings one hour ago*

I used these strategies (without knowing what to call them) years ago when I was studying Russian in the military. I used to walk to work, about 45 minutes each way and as I walked I would describe my surroundings in my head, or make a list of things to do, or simply re-hash over the previous day's vocabulary. I ended up graduating at the top of my class and giving a valedictory speech in Russian. :)

"Name every object around you right now in Russian." *me, frantically trying to find an object i can name*

This was recommended at the right time 🙏

I would love one day for my Russian to be as good as your English Daria. You explain in English better than some American English speakers.

im russian and its so intresting listen about my language from another people)))

This woman is the real deal. Smart and beautiful 😍 thank you for your videos.

Looks so smart with so clear English ,that's amazing ,thank you

I love your pronunciation in Russian, and English. You are very easy to listen to, and follow great job.

Ha! I had started I could pretend I'm in Russia, and then I started saying "Da" to my friends instead of "Yes"... Great tips, thanks!

The care n detail with which you explain those well thought out examples is so motivating and condusive to learning. Fabulous habit to develop! Thanks a million.

Great tips. Thank you. The Russian language is one of the most beautiful languages spoken.

I agee with you 100%. actually I am a language teacher. I teach Korean to foreign workers in Korea (south) I would apply your advise to my students. Благодарю вас!

I don't know if I am nicely surprised by your perfect English pronounciation or by your smart way to explain how russian languange can be easily understood. прикуьлно!

These are incredibly helpful tips! Thank you!

You are an awesome language teacher. Love your style and personality.

These are excellent and very practical advice. Thank you.

Thanks so much, Daria! I realized I was already subconsciously doing this a little bit and it did help now that I think of it. Now that I am actually conscious of it, I can do it even more! Thank you for all your help.

Спасибо Daria, you are a fantastic teacher, this is what was missing in my everyday practice (to think russian instead of translating in my head)!

Oooh, I didn't even know you had a newsletter! I'm so excited! :D thank you for teaching us.

Impressive! Practical methods. Thank you.

You are very intelligent Daria! And you know the subject and teaching method so well! I think, your personal experience with studding English and analyzing your own minds working ( the sign of superb intelligence) makes you such a great teacher!

Your videos have helped me to learn the Russian language in ways that I haven't discovered before! This is beyond helpful and such a joy to have found. Please, if you are able, continue these. Thank you so so much. Your voice is assuring and so lovely too!

Your petren and your style to teach russian is so easy and good, I love Russian and try to learn from your videos ... It's really working)

your hair colour .. amazing...

Just started learning Russian this week and am very excited. I was adopted from a city south of Moscow as a young boy and never learned the language. Although I’m only a few days in, I don’t find learning it to be as overwhelming as learning other languages including Spanish. This might be due to my inclination to learn but I find it kind of easy to catch on reading and writing- speaking not so much

What makes you a great teacher, is not just your abilities, but you are thoughtful. You are an amazing person, I thank you for your videos.

The more I listen to this language the more I fall in love with it 😋 thanks for the video

This is great advice and can be applied to learning other languages as well.

Wonderful video! I am learning Russian now, and want to watch as many informative videos as I can from native speakers. My grandmother was fluent in Russian, and many other languages and I have a passion for Russian as well..which is beautiful. I want to learn and speak as much as I can!

Your way to explain is just amazing.

Thank you for making this video, you're obviously smart and creative.

Thank you for some excellent advice; I shall try to put it into practice (as soon as i learn e Sufficient words!) Btw.... you speak english beautifully, i could listen to your accent for hours.... now if i can just get my tongue arount vy and ty!!!

Great advice! Your timing is amazing! I just started using these techniques more recently. It's a very simple, yet effective idea. Thinking in Russian while relaxed is key...

Your english it's so clear! I'm learning russian and also training my english listening. I'm grateful! Greetings from Brazil!

Useful class with eloquent pronunciation may you be happy, healthy and successful always.

at the beginning I used to put some post-it on the objects around me, every noun written in cyrillic and below how to pronounce them: malakò, gazèta, tilifòn, kampiùter, haladìlnik…I think it was very useful, i felt myself surrounded by the russian language! Thank you for your videos, a wonderful way to learn English and Russian at the same time

I've just started learning Russian. And you make it so much easier! I get a classroom vibe from your videos and that really helps. Definitely subscribing, and thank you for the tips!

