I found this course enjoyable because it made a language that, at times can be very complicated and difficult, easy to learn. The structure of the course allowed us to practice our Russian while also learning about various topics such as famous Russian writers or cities thereby expanding our knowledge of not only the language but also its history and culture.

Tutor: Margarita Prieto-Acosta, Silvia Belluci (Beginners B)
Our teacher, Margarita, is extremely skilled in ensuring that students at all levels of comprehension have understood the material.
This course provides a really good grounding for learning the language and has encouraged me to continue.
