Testimonials: Live & Learn Russian

"My host family was wonderful beyond belief; she went shopping with me one Saturday and even had a friend accompany me to a Russian orthodox church service when she worked too late to take me herself. When I left for the airport at 4:30 a.m., she and her son went with me, which helped a great deal as the taxi driver was headed to the wrong airport!

The experience was the opportunity of a lifetime. I enjoyed meeting other students. It is a chance of a lifetime to meet people and see other countries. I am already planning my return trip with Languages Abroad!"
(Maureen, age 61)

"The educational experience I received was outstanding and of a greater quality than I expected. The teachers were competent and sharp, the home-stay was a great experience, and the extra-curricular activities provided by the school aided the educational process. Also, the staff was great. I would highly recommend this school. I loved the school and, more specifically, the teachers. My experience says "go for it."

I loved the entire experience. Prior to leaving, the staff at Languages Abroad helped me get adequately prepared so that I felt I knew what I was getting into. And once I arrived and got into the program, I was more than satisfied. Excellence marked everything about the school. I was very happy with my entire experience."
(John, age 28)

"I studied for one month in Moscow during the summer. I had such a great time that I am going back again this summer! Languages Abroad provided a helpful service in planning the perfect program to study abroad. The staff was wonderful, and I attended one of the best language schools I have ever been to. The school could not be more comforting, reassuring, and supportive. The staff, other students, and overall atmosphere was great! My host family was amazing. I still remain in close contact with them. We treat each other as if we are literally part of each other s families!"

How to learn Russian abroad?

  • Master the Basics
    In the pursuit of language mastery, starting with a firm grasp of the basics is paramount. Establishing a strong foundation in grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation lays the groundwork for more advanced learning and attaining fluency.

  • Utilize Technology
    Tools such as AI chatbots and language learning apps can provide structured lessons, supplement learning and highlight specific weaknesses in your English ability.

  • Practice Speaking
    Active participation in speaking, despite initial discomfort or fear of making mistakes, is crucial for language growth. Seeking out opportunities for conversation facilitates real-world application and is the quickest way to boost confidence. Soliciting feedback from peers, tutors, or language instructors will also offer valuable insights and strategies for improvement.

  • Write to Improve
    Embracing writing as a means of practice and self-expression further solidifies language skills and reinforces grammatical structures and vocabulary usage.

  • Expand Vocabulary
    Regular exposure to new words and phrases, whether through reading, listening, or vocabulary exercises, broadens linguistic proficiency and enhances expressive capabilities. Similarly, honing listening skills through exposure to podcasts, audiobooks, and news broadcasts sharpens comprehension abilities and acustoms learners to diverse accents and speech patterns.

  • Set Goals
    Setting achievable language learning goals serves as a roadmap for progress and provides a sense of direction and purpose. Tracking milestones and celebrating small victories along the way serves as a source of motivation and encouragement to stay committed to the learning journey.