Useful class with eloquent pronunciation may you be happy, healthy and successful always

Thank you 🙏 thank you sooooo much for posting this kind of videos. Really really appreciate you. Больше спасибо 🙏 тебе.

Great tips not only for learning russian. Thank you!

I speak 6 languages and have just started learning Russian and the advice you give in this video is the best I have heard so far as it is what I have done with all other languages.

Thank you too much... i am a new student in Russian in OFA city . i like your way in teaching . all your lessens too useful to me .... Thank you again

You are my teacher now....thank you so much for your valuable tips.... I will apply these tips😃

Привет из Латинской Америки из Лимы Перу 🇵🇪! 👍

I so happy i found this!! My parents are Polish so i can understand a bit when i hear them speaking or when i hear people in the streets, but as you said when it comes to talking, i find that my grandmother gets bored with the conversation very easily!! Thank you for the tips, they were very helpful and i will definitely use them. I also appreciate that Russian and Polish are quite similar with the words that we use, so this will be the next language i move onto! :)

Thank you so much. This seems like it should be such an obvious tip but until this video I never really considered doing it this way! It's brilliant and so very helpful.

Such a beautiful presentation. Thank you.

Thanks for uploading this vidio.

Безусловно шикарное видео! Вы говорите прекрасно по-английски и мне очень нравится как вы артикулируете говоря по-русски. Вы молодец! больше хороших видео !

You are the best!!! This video is just what I needed.

So far I like all your videos, and you are so nice to give them for free! Besides this you are easy to listen to and your hair color changes a lot also - I like all of them so far. Obviously you are well educated, at what age did you start to learn English it's very impressive. I also enjoy the humor and laughing at your own drawings it helps me to see that you do not take yourself so seriously.

Хороший совет. Я сделаю! Спасибо.

This helps me a lot! I am a beginner. This fastens my learning. Every time I learn a new phrase I immediately apply the thinking in russian method, and I could not only remember it the next day I am actually believing it. This definitely improves my confidence when trying to speak Russian with Russians. Bolshoy spasibo! :)

I was happy to see you mention кофе. I knew that word in Russian. ☕ I just started learning Russian this week.

This is very good advice, and applies to all languages to switch your head into the right way of functioning. Very well done.

По таким видео можно еще новичкам улучшать навык понимания английской речи на слух. Класс👍

This is so informative and really so great. Thanks Daria!

This helped a lot! I'm always trying to translate Russian words into English ones. It just makes so much more sense to look at a table and think стол, rather than "стол" = "table"

Thank you Lady for sharing beautiful Russian learning tools.

You are my teacher from today.

"Speaking" is really two components: Listening comprehension, and also outgoing expression of ideas. The former is more difficult. (I'm really addressing communication, not speaking. But, I believe that is what you are really addressing here.)

I pretty much love you Daria. I am beginning to try and learn Russian and enjoy it so much. Your youtube channel, podcast, audiobooks, etc, are sooo helpful. Plus I love your voice. I just want to say thank you for providing these materials with no cost. I think that's incredible. I will be glad to pay for some of the things on your site and feel good about showing my support. Спасибо!

I'm currently studying several other languages, but clicked here because I've been considering adding Russian to the list. I think these tips apply to learning any language, very good advice! Wish me luck!

