Родительный Падеж - Preposition overview!
Ok, so just as a reference, I've gathered all the prepositions used with Родительный Падеж. These are all the prepositions that you'll use Родительный Падеж with. (Bar maybe a few very obscure ones - on the eve of, etc)
I haven't covered some of the less common ones, but I will. This may look intimidating - like a lot of stuff, but if you go through it one by one and understand why they're genitive, it's really not that bad.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| С | From | Кро́ме | Except | По́сле | After(time) |
| Без | Without | Из-за | from behind | Сре́ди | Among |
| Вме́сто | Instead of | Из | From | Про́тив | Across(from) |
| Во Вре́мя | During | До | Until | У | At, by |
| Вокру́г | Around | Ми́мо | Past, by | От | (Away) from |

I realize I haven't covered all of these, I will definitely make another post just to cover the ones regarding 'position' - Около, Вокруг, Против, У, and для/до are also quite important, but I am quite eager to move on to the accusative case tomorrow!
