This is a course for people who have never studied Russian. The focus is on speaking and the atmosphere is relaxed. Participants will be given a first taste of the language and they learn some essential words and phrases to greet people, ask about nationality, count and order food and drink. They will also begin to learn the Russian alphabet. The course is not exam-based.

This course is aimed primarily at participants who have taken Beginners' Russian. It continues to be a communicative course with a focus on the practical skills of listening and speaking. Participants will also increase their knowledge of vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation so that they feel more confident when communicating in Russian. Practice continues to be with simple real-life situations, working in pairs and small groups to encourage plenty of listening and speaking practice. The language of instruction will be Russian with some English where appropriate for explanation.

This course follows on from Beginners' Russian 2. The focus continues to focus on real-life communication with students working in pairs and small groups to encourage plenty of listening and speaking practice. Participants will consolidate and build on what they have learned in Part 2, developing vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation, as well as writing short phrases and sentences in Russian.
