Sydney Russian Speaker Wanted!

Hi there!

Was wondering if there are any Russian speakers in this group who'd be interested in language sharing Russian for English in Sydney? Either that or teaching Russian perhaps?

This post is on behalf of my wife, though, she is unaware that I'm doing so; I'm trying to get something setup as a surprise for her birthday in July!

Full context; my wife is ESL with Russian as her first language. She was born and raised in Sydney and spoke almost totally Russian at home when she was growing up. She went to Russian School when she was young and both her grandparents spoke only Russian, or preferred to. However, as is common with the passing of time and growing up and entering fully into the school system, she started to lose her fluency and her skills.

So I'm hoping to find either someone who'd be down to language share and help my wife regain some of her fluency; I'm sure it'll be like riding a bike once she starts speaking with someone regularly again.

Any advice or information would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
