One-to-one General/Business
Russian Course in Limerick
Whether you want Russian lessons to help you in your general day-to-day life or for business needs, our made-to-order language courses can help you improve quickly and confidently.
While a General Russian course will provide you with enough linguistic ammunition to allow you to survive a short visit to the country (greetings, basic conversation and a solid grammatical foundation). Business courses are aimed at those wishing to work in the target language - so a working knowledge of etiquette in Russian business, as well as developing proficient reading and writing skills.
Our Russian courses would not be fixed to a specific curriculum, however. You know the specifics of what you will need from your new language, and all you need do is tell your teacher. Perhaps if you are taking a Business course, you may want to focus more on Russian telephone or email skills, or a specific vocabulary for your line of work. Equally, a General course will cover the fundamentals, but further focus in any particular area can easily be arranged with your teacher.
We arrange Business courses for many clients; primarily those working in international trade, overseas governments and universities, and employees of multinational firms who require a second language. Our General courses cater for people aiming to purchase overseas property, globetrotters, Russian language and culture devotees, as well as people who need to pass a particular Russian exam.

Info about Limerick
With around 100,000 residents in the city and its suburbs, Limerick is the third largest city in the Republic of Ireland, situated right in the middle of Cork and Galway. As with many of the more sizeable cities in Ireland, there has been an explosion of immigration into the country in the past decade, spurring on Limerick's tourism trade, as well as its reputation for its vibrant shopping and clubbing industries.
In recent years Limerick has become a haven for Polish and African immigrants, and their influences have become part and parcel of the city itself. The Polish community is the second largest in Ireland, second only to Dublin, making it a great place to pick up a Slavic tongue - or indeed any other language from the continent, with the almost continuous stream of European immigrants coming into the city, all the year round.

Info about Russian
As the most popular Slavic language with around 275 million speakers worldwide, Russian is the official language of Russia, and is spoken widely in countries that used to form republics of the now-dissolved USSR; for example Belarus, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan.
Russian is an extremely challenging language to learn for those with no experience of Slavic languages. First of all there's the hurdle of the Cyrillic alphabet, of which the Russians use their own 33-letter variant. Then there's the pronunciation - almost a world apart from any English dialect. Russian is classified as a 'level III' language (the second hardest level) in terms of difficulty for native English speakers, according to the Defence Language Institute of California; but the doors that learning Russian opens to you cannot be underestimated.
