Our approach to
teaching
|
|
The aim is comprehensive culture-based language training, taking
all four major elements of communication into account – listening,
speaking, reading, and writing. Role play, picture work,
prepared topics,situational dialogs,simulated telephone conversations,
realistic project assignments, varied and diversified exercises
in the use of language as well as listening and reading comprehension,
interesting and attractive grammar and
vocabulary work help the student assimilate all aspects
of the Russian language. Pronunciation, conversation,
grammar and vocabulary are taught specifically in the context. Students take
an active part in the classes,where every effort is made to get them to
speak and fluently and write with accuracy.
Non-academic indoor and outdoor activities play
a significant role in the academic flow.
