Students hoping to study Russian can benefit from an Austin Russian course offered by Varsity Tutors. Learning Russian may be difficult for some people, but a course can make the learning process less stressful and confusing. Don't go it alone when trying to study gendered nouns, the Russian alphabet, and pronunciation. Instead, work through these areas of study with the guidance of a Russian course.
Russian is a Slavic language, similar to Bulgarian, Czech, Polish, Slovenian, and Ukrainian. It is also an official language of the United Nations. More than 150 million people are native Russian speakers, with that number going up to 265 million when you include people who speak Russian as a second language. If you want to join this number, a Russian course can provide you with the resources you need to feel more confident in your Russian abilities.
What can I learn in an Austin Russian class?
Whether you are a student at Bowie High School or an adult looking to learn a new language, you can benefit from an Austin Russian class. Learning Russian may be difficult for some native English speakers due to the new alphabet. In your class, you can learn the Cyrillic alphabet to gain a stronger understanding of how to put words together in Russian. You can learn how each letter is pronounced, as well as how various words are pronounced when you sign up for a Russian class.
In addition to learning how to read, write, and speak Russian, you can also learn about Russian literature, history, and culture in your course. Studying the history of Russia through the Russian language may help you feel more confident in college-level history classes. No matter if you're a University of Texas - Austin student majoring in Russian or a high school student with an interest in this culture, you can study famous literature works from Chekhov, Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, and so on.
When you sign up for an Austin Russian class, you're signing up for comprehensive and communicative classes designed to help students work towards their goals. We put instructors through a comprehensive vetting process to make sure each instructor not only has a firm grasp of Russian but also knows how to help students learn. You can feel confident signing up for a Russian class knowing that the classes are led by professional instructors who can help you work through your areas of difficulty.
During your live, online Russian class, you can communicate with your peers and your instructor in real time. If you have a question while the lesson is taking place, don't hesitate to ask your instructor. You can benefit from a quick and relevant response. Not only can this help you learn, but it can also help your fellow students learn. You can even practice communicating in Russian through writing and speaking to brush up on your skills and become more confident in your ability to communicate through this interactive platform. Whether you're learning Russian for fun or for school credit, a Russian class can help you work towards the goals you have set for yourself.
How can I enroll in an Austin Russian course?
Learning Russian is for anyone at any age. You are never too old or too young to study the Cyrillic alphabet, practice reading in Russian, or work on your Russian communication skills. Students at Lake Travis High School, individuals working towards their degree, and adult professionals in the working world can all practice Russian via an Austin Russian course.
At Varsity Tutors, it is our goal to help students work towards their goals. We can connect individuals with online Russian courses that start on a monthly basis. You can jump in at a time that is most convenient for you to learn Russian. In addition to courses starting frequently, there are also courses that meet during various times of the day. Select a morning, afternoon, evening, or even a weekend course to accommodate your needs. We understand that students are busy, whether they're studying for exams, working a full-time job, or putting together their college applications. That is why there are courses that last for two weeks or four weeks: so you can select an option that is most ideal for your learning needs. These courses are all online, which means you don't have to waste time commuting. Instead, make the most of your sparse study time by logging onto your computer, tablet, or smartphone, connecting to the internet, and participating in an Austin Russian course offered by Varsity Tutors!

John: Austin Russian course instructor
I graduated from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in NYC in 2008, the oldest English speaking acting conservatory in the world. I graduated Summa from University of St Thomas with a BA in English, and just wrapped up a MS in Data Science from Northwestern. I'm a huge Red Sox fan and love watching detective shows when I have free time.... Positivity. Always. I believe that if a student is given positive tools and is allowed to understand the material rather than be lectured at, they're more likely to do well in the future.
