Most Russian language schools and academies offer traditional teaching, based on the repetition of simple linguistic structures with no connection to properly structured content or concrete skills. However, teachers and psychologists believe that the best way to stimulate language learning is not to subject the learner to formalized, linear learning - for example, with rote learning - but rather, to encourage imagination and learning through sensory exploration in order to be able to understand and interpret what is around us. 

This allows the brain to work and learn a second language in the most natural way possible, in the same way that we learned our mother tongue. 

You will be able to understand simple texts on different topics, as well as to explain them orally in a fluent way.

This 100% personalized online program is the most comprehensive preparation program for developing communication skills in order to pass the CEFR B1 Russian exam”

It is proven that learning languages increases your Intelligence. Learning a foreign language strengthens the brain's neural networks”
