| The following educational programmes are available: 1. Pre-University Programmes (preparation for university studies) 2. Programmes for language certificate exams (four levels) 3. Russian Language programmes 4. Business Russian Course content and style Our courses combine a strong syllabus with a
contemporary approach intended to build confidence and motivate
students. Imaginative skills work and regular changes of focus are
designed to capture students` interest. All our teaching takes place
in a relaxed atmosphere because we understand that expressing oneself
in a foreign language can be difficult. Laughter and humour help
to make our students feel more comfortable about experimenting with
the language and more willing to take risks! Our course programmes
focus on everyday spoken Russian and therefore all classroom activities
are designed to reflect the language people use for everyday communication.
The topics and materials used in our programes are chosen to reflect
real life with all its ups and downs.
