About this listen

Episode 1 — Welcome to Russian without rush. (Recommended level: B1+–B2 (intermediate to upper-intermediate)

Why did I choose this name? And why create another podcast for learners of Russian?

My name is Maria Arapova. I’m a certified teacher of Russian as a foreign language, and in this podcast I invite you to listen to authentic Russian speech — calmly, thoughtfully, and without pressure.

You won’t find traditional grammar lessons here. Instead, you will hear:

— short reflections on different topics — readings of small texts — conversations with guests — discussions of interesting words and cultural nuances

Each episode includes a transcript with short vocabulary and grammar notes (PDF available in the description).

I truly believe that language is acquired through regular listening. Before we spoke our native language, we heard it constantly around us.

In the next episodes, I’ll read two short texts — and you’ll try to guess which one was written by AI.

Subscribe and join me in learning Russian — slowly, deeply, and without rush.
