One-to-one General/Business
Russian Course in Reading
Whether you're looking to learn a language for personal or business reasons, our tailor-made courses can help you achieve your aims.
General Russian courses will cover Survival Russian, allowing you to be comfortable during short visits to the country; polite conversation, practicable vocabulary and a strong grammatical foundation. Business courses are great for those whose career will be moving overseas - you would learn the fundamental protocols for engaging in business in Russian, and later would start to focus more on the integral skills of reading and writing.
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. Similarly, General courses can delve deeper into certain areas of the language that you know you will need.
Typical learners who choose our Business courses are import/export professionals, agents for multi-national companies, and those involved with foreign governments and universities. Clients of our General Russian courses include people moving abroad, those entering a Russian family through marriage, those studying for a Russian exam, as well as those who are simply passionate about Russian language and culture.

Info about Reading
A small town with a population of around 250,000 people in the urban area, Reading is located west of London and is a major retail centre, with two major shopping malls and three smaller-scale arcades. It is also the location for the annual Reading music festival, which started in 1971 and has continued to grow in popularity.
Reading has a fairly wide diversity of ethnicity; featuring a large Afro-Caribbean contingent and many from the south Asian subcontinent. This makes it a great city in which to learn languages like Chinese, Hindi and Urdu; though with its proximity to London, finding teachers of other languages is no difficulty.
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.
