Studying Russian

And now as the icing on the cake! You can add Russian language courses to your program! We can organize  courses for you at the local language school or with your host family, so you can improve your Russian not only during your conversations with the family, but also by learning with qualified teachers.

The availability of this option depends on the location that you choose - it is possible in almost all cities but might be limited in small towns. 

Study in Homestay or Study in School

Here is a recap of the options:

1. You can study Russian either in a language school, where you will be attending classes for a couple of hours per week with other foreign students. There will be approximately 2-4 students in a group. Your professional teacher will be a native Russian speaker (of course) and he or she will help you to learn Russian pronunciation, grammar, etc.

2. You can study Russian with your host family without any visits to the local language school for only $5/hour. A member of your host family will practice conversational Russian with you using teaching materials. It is important to understand, that there are not any professional licensed teachers in the host families, so they won’t be able to study grammar and things like that - only general conversational topics like culture, history, music, cinema, etc. 

We can find a school in the city that you have chosen.
