Meet the Teacher / Shkolarus Russian School in Calgary

Our school is run by its founder and professional teacher Yana Zilberova, who is a native speaker of Russian and avid promoter of the beautiful Russian language in Calgary and area.

Yana's CV includes:

- University degrees in Russian speech therapy, early childhood education, and secondary school education (Science), and

- Over 20 years of professional experience in education, including 18 years of continuous teaching practice in Calgary: Russian language instruction in both classroom and one-on-one settings, Russian speech consulting, Russian pronunciation improvement and accent reduction support.

Yana’s own children — Lesya and Lev — are fully bilingual. They were raised in Canada from infancy and are adults now. They use both Russian and English languages with equal fluency at native speaker level thanks to professional Russian teaching techniques adapted for a different linguistic environment and delicately applied in their upbringing.
