Overview
What you will study
Known for logical sentence structures, poetry and literature, Russian is a language worth uncovering – and it’s not as complicated as you may think.
You’ll start by getting to grips with the Russian alphabet, using the Cyrillic script, taking time to recognise and practise each letter’s sound.
As the year progresses and your confidence grows, you’ll work with more complex grammatical structures, as we introduce you to reflexive verbs and adjectives.
The focus of the Russian Beginners course offered by City, University of London is highly practical, covering topics useful in daily conversation or for travel, including booking hotel rooms, ordering food, shopping for souvenirs and asking for directions.
