Liden & Denz Language Centre
The language school Liden & Denz Language Centre was founded in St. Petersburg, Russia in 1992. The school is in a prime spot between the Philharmonia and the historical shopping arcade Passage, next to the Grand Hotel Europe, the Russian Museum and very close to numerous theatres, restaurants, cafés and bars. The premises are located in a historical building with a lot of empty space (“shell & core”), which has allowed to build a modern language centre from the ground up.
The school address is: Italianskaya 17, 191186 - St. Petersburg (Russia).

Other comments: You should stay in a host-family, because it's a wonderful opportunity to know more about culture and people and obviously to practise what you've learned at school. They can give you also some good tips what to see!

Other comments: I started to learn Russian in a small group of 6 students - even if there where many students in the school when I came last September. Very good atmosphere, dynamic and devoted teachers. Moreover, the Liden&Denz team is very friendly and it really makes your life easier!

Insider tips about what future students should not miss: I think that everyone should start at the same chronological level. I started at the 10. Chapter of the textbook, while the others were already ahead by 4-5 weeks, starting from the beginning of the book.
Other comments: Excellent school! I will be back, but I'll take a lot of private lessons in order to recover, classes of 10 students are in my opinion excessive for good learning. You waste lots of time!
