Max, I can assure you that we, non Russians learning the language, appreciate this history and architecture to the next level. As cold and rainy as it may be the city is breathtaking. Stunningly gorgeous. Thank you for showing us the city.

Max, you are absolutely right about the influence of teachers on pupils. I had the worst Latin teacher in the world when I was young and I hated him and the language. Later on, when I was studying to be an attorney, one of the subjects was "roman law" and I wanted to read old texts in Latin but didn't have the knowledge to do it, so I got a fabulous Latin teacher who taught me not only the basic to be able to translate but much more and I loved it....
With you we don't have problems, you make us to love the Russian language. Спасибо, спасибо большое !!!!

Я изучила русский язык когда мне было 11 лет во Вьетнаме и мне очень нравится ваше произношение. Я была в Санкт-Петербурге 4 года назад и теперь скучаю по нему каждый день. Спасибо вам за это видео.

Ps: After watching your channel for a year, this past week I started listening to your Russian podcasts.

[adlee]

Thank you, Max! You're the only Russian teacher I've seen on YouTube who actually speaks Russian the whole time and not 90% English, 10% Russian.

Recently came back from St. Petersburg, it was a wonderful city, and I met many nice people, the area around the Hermatage is beautiful. Thank you Max for your interesting content and care to your students, with you studying the language is fun and interesting and never tedious or boring! Пока пока!

[marianneriourika]

Супер видео Макс! Мои ученики почти всё поняли. Простые слова, хорошие объяснения. Ясное произношение. Огромное спасибо!

[sandromartelli]

Great video again! I’ve rediscovered the will to learn Russian after so many years

[voyteck]

По той же причине, по которой ты ненавидел свой урок истории, и этот город я ненавидел русский язык в школе. Но теперь я снова открываюсь и влюбляюсь в него также благодаря таким людям, как ты.

[katciemiega]

I love Piter! :) Funny, as I've had a great Russian teacher at school and because of her I've always admired language and cultural heritage and when going there finally in person, it was a dream.

[Alfy]

Thanx for the video Max! 3 years ago I visited your city and there is no doubt that it is the most beautiful and also very cozy. I hope to return there.

[missamelia]

Hey there! Such a nice video, I would looove to visit this city! Thank you for all you hard work and all the videos that you are making! Please keep going, it's really useful.
