Meet Masha!

Masha is one of our best friends here in Tyumen. She helped us learning Russian last summer for 2 months. This past week she lived with us to help us with Russian. So it was a week of Russian almost 24/7. Masha is a really good teacher, so we learned not only new words, but the 'Russian' way to say something - how to pronounce things better, etc.

It was a lot of fun too, we watched Russian movies, laughed, cooked, and just lived like a family of friends for a week.

Directly after this time together, Masha had to go to Yekaterinburg for a month - we MISS her! She studies at the University there, but lives here. So how it works is that she goes there three times a year for a month and has REALLY intense classes.
