About the Course

Goal

Take learners from complete beginner to confidently communicating in Русский (Russian)—the language of literature, science, and Eurasian culture—through an immersive journey that combines practical conversation, cultural understanding, and real-world communication.


Finding Your Voice

Master the Cyrillic alphabet, pronunciation, and essential vocabulary while building confidence through greetings, introductions, numbers, and everyday expressions. Learners develop a solid foundation by understanding Russian sentence structure and the first grammatical cases used for possession, locations, and simple conversations.


Stepping Out into the World

Expand communication with present, past, and future tenses while mastering the core Russian grammatical cases. Practical roleplays in shopping, dining, travel, and healthcare help learners navigate real-life situations, while verbs of motion and everyday expressions make conversations more natural and confident.


Expressing Yourself & Mastering the Room

Refine fluency by using all six Russian cases, verb aspects, and spontaneous conversation in meaningful contexts. Learners strengthen listening, storytelling, and public speaking skills through immersive activities, culminating in an unscripted capstone speech that showcases their ability to communicate confidently in Russian.
