Russian

Russian for Beginners
Why Americans like to smile while Russian people do it only on special occasions...Why Americans care about their privacy but there’s no term for it in Russian...All this and much more you are invited to learn in my class. It’s for those with no or very little knowledge of the Russian language and culture. We’ll focus on pronunciation, basic expressions vocabulary, as well as the peculiarity of the Cyrillic Alphabet which enables you to read any text in Russian. Communication in a new language is not an immediate trick but it may well be a fun life-long process for you to choose. Remember, learning a language can help you prevent Alzheimers! Taught by Tatiana Gaines.
