Student reviews about "Standard Russian" at EDUCA Russian language school
Hans-Willi
"I had one-to-one tuition this time due to the lack of a suitable group. Otherwise, the premises, small classrooms at Educa allow a maximum of 5 people/group. There are other schools that advertise to have small groups, - however, describe 10 as small ..."
Matthias
"In winter there are only a few students, so instead of booked lessons in a group, I had individual lessons, which of course also has positive sides. Classroom a bit dreary. Technology doesn't work. Teachers mostly female and very friendly and helpful. Very centrally located school. Respond to individual requests. There were several community activities each week."
Hans-Willi
"We were 2-3 students in the group, the rooms are designed for a maximum of 5 in the group, other schools already call 8-10 participants a small group."

Student reviews about "Online lessons" at EDUCA Russian language school
Carmen
"I've been at EDUCA in the spring of 2019 for 4-weeks groups course. I fell in love with the school, my teacher, my host family and of course with the fascinating Saint Petersburg! The school is so friendly and the staff is always ready to help. The teacher I had was very professional, I liked lessons with her so much that when I finally got some spare time, I decided to take online lessons when I got back home. It was very effective for my Russian and as soon as I have spare time again, I will definitely come back to EDUCA, at least for another portion of Skype lessons. But it is worth to visit the school in person. It is wonderful! Thank you EDUCA! "

Student reviews about Homestay
Hans-Willi
"Elderly couple, bought the neighboring apartment and rented it out to students. Breakfast included, kitchen available to cook yourself. The couple tries to look after the students after breakfast and is an interesting conversation partner for Russian culture and history. Because of the location, it makes sense to walk to the school, about 40 minutes without rushing. Plenty of supermarkets and restaurants nearby.
Hans-Willi
"Very pleasant family, will try to stay there again for my next course

EDUCA Russian Language School’s Standard course offers the support and social opportunities that come with group learning experiences. Groups are kept small, which means that you’ll get to know your fellow students, and also that you and your teacher will be able to work together effectively since they will learn your strengths and weaknesses as an individual. Taking advantage of this small class size format, there is a significant focus given to conversation activities - in addition to the formal language skills common to all language courses.
Learning about Russian culture forms a significant part of the course content, which will give you insights into the nation’s musical, social and artistic tendencies. All of this will help you in your goal to understand Russian more quickly and more comprehensively.
Your fees cover: lunch at a local Russian restaurant, a guided tour around St Petersburg, the placement test for your initial group level, a student card that gives you access to certain museums, and the certificate at the end of your course.
