While all beginners level students can expect to cover Survival Russian - required for short visits to a country where English may not be spoken and/or the intention is to make good contacts with the local population, students then generally progress in different directions depending on their needs. Typical students include those buying property overseas, spouses of overseas nationals, people about to set off on that long-awaited world trip, Russian culture enthusiasts and those who are keen to pass a particular Russian examination.

Nottingham
A city in the East Midlands, Nottingham is one of the UK's core cities and has a population of around 275,000. Home to the legend of Robin Hood, Nottingham gained much of its prosperity in ages past from the textile industry - most famously for its production of lace. Many large companies have their headquarters in Nottingham, owing to its central location in the UK and its transport. Also famed for its shopping districts, sizeable event and sporting venues, as well as its two universities, Nottingham is increasingly becoming a major centre for tourism, particularly from the US and the Far East.
