11-14 YEARS - BEGINNER 1: The FIRST part of the five-long course long Russian Beginner sequence. 

Materials are not included in the tuition.

Teaching Method: Native-fluency instructors promote the use of Russian in the classroom by using Russian activities, games, songs, as well as visual elements. Instructors use various audio and visual elements that are complementary and inter-related so that the same vocabulary or element of grammar is practiced and reinforced in many different ways to create variety, encourage participation and avoid boredom.
