Course Descriptions

This course is an introduction to Russian language. Designed for students with no prior knowledge of Russian, it aims at building their linguistic and communicative skills in the four areas of language learning, i.e., listening, speaking, reading, and writing. By the end of the course students will be able to hold a basic conversation on topics of everyday interest, as well as discuss subjects such as family, sport, home, work or their university studies. Special emphasis is placed on enhancing grammar skills and vocabulary through classroom assignments and drills as well as structured exposure to contemporary Russian cultural productions. Materials for analysis and discussion include short literary texts (adapted for the beginners), films, music videos, and Internet resources such as Russian social media.