I am a Norwegian, and I speak Russian. I have been teaching Norwegian to Russians for 10 years, and one huge difference between Russians and Norwegians when it comes to learning a foreign language, is a thing the lady in the vid is mentioning, although more as a universal fact considering everyone, namely: in an educational setting, Russians are nervous of saying something wrong, making mistakes in front of the class and to make a fool of themselves. In a math class you can just sit still and stfu, nobody notice your lack of knowledge. In a language class however, in order to improve, one HAS TO actively use the language AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE in order to improve in practical use of the language. When I was studying Russian with my fellow Norwegian friends at university, we had great fun! We made loads of mistakes all the time, but noone were afraid of failing, we all knew the purpose of the class; to learn and improve everyday, learning by doing, basically. And boy, did we improve! Our relaxed attitude helped us a long way in acquiring knowledge and skills, much more so than what I see in most Russian stone faces in the classes. Therefore, it is one of the first things I mention to a new class of Russians starting to learn Norwegian: leave your stiffness and solemnity at home (or back in the USSR, where this way of thinking has its origins), lower your shoulders and have fun! You will learn Norwegian much faster, and you will enjoy it too! My impression is that most Westerners think the same way as Norwegians when it comes to learning languages, so the advice in the vid is somewhat more relevant to Russians learning a foreign language, than to Westerners. The advice might be good though, for the Chinese and the North Koreans.

You are an excellent teacher. Your approach is the same one that my favourite Spanish professor used when I was in university. Her teaching style worked so well that I eventually started to dream in Spanish.

Nice, this video was awesome. Actually I'm learning English and I want learn Russian. Thanks for the good content and now you have a new subscriber 😀

Next week I'm going to subscribe to your Real Club!!

Learn Russian my comrades, we are going to need it.

brilliant ! thanks

I’d love to learn Russian because of you , you made it easy , I thought it too hard to learn many thanks to you

Excellent concise and informative valuable advice. Thank you!

I am learning russian to be able to speak to my husband in his mother tongue. Your videos are fantastic, thank you!

Outstanding information ‼️Thank You 🇷🇺🇺🇸

This is how I learned English and French first. I'm currently learning Russian and even though it is a little hard I'm really enjoying it. Greetings from Mexico!!!

Thanks for this very inspiring explanation !

I really love the Russian language and Russian people. They are beautiful ❤

That accent😍😍💘

That's excellent advice, I never thought of it like that. Thank you.

I was a bit skeptical when I clicked the video but it sounds really useful. I'm starting right away. Thanks.

Чувствуется, что русский у девушки родной язык))) Подпишусь, посмотрю как иностранцев учат)

The same advice you can to use for learning any foreign language.

I love your honesty.

Thank you very much REAL RUSSIAN CLUB for this interesting tips.

Not to promote alcoholism, but talking after a few beers is MUCH easier. Words seem to flow, I think because we are more relaxed. I lived in Latin America for four years and taught myself Spanish to near fluency. . I realized at one point, when I reached a conversational level, that I started thinking in Spanish. It came naturally, but I will try your method by forcing myself to think in Russian even at this beginner level. . We are at the mercy of native teachers. One day I wanted to write down all the things I did at home and learn to say them in Russian. "Im going to make up my bed"...."I wonder whats in the fridge" etc. Problem is, where can we find these phrases? We can't trust a translator. Even some of the most simple phrases I make notes of, a Russian friend looked at them, and corrected about 30% of them saying "no, no one would say it that way in Russian"

Универсальный совет, спасибо! Поможет в изучении любого языка. Very universal advice, thank you! It can help with any language. Так же хотел бы посоветовать читать литературу (желательно) классическую, как например: "Горе от ума" Грибоедова.Но только тогда, когда освоитесь и будете уверены в себе(не через месяц).

This is a wonderful helpful video -- these are all really great tips for learning *any* language!

I was needing this video right now. Спасибо!!

I need to learn proper Russian. I can speak Russian to people but I learned in the US when I was a teenager from other teenagers and i'm too slang. Plus English my 2nd language because I spoke French first with my family. I tell people all the time to try to think in that language. The problem is over time you mix everything at least for me. I mix all 3 languages mentally and if I'm not careful I sound like a mess lol

Excellent advice Daria !!! Thank you ...... I'm going to start doing this today.....

Thanks for those great tips !

After five years of Russian in school, I still couldn't speak or understand very well. I had to live there for a couple years AS I was studying the language before I could be fluent.

Time to think in Russian!

Nicely explained. Bravo!

Большое спасибо Дорогая Элегантная учительница ❤

Learn how to think in Russian.. RUSH B!

I just found this video and I'm trying to learn russian. 🇺🇸

I like how you speak English and Russian. I do not know so much english, but I could understand what are you saying. It will help me to learn Russian.

Thanks Daria, that was very useful information.
