Book now / EnquiryThese courses in Russian are meant for those that feel that learning Russian would make a change in their work. For starters, it is expedient to learn how to say hello/goodbye, as well as basic business protocol; once the basics have been mastered, reading and writing come to the fore. Students who have greatly benefitted have been involved in import/export, international negotiations and acquisitions, jobseekers in multinational companies where another language is required, and those working in the international academia and government circuits. Even on our most fundamental beginner's course, students can anticipate ending the course with basic telephone Russian and e-mail Russian skills for communicating, as well as survival Russian if a short visit to the country is needed.
Book now / EnquiryThis set of Russian tutorials are less specific and more targeted at those who want to get a range of different things from learning Russian. Even though all novice students will cover survival Russian: enough Russian to make a visit to the country or make good contacts with the locals, but what do you do from there? It depends on your needs. Those who have benefitted from these courses have been those moving or investing overseas, spouses of overseas nationals, people who love to travel all over the world, those interested in Russian culture, and those who just want to pass a specific examination in Russian.
Book now / EnquiryCourses in Russian are also accessible for 2 or more studying in tandem (Two-to-One Russian Course or Small Group In-Company Russian Course). All those involved must have around the same experience of the language, similar needs of areas of proficiency, and must be able to work at the same time and place. Bookings must be made for all students at the same time. Listen & Learn do not advise classes of more than 6-8 people, although In-Company Taster Russian sessions can be run with as many as 12 people.
