The only discussion is on the book. It would not have been difficult to deliver it on the second day of the right level.
City/place
I love Moscow. It's spectacular. Plus really safe and clean. I was traveling alone, it was excellent.
Quality of teaching / language progress
I had booked a group course and we were two, so that was great. But the book was too easy. Fortunately, the teachers made photocopies of other material. But it wouldn't have been difficult to give us a higher level book :(

Other comments
I enjoyed the course very much and I would love to go back or to recommend it. However, I would like to address three points that seem important to me:
1) In my opinion, a language course for adults should be designed differently than a course for juniors or a language course in high school. I understand that beginners need to learn conjugation, grammar and vocabulary. But there is more to it; sometimes it felt like "drilling" in high school.
2) I expected to be in a group course (6-8 people). However, during the first week we were only three students and the next 2 weeks, I was the only student. I understand that there cannot be a group if there are no other students with the same level. But I was not informed about that.
