Those who have benefitted from these Russian classes have been those investing in or buying property overseas, those married to overseas nationals, people setting off on a round-the-world trip, enthusiasts in Russian culture, and those enthusiastic to pass a specific exam in Russian.

Face-to-Face 1-to-1 (Individual) Business Russian
These lessons in Russian are meant for those that feel that learning Russian would make a change in their work. For starters, it is expedient to learn how to say hello/goodbye, as well as basic business protocol; once the basics have been mastered, reading and writing come to the fore. Students who have greatly benefitted have been involved in import/export, international negotiations and acquisitions, jobseekers in multinational companies where another language is required, and those working in the international academia and government circuits. Even on our most fundamental beginner's lesson, students can anticipate ending the lesson with basic telephone Russian and e-mail Russian skills for communicating, as well as survival Russian if a short visit to the country is needed.

russian Songs
"Ya Soshla S Uma" (All the Things She Said) - t.A.T.u
You’ve probably heard this song (or at least its name) because this is one of the few Russian pieces that was a hit in the USA, and even an English version was made as a result, although it primarily shot to fame for its 2002 video featuring a controversial kiss between two girls. The chorus repeats at least 4 times, so it’s quite easy to pick up some words and phrases (like “running through my head”: А они говорят - виновата сама). Plus, you’ll also have the English version to compare both lyrics in case you have any doubts about your understanding of the song. Listen to this catchy tune here.russian Songs
