SUMMARY
In this Russian Language course which consists of several levels, we will 1) overcome our fears of learning Russian language, 2) acquire a basic level of Russian needed to communicate, to be understood, and to understand other people, 3) get familiar with the language so it is no longer a stranger to us. This class continues to cover the fundamentals of Russian language (that we started in Levels 1 and 2) and provides a solid base for communication. We will practice speaking and understanding, expanding our vocabulary and grammar knowledge. 



WHAT WE WILL LEARN
In Level 5, we will dive deeper into Russian verbs (verb tenses and conjugations) and start learning how to type in Russian.


Why this sequence of lessons? 
In traditional study of Russian, a lot of emphasis is put on studying the minute details of each letter and sound, and it takes months for students to progress which leaves them discouraged. 
In this class, a lot of emphasis will be put on the desire of learners to communicate in the target language. They want to say something, to read something, to understand others. We cover the most used vocabulary and grammar in the sequence that is recommended by polyglots who study Russian as a foreign language.
