Spoken by about 400 million people in the world, Russian is considered one of the five most influential world languages and is one of the most widely spoken languages in Europe. It is also one of the six official languages of the United Nations. Russian culture is especially rich and fascinating.
Russian is an important language of culture and science. Russian writers, composers and filmmakers have enriched the world’s culture. Science has been advanced as a result of the achievements and inventions by the famous Russian physicists, chemists and mathematicians.
With the opening of Eastern Europe, Russia and CIS countries the region has opened up for independent trade, business and cultural contacts. For the first time, direct business contacts have become possible between Russia and the West.
Considering the high market potential and the strong business development across various industries in the huge territory or Russia and the emerging markets in Russian spoken countries such as Russia, CIS, Central Asia and the entire Eastern Europe, a knowledge of Russian language can be an asset for any career development in the field of foreign affairs, marketing, business and trade.
Those who study Russian will find themselves well-equipped for positions in diplomatic service, international affairs, human rights, development work, public service, communication, publishing, travel and tourism, as well as teaching.
Those new students who acquire knowledge of Russian might find themselves in demand for translating, interpreting and for consultancies in business, health, and legal matters especially when considering that many Russians do not speak any English.

RUSSIAN FOR ADULTS
The Easy Way!
Modern life is hectic. It's busy with work and home commitments, and you are likely to have no time to devote to special language courses, that require countless hours of studying. We understand that, and hence designed this course with you in mind.
The Russian language course for adults is aimed at you, complete beginners, and its main purpose is to develop colloquial Russian in basic conversation in order for you to feel comfortable without an interpreter or an English-Russian phrase book. Therefore grammar and reading just serve as a background for learning the language.
The lessons are built in a form of consistent dialogue between you and teacher on the basis of the learnt material. The subjects of the conversations are situations close to what would be real in work and home environments.

GCSE Russian
“I have recently started to learn Russian with ‘ Russian Community MK’ and am utterly taken with the language. Of course, at times, it becomes difficult and there is a lot to take in but it is very enjoy
able.
The class size is small and this allows us all to really interact with the teacher as well as with each other. The course materials are very well thought out and the pace, though challenging, is manageable. You have to do some homework but you can’t expect to progress sufficiently without putting some effort in.
Our teacher really understands the challenges that students face and how to explain the correct vocabulary and grammar to us in a meaningful way. I would absolutely recommend this course to anyone who wants to learn Russian, no matter the reason!”
