Beginning Russian Lamgua

[Anonymous]

I really strongly recommend starting with a tutor. Russian isn't a language you can easily teach yourself. You need to have an understanding of how to pronounce the language correctly from the beginning; otherwise, you're just setting yourself up to unlearn mistakes when you do start with a tutor.

Check your local library's online resources. You may have access to a program like Mango Languages or Rosetta Stone through the library. It's a free way to start while you're looking for classes.

Check out Perspective Russian School online. They are local and they offer Russian as a second language online.

Friend's son is a high schooler and is taking Russian classes with George Mason University. I believe they're online classes. He does them during the school year for a language credit but I suspect GMU must have summer online classes this year.

My kid has no interest in Russian but wanted to learn Japanese and I saw some classes on Outschool.
Good luck in your new journey!

Do we have the same child? Also a native speaker, also have a reluctant son who does not want to learn Russian but is begging for Japanese lessons!

I have a high schooler interested in learning Russian as well. Does anyone have experience with the International Center for Language Studies? Would you recommend ICLS or International Language Institute?
