Description

Stuck at intermediate Russian? Mishka helps you move past the plateau and start understanding how Russians actually speak. Built by a certified tutor. Tested with real learners.

WHY MISHKA IS DIFFERENT

Every lesson comes from a tutor with a certificate in teaching Russian as a foreign language, a bachelor's degree from Moscow State Linguistic University, and a master's in educational sciences from the University of Vienna. Then tested with intermediate learners. Just carefully structured Russian, built for the gap where most language apps stop being useful.

Your study time is valuable. Mishka exists because we couldn't find an app that actually met the needs of A1+ students ready to go beyond the basics, so we built one where every lesson counts.

Created by a certified language tutor

You choose what to focus on, not a locked path

Every lesson tested with real learners at the target level

Grammar sequenced so concepts build on each other properly

Hundreds of stories with recurring characters and a consistent world

Exercises that test comprehension, not just recognition

Most content works offline. Learn anywhere

New lessons and features added regularly

STORY-BASED LESSONS

Learn through short stories featuring Маша, her dog Пряник, wise neighbor Иван Петрович, and a cast of characters who grow with you across levels. At B2, you follow characters who moved to Russia and face real situations like job interviews, banking, and official documents. Tap any word for an instant translation. Listen with professional audio. Then practice with quizzes, fill-in-the-blanks, sentence reordering, matching, writing, and more.

Stories across 5 CEFR levels (A1 to C1)

Professional audio with word-by-word highlighting

Tap any word for instant dictionary lookup

10 exercise types, not just multiple choice

COMPLETE GRAMMAR COURSE

Hundreds of interactive grammar lessons from basic sentence structure through complex subordinate clauses. Every lesson sequenced intentionally, no random topic jumps.

Cases, aspect, motion verbs, conditionals, and more

10+ exercise types including sentence building, error correction, and minimal pairs

CONJUGATION & DECLENSION TRAINERS

Russian has hundreds of word endings and keeping them straight is one of the hardest parts of the language. Mishka has dedicated drill modes for both verb conjugation and noun declension. Pick which endings to practice, choose from built-in words or add your own, and drill until the right forms come naturally.

Choose specific cases or verb forms to focus on

Add your own words to practice with

Instant feedback on every answer

AI CONVERSATION PRACTICE

Practice real Russian with AI that adapts to your level. Complete structured missions or have a casual chat with real-time corrections and grammar explanations.

Dozens of guided missions and casual chat scenarios

Real-time corrections and vocabulary building

Three difficulties for each CEFR level (easy, medium, hard)

WRITING PRACTICE

Practice free writing in Russian with AI feedback, or test your spelling by writing prompted sentences in Russian.

SPACED REPETITION FLASHCARDS

Save any word from any lesson with one tap. Spaced repetition scheduling surfaces cards at the right time. Speed review and matching modes keep it fresh.

ADVANCED CONTENT (B2 to C1)

This is where most apps stop. Mishka keeps going with culture deep-dives, idiom lessons, and real slang, all taught through stories, not dry vocabulary lists.

Culture lessons (баня, Масленица, the world's deepest lake, and more)

Idiom lessons taught through context, not definitions

Slang mini-lessons

Full Russian immersion at B2+

ALSO INCLUDES

Placement test to find your level
