One-to-one General/Business
Russian Course in Sandwell
If you want to be taught Russian for academic reasons, business needs or gain a working knowledge of the language for general purposes, our tailormade lessons are guaranteed to be the ideal solution.
General and Business courses in Russian differ in style and content: a General course will concentrate on developing confident conversational skills, making short visits to the country less of an exercise in frustration and more about building upon the foundations to your own ends. Business courses will centre more on formal, business communication, and focus more on reading and writing skills as you advance further.
It is your first session and your own requirements, however, which decide the precise content of the course. A Business course will generally include common conversational topics, as well as gaining greater fluency with writing letters and emails in Russian, as well as using the telephone. In the same way, those taking a General course who may need more knowledge of a certain aspect of Russian need only request it from their teacher.
Typical learners who choose our Business courses are import/export professionals, agents for multi-national companies, and those involved with foreign governments and universities. 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 Sandwell
Located right in the midst of the cities of Birmingham, Dudley, Walsall and Wolverhampton; Sandwell is a metropolitan borough in the West Midlands with a population of around 290,000 people in total, with West Bromwich the largest town in the vicinity.
There is a great deal of cultural diversity in the area, as Sandwell has in recent decades attracted many immigrants from India and Pakistan, causing the South Asian population of the borough to swell - now making up around 15% of the population. This makes many areas in Sandwell perfect for language study, thanks to the wide variety of foreign languages spoken locally.
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.
