Thank you for this lesson. I am a TOTAL beginner. I’m going to copy these into a notebook and practice!

Great teaching, terrible puns, I appreciate both of them, thank you.

You have a great pronunciation of letter «Ы» , don't be shy.

I am a 50 year old mom and I just started learning Russian. This video was perfect for me. It is so informative and easy to watch. Thank you! It was also funny to watch you discribe some letters, that look so familiar to me, being a Greek, but so strange to English people. I think the letter you discribed as "a house" ( д ) often looks more like the Greek delta ( Δ ), which looks like a triangle, but in Russian it is flat on the top and has two "feet" :)

I started my japanese journey on Youtube several years ago, and now I'm taking the first step in my russian journey. Great video, easy to follow and lively. :)

Hi, I am a native russian speaker) And that was actually a great explanation 😄🌺 I am surprized by how you found such good sound equivalents in English Great job!😃👍

I am a 70-year-old mother of three sons -- and desire to learn Russian for transcription purposes, transcribing from Russian literature into English. It occurred to me that it would be great to know how to pronounce what it is I am transcribing! THIS IS SOOOO HELPFUL. Bless you for this work.

I can imagine how hard this can be for non-Russian speakers.

То чувство когда знаешь русский и пришел посмотреть чему тут учат😅

My son is 5 and autistic, I myself am also autistic.. He loves the Russian language and has already learned the alphabet, and can read in it.. So, I started learning by listening to Russian music..

The reason why I wanna learn the Russian alphabet is to sing Russian songs

Thank you so much for these videos. As a woman, probably close to the same age as your mom with no background in Russian, I appreciate the approach you're taking. I am having no trouble following you, and your little extra tips of association are helpful.

My dear old babushka of a grandmother was from Minsk. When I was a little boy (10)she would say terms of endearment in soft Russian to me. I never understood being from rural New England. Now 82 and think of her making the immigration to the U.S. when she was only 14 to escape the pogroms. Solid Russian stock and tough as nails. She is missed. I will watch your lessons and think of her struggling to learn English. Nice presentation.

Noy going to lie, i have watched multiple YouTubers explain the Russian alphabet, used multiple apps, visited specialized websites, and at the moment of giving up, your video came up, i clicked it (seemed like a cool guy) and oh my word, this video game me such a better insight and pronunciation assistance than any other media I've utilized! Instant like, instant subscribe click and hoping nothing but the best or you (and your mum, hope she can speak Russian) Cant wait to continue to watch the rest of your videos! And if only i knew how to start a business in Russian, i would love to!

Finally someone explained the alphabet as a whole,...now I have a better understanding.

25 years ago I took two years of Russian in college. I'm happy to report I still remembered most of the alphabet. I can't speak a full sentence but I remembered most of the sounds! I'm sooooooooooooooooo glad Prof. Macura graded on a curve!

My brother studied languages at the Defense Language Institute Foreign Language Center in California. The pace of study was intense. Students had to master the language course in 36-64 weeks. Psychologically it was very difficult, but fortunately he was helped by Yuriy Ivantsiv's book "Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign languages”. The book " Polyglot Notes" became a desk book for my brother, because it has answers to all the problems that any student of a foreign language has to face. Thanks to the author of the channel for this interesting video! Good luck to everyone who studies a foreign language and wants to realize their full potential!
