Highlights of the course

🏐 Practical approach. Unlike most of the courses that only provide you with videos, the highlight of this course is quizzes, interactive games and practical tasks where you need to go over the same language patterns over and over again, which helps you memorize new information.

Even if you know the topic, I suggest that you do at least some exercises. Many students say they discovered new information in the videos on the topics they thought they already knew.

 

🎾 You learn the language for the sake of communicating with locals and consume information, right? That's why I picked authentic videos (TV commercials, songs, sketches, instagram shorts) and included them to the course so that you get used to real, not textbook Russian.
