Face-to-Face 1-to-1 (Individual) General Russian
These Russian lessons fit a broader spectrum, and can be useful for those who need different things from the language. Most beginner students will have a handle of survival Russian by the end of their lesson, which will provide them with enough Russian to communicate at least at a basic level during short trips to the country, but those who require more would benefit greatly from these sessions. Typical students have been those eager to travel all over the world, those buying overseas property, those with foreign spouses, aficionados of Russian culture and those who just wish to pass a particular Russian exam.

russian Songs
"Ya Soshla S Uma" (All the Things She Said) - t.A.T.u
You’ve probably heard this song (or at least its name) because this is one of the few Russian pieces that was a hit in the USA, and even an English version was made as a result, although it primarily shot to fame for its 2002 video featuring a controversial kiss between two girls. The chorus repeats at least 4 times, so it’s quite easy to pick up some words and phrases (like “running through my head”: А они говорят - виновата сама). Plus, you’ll also have the English version to compare both lyrics in case you have any doubts about your understanding of the song. Listen to this catchy tune here.russian Songs
