| Our approach to Russian
Language Teaching stems from the mechanism of human
information processing since it is inseparably linked
to the way we learn languages. This approach allows
us to design courses which result in quick and efficient
learning. |
| Unlike standard language schools, we realise that
all students of Russian possess different strengths
and weaknesses as well as channels that they use
in order to learn better. That is why we aim at
satisfying both auditory and visual modalities simultaneously.
As a matter of fact, we are all different, thus
every learner should be treated individually! |

|
Being frequently discriminated, correct pronunciation
of Russian is a significant problem to a vast majority
of learners. Therefore, we provide enjoyable practice
in Russian sounds based on Received Pronunciation
so that the learners are able to produce comprehensible
utterances, do not confuse words, and do not confuse
native speakers who listen to them! They told the
sailors to find the code / They told the sailors
to find the cod. |
| We do not teach artificial language which "does
not exist". We draw our students' attention to the
existence of different varieties of Russian, dialects
and accents, since RUssian is not all uniform! It
constantly changes like all languages in the world! |
|
All language skills receive equal attention: speaking,
listening, reading and writing are all even! We
do not discriminate grammar, vocabulary or correct
pronunciation either! |
We teach how to successfully deal with anxiety,
which is natural to occur in the process of learning
and language production.
However, we know how to develop a positive side
of anxiety which works as an "editor" of your mistakes,
allows you to correct yourself promptly, and provides
you with feedback on how well you have mastered
a certain area of the language. |
