Why learn Russian?

 

Russian is one of the key languages in Europe, as it’s spoken not just across Russia itself, but in many of the countries once under the influence of the Soviet Union. Russian is to this day an important language of business and trade in Israel, Armenia, and many countries across Eastern Europe. With Russia’s economic boom, a Russian course abroad is a welcome achievement on any international CV, and learning the language will allow you to experience the true Russia - a country which has long hidden behind a language barrier.


 

What are the advantages of learning Russian abroad?

 
  • You’ll experience full immersion, speaking and hearing Russian in an authentic environment.
  • You’ll explore the rich culture behind Russian-speaking countries and get to see it for yourself, up close.
  • Your experiences will help boost your CV while also improving your international language profile.
  • You’ll be able to communicate with people across Eastern Europe and the Russian diaspora.
  • You’ll come home with memories of a new country and culture that you’ll never forget!
