Benefits of our Russian Language Courses ?
Russian has over 258 million total speakers worldwide and 155 million native speakers which is around 2.4% of the world’s population. It is the world’s seventh-most spoken language by number of native speakers, and the world’s eighth-most spoken language by total number of speakers. In addition, Russian is one of two official languages aboard the International Space Station, as well as one of the six official languages of the United Nations.
Only around 5% of the Russian population can speak English. Once you learn Russian, the way you experience travel to Russian-speaking countries will never be the same. Knowing the Russian language lets you sympathize with the people who speak it – both Russian speakers in Russia and in your own city. <
Lastly, Russian is not difficult to learn. Russian uses the Cyrillic alphabet and contains only 33 letters, while English uses the Latin alphabet and contains 26 letters. Besides this, the Russian language does not contain articles and realize English has 12 tenses while Russian, on the other hand, has only three tenses: the past, the present, and the future.

Latest Reviews From Students

My husband and I had a great experience with Tobian Language School. We both have been taking a course together to learn Russian. Our teacher Natalie is so understanding and patient with us. She takes time to help us understand and even tailors her lessons to our own interest. Tobias is also a great communicator and quick to help if you have any questions.
