Russian Language Academy

The school is centrally located in Riga. Good classification through written questionnaire and telephone interview. Excellent lessons in small groups, good support from the teacher. She answered questions willing
I have been to the Baltics many times, but the language course gave me additional insights into the country and its people. It was a nice and very productive time in Riga.

Russian Language Academy

The atmosphere and the welcoming attitude was very uplifting. The teacher was very professional.
I would have appreciated it if there were more students at my level (beginner). You state on the internet site that no prior knowledge is necessary, but I would not have completed the course if I hadn't studied for three months in advance, as, luckily, I had done.

The classes were great and I learned a lot. All the people were very friendly and explained everything to me.
Since I was in Riga in January, the social program was limited, but the school tried to make a suggestion for almost every day - great! The teachers ware very dedicated ... It was just awesome! I organised my accommodation myself.

Lessons are professional and serious; there is sufficient attention for the needs of the students.
I suggest to have more contact about the social program before the start of the lessons. It's then possible to choose from many possibilities.
