Russian Beginners and Beginners Plus
Здравствуйте! This course is designed as an introduction to the Russian language and culture for absolute beginners, but will also be suitable for those who have some basic knowledge in Russian and would like to build on their skills. You will learn to communicate in, and understand Russian in a range of everyday situations. There are also plenty of fascinating insights into modern Russia and traditional customs.
During the course you will learn to introduce yourself, talk about your family and friends, order some food and drinks, ask where something is and how far it is, understanding what there is in town and when it’s open, learn numbers to 200 and be confident in reading Cyrillic script.

Please ensure that you read the additional information sections about the course book and having classes via Zoom.
